●● microphone
Answer: converts the acoustical energy that is sound into an electrical
signal that can be delivered to either an analog or a digital device
●● analog and digital
Answer: recordings start the same way; with sound
●● digital mixer or A/D converter
Answer: to change the analog signal to a digital signal it will need to
pass through an analog to digital converter, commonly referred to as a
●● sample rate (44.1 khz, 48 khz,etc.)
bit rate (usually 16 or 24 bits)
Answer: the two most important factors in the quality of the new digital
audio are
●● low sampling rate
Answer: approximation
, ●● high sampling rate
Answer: smooth
●● the bit rate
Answer: represents the amount of information, or detail that is stored per
unit of time of a recording
●● digital court reporting programs
Answer: sample at a rate fast enough, thousands of times a second, so
speech sounds are smooth and correctly represented
●● when selecting the microphones that you will use there are several
variables: these variables include
Answer: Microphone type (dynamic or condenser)
microphone pick-up pattern
microphone size and stands
microphone cost
●● for the purpose of digital reporting, AAERT recommends that you
slect
Answer: dynamic, condenser, or a combination of dynamic and
condenser microphones. Both of these microphone types work in a
unique way but can generate a high quality audio reproduction
