In class
- Review and discuss rough movie edits.
- Digital Theory 2
- Listen to Beethoven examples (Sample Rate and Bit Depth)
- Discuss Digital Errors
- Look at sampling circuit
- Quiz Three Next
- The quiz will cover week digital theory 1Audio Digitization 2 and chapter 3 from Sound Design for Interactive Multimedia
Three types of digital errors
- Quantization Error - Difference between actual analog value and quantized digital value
- Aliasing - Undersampling
- Jitter - Time errors
Quantization
Quantization Signal Processing
Discrete levels based on the number of bits
Analogy
Analog is like a bucket of water while digital is like a bucket of ball bearings. Analog has an infinite resolution while a digital system can only resolve thins to finite values.
"...if sheets of typing paper were stacked 22 feet, a single sheet of paper would represent one quantization level in a 16-bit system. In a 20-bit system, the stack would reach 349 feet. In a 24-bit system, the stack would tower 5592 feet in height - over a mile high." -Principals of Digital Audio, Ken C. Pohlmann McGraw Hill
- The more bits you have the more dynamic range you have. Each bit is equal to approximately 6 more dB. 16 dB s about 120 dB of dynamic range.
Quantization Error
Quantization error = the difference between the actual analog value and the quantized digital value.
The less bits that you have to quantize a signal the larger the quantization error will be. More Bits = Less Quantization Error
Quantization Error is also known as Signal
Dither
Dither = noise added to signal
addition of a small amount of white noise to the signal to reduce signal-to-error distortion ...also aid in processing and bit depth conversion... see dither article
READ dither Article

Aliasing
Aliasing = error caused by under sampling -- cars wheels in movies
Sampling Frequency/Aliasing
Get smapling gif sampling1.gif (39564 bytes)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist-Shannon_sampling_theorem
Nyquist Theorem -- The sampling frequency determines the high frequency limit.
Fh = Fs/2
- <math>f_s > 2 f_H\,</math> (Nyquist rate)
Fh if the highest frequency you want to record and Fs is the Nyquist Frequency or Sample Rate (I can't get the wiki math functions working yet)
Sampling frequency = discrete time frequency of the sampler
44.1 kHz = CD audio
square wave @ 20KHz won't make it w/ a 44.1 kHz sampler
Need a brick wall filter at the input of the sampling circuit with a cut off frequency of 1/2 the sampling rate
Jitter
Error due to clock synchronization...
Signal Flow
low pass filter (ideally a brick wall filter) --> AD Converter --> DA converter --> low pass filter
