Highest quality music format.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Music<\/p>\n

Audio Formats<\/p>\n

\"audio<\/p>\n

As a rule, today the term “audio” refers to everything that is connected with sound, whether it be playback, processing, mixing, mastering or listening to recordings. But few people know that since their inception, audio formats have constantly undergone many significant changes, sometimes for the better and then for the worse. The problem is that, compared to the original formats, the creators of the new formats tried to improve the sound quality, and this invariably affected the size of the played file. Downsizing, on the contrary, led to a loss of quality. But it was not always like this.<\/p>\n

The first audio format in computer games
\nThe first mention of computer sound came from the creation of primitive games at the time, in which sound was played through the system’s speaker. But no matter how hard the developers of such software (software) have been, the required quality could not be achieved, compatible with tape recorders or reel or cassette recordings.<\/p>\n

That is why many manufacturers have started looking for solutions on how to change the audio format so that the sound is natural. Frankly, this has led to more competition than we have now. This applies not only to the material being played, but also to studio sound, live performances, quality or basic parameter settings in terms of knowledge of physics, acoustics, etc.<\/p>\n

The appearance of the WAV format
\nIt is believed that the first full quality of audio formats was associated with the appearance of the standard and the .wav file extension (this abbreviation was formed from the English word “wave” or wave). Anyway, he became the first-born that could be processed into computer programs on a professional level.<\/p>\n

These files already had their own characteristics: sample rate, sound depth, bit rate, and much more. This sound was even compatible with what could be obtained after processing a conventional audio CD using certain instruments such as a conventional equalizer. But the size was clearly unjustified. For example, a three-minute track could be 20 to 50 MB.<\/p>\n

CD discs
\nThe audio CD format, or rather the .cda extension, appeared around the same time.<\/p>\n

Unlike “wave” files saved on the hard disk, they cannot be edited. Today it can be opened in an audio processing program, reformatted by audio transcoding, and saved anywhere other than on a CD.<\/p>\n

MP3 codec
\nWith the advent of the LAME MP3 Encoder codec, the music industry experienced a real shock, because those files “weighed” dozens of times less than the same WAV file. Even a five minute compose at full compression rarely exceeds the size of 5-7MB. Agree, a significant advance, not to mention the fact, allowed not only to adjust the above characteristics, but also some additional parameters in the form of ID3 tags, which contained information, for example, about the artist, album name and tracks. , the release date.<\/p>\n

This type has become the most popular. Look, almost the entire Internet is full of this universal format. In general, we can say that the MP3 audio format has become a true revolution in sound. It remains one of the most popular and in-demand so far, even though it is being replaced by other types of audio. But more on that later.<\/p>\n

AIFF files
\nAudio formats have a different style. The so-called .aiff format was originally created for use on Macintosh computer systems.<\/p>\n

Only much later did a transformation take place, which predetermined the compatibility of sound formats with their use on platforms of different operating systems.<\/p>\n

OGG format
\nMusic in audio.ogg format is also quite common. This standard was developed by Vorbis. However, it should be noted that it has a number of significant disadvantages. First of all, it is an unreasonable load on the computer’s system resources, despite the minimal size. Second, the use of your own codecs and decoders, which the system may not install automatically. For example, when working in the FL Studio Producer Edition (or XXL) program in versions prior to 9.xx, there was a folder with an installation file in .inf format, which had to be activated for installation after installing the main application manually. (Otherwise, presets in this format just won’t play.)<\/p>\n

However, these types of audio formats are now found, and the sound itself looks great.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
