It is part of Audio Sampling. In other words .. when audio is First recorded on to a hard disk, the bit rate at which it has been recorded. The sampling rate usually goes by 16bit 44.1 khz (which is the regular CD sampling rate) to something like 24 bit 192 khz.
If you can picture the Sound Curve graph with TIME on the horizontal plane and SIZE of the sample on the vertical plane and for the CD sampling rate 16bit 44.1 khz The Audio is recorded 44,100 times within a second. And each time it is recorded, the value of sound is stored in a 16 bit field. IF the Bit rate is higher, it means the value is even more closer to reality. Similarly, if the number of samples recorded within a second is more, it is more closer to the actual sound. Like Sunil said, Once the sound has been captured at a lower rate and resampled at a higher sampling rate, it really does not do any good. Hope it is not confusing .... cheers Prashant --- In [email protected], "Sunil VG" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > To put it in a nutshell, 24-bit audio has better resolution than 16-bit. > Theoretically, the resolution is supposed to be 250 times more!
