3 Analog to digital converter Digital to analog converter Recording and playing sound Computer 10010110 (150) 11001001 (201) 11000111 (199) … Computer 10010110 (150) 11001001 (201) 11000111 (199) …

4 Zoom in – it is connected dots

5 9 samples in.0002 seconds 45,000 samples per second Sampling rate of 45 kHz

6 Increase sample rate → quality ↑ file size ↑

7 Each sample produces a number 45,000 numbers every second But How big (how many bits) is each number?

8 Increase sample size → quality ↑ file size ↑ (Sample “size” and sample “depth” mean the same thing).

9 Edit > Preferences > Quality Set default sample rate and size

10 Set sample rate and size

12 A few questions At a sampling rate of 8,000 16-bit mono samples per second, what would be the file size for a one minute recording? How much larger would a stereo recording be? How much larger would the file size be if we were to sample at 48,000 samples per second? How much larger would the file size be if the samples were 32 bits each?
