Bit Depth Digital Audio

 

A representation of sound in the form of an electrical voltage that can be processed and analyzed. The process of converting sound waves into a digital form that can be stored or manipulated by a computer.
The number of cycles or waves occurring in one second, determining the pitch of a sound. The maximum extent of vibration or oscillation in a sound wave, representing the loudness or volume of the sound.
The number of samples of a sound wave that are taken per second to convert it into a digital form. A graphical representation of a sound wave showing its amplitude and frequency variations over time.
Sound represented in a binary format consisting of discrete samples taken at regular intervals. The number of bits used to represent the amplitude of a sample in digital audio, determining its dynamic range and resolution.

 

Analog-To-Digital Conversion Condenser Microphone
Dynamic Microphone Frequency Response
Phantom Power Diaphragm

 

A type of microphone that uses a capacitor to convert sound into an electrical signal. The process of converting an analog audio signal into a digital form suitable for computer processing.
The range of frequencies a microphone can accurately capture and reproduce. A type of microphone that uses electromagnetic induction to convert sound into an electrical signal.
The thin membrane in a microphone that vibrates in response to sound waves and converts the vibrations into an electrical signal. The electrical power required by condenser microphones to operate, typically provided by an audio interface or mixer.
