Analog to Digital Conversion

  • Artikel

Steve Rowe (test lead on the sound team) points to a great article from Ars Technica on D2A:

If you want digital audio in a computer, you have to get it from somewhere.  Usually that means taking analog sound out of the air and turning it into the bits that a computer can understand.  Ars Technica gives us another installment of the AudioFile. This one covers the subject of Analog to Digital Conversion.

Well worth reading.

    Totally off-topic, but I read your post on "Save the Blibbet", and I've noticed that the Blibbet seems to be making a comeback as a window sticker in several cafeterias (32, 112, and maybe others).  It's about 1-2 feet in diameter. I wonder who is behind this ?

    Nik, I've been wondering the same thing.  But I have no idea.

    "I wonder who is behind this ?" I thought that behind a window sticker there would be a window?  And if you're using a sufficiently recent version of Linux or Windows then you can check for yourself by inspecting the partially obscured window?

    Norman - we're talking physical windows here, not virtual ones.

    Larry, I believe Norman was trying to be funny :)

    Yup.  I submitted a comment containing just one word, "Whoosh", but it looks like that was considered spammy.
