Description

In signal processing, sampling is the reduction of a continuous-time signal to a discrete-time signal. A common example is the conversion of a sound wave to a sequence of "samples". A sample is a value of the signal at a point in time and/or space; this definition differs from the term's usage in statistics, which refers to a set of such values.

A sampler is a subsystem or operation that extracts samples from a continuous signal. A theoretical ideal sampler produces samples equivalent to the instantaneous value of the continuous signal at the desired points.

The original signal can be reconstructed from a sequence of samples, up to the Nyquist limit, by passing the sequence of samples through a type of low-pass filter called a reconstruction filter.

16 bit 44.1 khz, vs. 24 bit 96 khz monitors

I am currently looking to upgrade the way I mix music. Currently, I have a fast track ultra and I'm just using a pair of 50$ monitor headphones. I have done test recordings of 16 bit, 44.1 Khz vs. 24 bit 96 khz recordings, and I cannot hear a shred of difference. (I know my fast track ultra is capable of recording that bit rate). So I'm thinking it's the fact that I use crappy headphones.

Record at 24bit - 48KHz = play back is sharper

Hello,

Does anyone know why this happens: e.g. I record a note (D) on my flute at 24bit - 48KHz, it plays back as the same note in Cubase 4 LE then when I mix the track down to 16bit - 44KHz and play the new .wav file in windows media player or VLC the sound is much sharper in pitch nearly a F.

does PRO TOOLS LE work on windows vista home premium 32 bit?

does PRO TOOLS LE work on windows vista home premium 32 bit?
I'm going to buy the Digidesign 002 interface with pro tools le software but I'm unsure whether my vista home premium 32 bit will support it, as Digidesign won't seem to commint to supporting it
appreciate any help
thanks

OK So recording in 96k is awesome...

Except it makes my computer cry and cut its wrists. :D It's so nice though, mixes sound brighter and livelier, and I can actually keep the bass frequencies in and not have to make super heavy cuts all the time just to attain clarity. Sorry this isn't much of a forum topic, but all my old recordings were in 44.1 so I felt I had to share it with you all. LOL

Windows XP 64bit

Hi there.
I have recently acquired a new PC running a dual core processor and 8GB of RAM.
I've installed XP 64bit as it's the only operating system that will support this.
Does anyone here have experience with 64bit?
I mainly use Sonar, Nuendo and Reason, and need to know if there's anything I should take into account before I try configuring it.
