Describe: examples, definition,? 2
3
Continuous information An infinite number of divisions exist between any two measurements…weight now, wait a bit……weight now…the difference was continuous, not discrete (just gained a pound!!) Time is also continuous (Good representation: An analog watch), as is sound loudness 3
4
4. Which is continuous? More accurate? Easiest to store in computers?

Number of times a sound wave repeats in a second is its frequency Measure frequency in Cycles/second-- Hertz: Hz Named after H. R Hertz 6
7
7 A 1Hz (cycle) Assume x-axis (time) is one second The red is the analog (continuous) sound The black is the digitized sound Sample Rate? (approx.)
8
Converting analog to digital Sample/measure at a given sample rate, determine the associated value Convert the value into binary (0,1): 8
9
When something vibrates to make a sound, it pushes the air towards you and pulls it away from you many times a second.. You hear both the push and the pull, because both move your ear drum. Negative amplitude occurs when air being pulled away Positive when air pulling inward By moving back and forth, the speaker increases and decreases the air pressure in front of it thus creating sound waves 9
10
2-step process: 1. Sample/measure at a known frequency, (Hz, cycles/second) 2. Assign a value (called bit depth ) to the sample (process called quantizing) 10
11
The amplitude of the analog signal is sampled at uniform intervals, and each sample is quantized to the nearest value within a range Example: Assume 1Hz cycle (In real life, couldn't hear freq that low) Sample 16 times /second… sample rate Range 0-10 …may be called the bit depth. Graphically: 11
12
12 Technically ½ a cycle The blue line is an example of the audio signal, and the jagged red line would be digital representation of that ½ cycle. List the sample values for the first 5 samples...in decimal ?
13
13 1 Hz
14
The amount of computer space gathered in each sample. The higher the number, the more precise the information, the better the sound For each sample determine a value (bit depth) the number of bits of information in each sample An 8 bit depth means each sample value is between 0 and ? 16 bit samples result in values between 0 and ? 14
15
15 Increase the bit depth. The more bits that are used, the more precise the representation of each sample. 2.) Increase sample rate 1.)
16
16 1.) Increase the bit depth. The more bits that are used, the more precise the representation of each sample. 2.)Increase the sample rate The more often you sample the most accurate the final result
17
Let’s say we want to record (digitize) music Humans can hear sound between 20 and 20,0000 Hz To capture the sound, Sample 44,100 times per second. This rate is the result of Nyquist’s Rate, aka Nyquist’s rule, or Nyquist’s theorem Sample 2 x highest frequency Music frequency 20-20,000 Hz Sample rate then 2 *20,000=44,000 times/second…extra 100 due to Sony Voice range is ? cycles/second?(Google it) Therefor: what sample rate should we use if recording voice: 17
18
Sample size is 16 bits…bit depth 2 ^ 16 = 65,536 possible values Convert the amplitude to a value between zero and 65,636 Sample rate 44,100 Hz 18
19
200,000 Hz Dolphins 18,500 Highest frequency heard by average woman 17,500 Highest frequency heard by average man 4096Hz Highest note on a piano 4000 The most irritating or activating frequency (chainsaw freq) (approximate) also see also see And http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNf9nzvnd1k Write down the value when you can no longer hear the sound My speakers only go down to 80Hz..were for effects speakers in home theater…lower frequencies to sub-woofer 19
20
Should have 3 speakers in the front Two rear speakers Sub woofer (called 5.1) Sound < 80Hz is sent to the sub That’s why the speakers in our room only play down to 80 Hz max 20
