| Any discussion of sound, regardless of whether the sound is music, speech, or sound effect, is based on the concept of sound waves. A sound wave is a physical disturbance, which we interpret as sound. A sound card contains both an Analog/Digital converter for recording sound and a Digital/Analog Converter for playing it back.
Recording Quality
The sequence of the sampled values represents the sound, whether it's music or speech. The closer together the samples are taken, the better the resulting quality of our recording.
What You Need:
- A computer capable of playing & recording sound.
- A recording source, such as a microphone, audiotape, or CD-ROM.
- Sound Software such as Sound Recorder (free with Mac/Windows).
With Sound Recorder and the CD Player open side by side:
- Get the CD you want to play and put it in your CD-ROM player.
- When your favorite track is playing, switch to Sound Recorder and press the record button, wait for a while then press stop, if everything went correctly, you should now have recorded a sample from the CD.
- To save that sample, just go to the file menu and press save (many audio CDs are copyrighted).
