MULTITRACK DIGITAL RECORDING & PRODUCTION What is Digital Recording? Digital recording is the conversion of sound waves to a binary signal. All electronic equipment produces digital signals. An analogue input (a constant variable defined with infinite accuracy) is first directed through a filter that cuts out any frequencies higher than half of the sampling rate, due to the fact that the signal cannot be held and reproduced before the following sequence of events. Then the signal is sampled. An analogue to digital converter then plots the signal into binary code in a parallel data form. This parallel binary code is converted into serial data. This is done to store the serial data onto a storage format such as DAT tape, CD, hard disk, etc. Now that the data has been stored it can be converted from serial to parallel with a digital to analogue converter. The parallel signal comes out...
