H. C. Papadopoulos - Digital Audio Broadcasting Simultaneous broadcasting of analog FM and digital audio signals by means of adaptive precanceling techniques, IEEE Trans. To ensure that the digital data in these bands is recoverable, the simulcasting transmitter precancels the effective analog FM contribution to the the digital receiver from these bands. One common aspect of all viable methods is that the digital data is inserted at very low power levels compared to the host analog FM signal, so as not to appreciably degrade the performance of the millions of analog FM receivers already in existence. www.ee.umd.edu /~babis/iboc.html   (465 words)

Television Production: Digital Audio for TV and Radio he optimum audio levels for digital audio signals are different than those for analog signals. Unlike analog audio, where exceeding the maximum level will result in signal distortion, in digital audio you might not notice mild clipping (the elimination of occasional audio peaks). People working with digital audio should at least be aware of the potential problem, and before a video project is started, consult an engineer about the possible problems that could arise in the conversion process. www.cybercollege.com /tvp042b.htm   (1347 words)

Digital signal processing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Since the goal of DSP is usually to measure or filter continuous real-world analog signals, the first step is usually to convert the signal from an analog to a digital form, by using an analog to digital converter. DSP and analog signal processing are subfields of signal processing. Often, the required output signal is another analog output signal, which requires a digital to analog converter. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Digital_signal_processing   (1390 words)

Analog vs. Digital - Grunt Productions So all digital audio needs to do is to continue to increase bit rate resolution capability, improve the bottom end and digital sound will eventually surpass even the best analog has right now. The standard party line on this subject appears to be this: digital audio is more accurate but harsher, whereas analog audio is warmer but noisier. Analog audio utilizes electrical voltage induced waveforms to reproduce recorded sound. www.gruntproductions.com /recorded/analog_vs_digital.htm   (567 words)

audioMIDI.com : Analog vs. Digital Analog recording uses audio tape, which is a very thin strip of plastic, coated with magnetic particles. When digital audio is played from the digital system, the binary data is converted into an electrical signal (so your audio speakers can monitor the signal) by a digital-to-analog converter (D/A). Analog recording suffers from limitations such as saturation, tape noise, flutter, generational loss and expensive hardware. www.audiomidi.com /classroom/audio/analog_vs_digital.cfm   (699 words)

What's the difference between digital and analog recording? Analog recording is the process of storing the constant audio signal (some refer to it as "infinite" sampling, when comparing it to digital). This generally means that studios that use high-quality analog recording equipment tend to charge more than studios that use digital recording equipment. Digital recording is a sampling process, which means that "samples" of the audio signal are being stored - not the entire audio signal. www.jmudloff.org /recording/digitalvsanalog.html   (580 words)

What's the difference between digital and analog recording? Analog recording is the process of storing the constant audio signal (some refer to it as "infinite" sampling, when comparing it to digital). Digital audio is much easier to manipulate than analog audio (for me, at least).

Digital CD Audio Instead of using the digital to analog converters built into the CD-ROM drive (which may be of questionable quality to audio purists), the audio is read as digital data, much like a normal file would be read off of a CD. If the user's CPU is able to support digital CD audio the option of doing it the old analog way has been removed for a consistent user interface between different Macintoshes. Pure digital data is read from the CD, played through the Sound Manager as a PCM (Pulse Code Modulation -- standard uncompressed audio) data stream, and then sent out to the speakers (where your ears require that it be converted back to an analog signal). developer.apple.com /technotes/tn/tn1187.html   (580 words)

Rogers Digital - Sound on Analog range vs. Digital Range? - Digital Forums In your case I would expect the reciver to change to analog audio input when you change your receiver to VCR2 input as long as there was no digital audio connected to a digital audio input port that was associated with the VCR2 input. However I agree with 57 that you should be using one A/V input for all the signals from the STB as long as your receiver has a remote control toggle to switch between analog and digital audio input. It sounds to me that you have the STB's video output connected directly to the TV and the audio output of the STB connected to the A/V receiver using two different A/V inputs on the receiver. www.digitalhomecanada.com /forum/showthread.php?t=3854   (3104 words)

A Digital Audio Primer Digital audio can be copied from one digital device to another without any loss of information, unlike analog recording, where information is lost and noise introduced with every copy. For years, audiophiles and engineers have debated the merits of digital audio versus high-end analog systems, and to this day, there are audiophiles who swear by their analog systems. In digital audio, the representation of the audio signal is no longer directly analogous to the sound wave. www.teamcombooks.com /mp3handbook/11.htm   (3372 words)

Audio Glossary - Blaze Audio The bit depth is the level of detail at which a computer samples analog audio to create digital audio. Digital audio is audio that has been converted into a series of ones and zeros that can be understood by a computer. Digital, or digitized, sound is easier to reproduce and manipulate without loss in quality than analog. www.blazeaudio.com /glossary.html   (2489 words)

DAT Heads FAQ One of the biggest advantages of digital audio is that many performance parameters that are difficult to achieve in analog machines are perfected beyond the point of measurability in digital machines. A digital audio system typically involves analog to digital conversion, storage of digital data, digital signal processing, and digital to analog conversion. Digital audio actually requires much greater bandwidth than analog audio. www.minidisc.org /dat-heads-faq.html   (18632 words)

AudioVideo101.com - Audio/Video Dictionary Digital audio signals are decoded by a digital-to-analog converter. High bit-rate, high sampling-rate digital signals are capable of producing better sound quality than any analog audio format (although some people feel analog phonograph records produce purer sound than current compact discs, higher resolution digital audio signals provide the additional resolution to be a superior sound reproduction technology regardless of who is listening). Digital audio can be compressed to save space as in digital 5.1 surround sound systems. www.audiovideo101.com /dictionary/digital-audio.asp   (18632 words)

Fanfare FM - DAB Digital Radio News At the other end would be a digital to analog (D/A) converter which would bring the digital signal back to analog so it can be heard on the audio system in its original, analog form. Because digital technology has only been used recently in the recording industry, many compact disk recordings are made from from tapes and transcriptions, all of which were recorded originally in analog. The concept of 'digital radio' (DAR) while it may be in the back of every broadcasting executive's mind right now, is certainly not in evidence anywhere else, such as 'on-air' personnel singing the "I can't wait to sound like a CD" song. www.fanfare.com /dab-nws.html   (2440 words)

XMFan.com :: #1 Fan Site of XM Satellite Radio :: Digital Audio for AM and FM Stations Since the HD Radio broadcast works in conjunction with the ANALOG broadcast I don't see this happening as the drop in commercials would be on the Analog broadcast as well. I'm wondering what bandwith the digital signal will have if AM and FM stations are broadcasting it on top of their analog signals. Digital Audio is going to be nothing like XM, instead it will be your own station (with all the same commercials and talk) just it will sound better (Although not as good as XM) www.xmfan.com /viewtopic.php?t=5384   (1864 words)

Glossary Of Audio/Video Terms In audio, saturation is a condition that occurs when an analog tape becomes fully magnetized and an increase in signal input level does not produce a corresponding increase in recorded level; saturation can also occur in the magnetic structure of the tape heads. bias: In analog audio tape recording, an ultrasonic tone applied during recording to reduce distortion; in amplifiers, a small current applied to a tube or transistor to reduce crossover distortion. In audio, the basic state is defined as either ordinary air pressure (without sound) or its electrical equivalent: a constant-level (DC) signal, often 0 volts, or ground. www.jasonlorette2.50megs.com /photo2.html   (14702 words)

Analog to Digital Converter with 16 bits and 448000 Samples per second based in the Bt878A Since the audio data path operates in continuous transfer mode (no sync gaps), both the analog and the digital audio inputs can be used for other data capture applications. When Brooktree (now Conexant) designed this new device, they included a build-in low frequency ADC, with the objective of digitalize the sound signals (and audio sub carriers) coming from the tuner to be later on demodulated by software (obtaining the FM Stereo, TV Stereo, RDS, MTS, etc.) using the operating system driver. The /dev/dsp1 is the I2S digital audio interface and the /dev/dsp2 is the Bt878A's ADC, the one we will use. www.domenech.org /bt878a-adc/index-e.htm   (2173 words)

Compact disc - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A device that turns an analog audio signal into PCM audio, which in turn is changed into an analog video signal is called a PCM adapter. The exact sampling rate of 44.1 kHz is inherited from a method of converting digital audio into an analog video signal for storage on video tape, which was the most affordable way to store it at the time the CD specification was being developed. A user-recordable CD for data storage, CD-R, was introduced in the early 1990s, and it became the de facto standard for exchange and archiving of computer data and music. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Audio_CD   (3737 words)

Encyclopedia: Digital Audio Tape DAT was not the first digital audio tape; an early form known as pulse-code modulation (PCM) was used in Japan to produce analog phonograph records in the early 1970s using a videotape recorder for its transport, but it was not developed into a consumer product. Digital Audio Tape (DAT or R-DAT) is a signal recording and playback medium developed by Sony and Philips in the mid1980s.
