COMPRESSION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Increasing the sample rate means the analogue recording is sampled more often?
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It’s measured in “samples per second” and is usually expressed in kiloHertz (kHz), a unit meaning 1, 000 times per second. Audio CDs, for example, have a sample rate of 44.1kHz, which means that the analog signal is sampled 44, 100 times per second.

Detailed explanation-2: -Increasing the sampling rate can improve the quality of the resulting signal, but it also increases the computational requirements. This is why many digital audio applications use a lower sampling rate than the standard 44.1 kHz.
