4-1 Flashcards
Quantization represents…
The number of bits taken per sample affects dynamic range, noise, distortion and level component.
sampling represents…
Time component (example is snapshots per second) sampling=x while resolution= y.; The rate determines frequency response: ability to pick up bandwidth
Harry Nyquist discovered…
Sample rate has to be twice the highest frequency (bandwidth)
In analog recording, frequency is the…
Time compenent= x (amplitude is level comopent= y)
MDM recorders are distinguished by the…
