Given an analog sound file, explain the major processes for digitizing that file. If the MP3 sound file format is used, explain how does it reduce the file size while maintaining the audio quality.
(Use your own words for answering)
Analog and digital sound:
Digitization of sound:
The process which converts the vibrations of sound into a digital/electrical signal is called as digitization.In more simple words we an say digitization of sound is the process of converting analog audio to digital audio.
Waveform ---->After Digitization---->Combination of 1's and 0's(binary code) |
Processes involved in digitization of sound:
Let's get into deep about all above mentioned processes.
PAM:
Pulse amplitude modulation is one of the pulse modulation in which signal is sampled at regular intervals and each sample is made proportional to the amplitude of modulating signal
PCM:
A pulse code modulation(PCM) is atwo step process which involves,
Binary encoding of signals in PCM:
The integer numbers are converted into 0's and 1's that is into binary form.Finally the 1's and 0's now contain the audio information encoded in a form that is processed by a computer.
example:9=1001(in binary form).
Now the last part of your question:
The MP3 format is a lossy compressed audio format.It is compressed using lossy compression which reduces file size and reduces the sound quality to some extent but in most cases we don't experience any difference as MP3 is popular used audio format throughout the world.The main motive of mp3 sound is to cut out all the sound data which exists above the hearing range of most normal people and to ultimately reduce the quality of audio that aren't as clear to hear and then compress all other audio data as much as possible with the efficient way

What is a myocardial infarction (MI) and what are some of the major causes? Explain why they are felt to contribute to an MI. How does lifestyle play a role? Explain why it is felt they play a role. What are the signs (objective changes in the body, e.g. fever, rash, that can be detected) and symptoms (subjective changes, e.g. pain, that are personally experienced by the patient) of a myocardial infarction? How would they be different if the person...
Title: Partners Health Care Systems (PHS): Transforming Health Care Services Delivery through Information Management According to government sources, U.S. expenditures on health care in 2009 reached nearly $2.4 trillion dollars ($2.7 trillion by the end of 2010).[1] Despite this vaunting national level of expenditure on medical treatment, death rates due to preventable errors in the delivery of health services rose to approximately 98,000 deaths in 2009.[2] To address the dual challenges of cost control and quality improvement, some have argued...
Assignment 4 Real Deal: Crier On Us Some word games, like Scrabble, require rearranging a combination of letters to make a word. This type of arrangement is generally referred to as an anagram, it's known as a permutation in mathematics. This assignment will give you some experience thinking about and writing recursive functions. Write a C++ program that searches for ``anagrams'' in a dictionary. An anagram is a word obtained by scrambling the letters of some string. For example, the...

This week, you will start a course project. For this project, you will design and develop a small website for a travel company. You will develop this website across the span of the course, building new project components each week, until you have a live, hosted website at the end of the course. This project is designed to replicate real-life situations where the clients provide only a few of their requirements and expect a prototype to be developed. Scenario Express...
i need a drawing of a concept map for this article. The format of the concept map should be the is shown below, pick one that is suitable for this article. The concept map should be related to this article with explanation For a start, male & female African elephants (Elephas maximus) differ in tusk development. Most males have tusks, while many females are tuskless, or have small tusks. (This suggests that the genetic contol of tusk development must be...

TRUE OR FALSE 1. Complex applicant selection systems are most often found in larger organizations. 2. In structurally complex organizations with many job titles but very few occupants, the number of years needed to pay back the money invested in a complex selection system almost always justifies its initial expense 3. One of the most significant environmental influences on selection is the size, composition, and availability of local labor markets. 4. When unemployment rates are low, it may be difficult...
