Conclusion Some microphones use induction to create an electrical signal. Some speakers use the electrical signal to create movement using the reverse of the effect. The result is sound going one way or the other. 11/26/2018 Storage ... completion

Better Nyquist Sampling Theorem: if all significant frequencies of a signal are less than B and if we sample the signal with a frequency 2B or higher, we can exactly reconstruct the signal. anything sampling rate less than 2B will lose information 11/26/2018 Storage ... completion

MP3 - Simple Collect a “small” region of a musical signal which is periodic. Take the Fourier Transform. Remove any frequencies that we can’t hear. Remove frequencies that mask other frequencies. Remove soft frequency components that are drowned out by louder frequencies. Remove frequency ranges that the brain won’t hear anyway. 11/26/2018 Storage ... completion
Digitizing The sampling rate is usually taken to be 44 kbs. This is twice the frequency that we can hear. The number of BITS requited for this process depends on the number of bits used to encode each volume. I really don’t understand much about this! 11/26/2018 Storage ... completion
MP3 Save what is left In digital form. This is the MP3 file. There is MUCH more than this in the actual process! 11/26/2018 Storage ... completion
