A good example of the deliberate creation of sonic artifacts is the addition of grainy pops and clicks to a recent recording in order to make it sound like a vintage vinyl record. Flanging and distortion were originally regarded as sonic artifacts; as time passed they became a valued part of pop music production methods.
A compression artifact (or artefact) is a noticeable distortion of media (including images, audio, and video) caused by the application of lossy compression. Lossy data compression involves discarding some of the media's data so that it becomes small enough to be stored within the desired disk space or transmitted ( streamed ) within the ...
Devices based on Google's Android platform support Ogg Vorbis media files. [56] [57] Digital audio players such as Cowon's D2 and iAudio X5 ship with Ogg Vorbis support. Samsung YP series of digital audio players [58] ships with Ogg Vorbis support. The majority of iriver devices provide Ogg Vorbis support up to Q10 bitrates. [59] [60] [61] (as ...
When recording through an audio interface, insufficient computer performance or audio driver issues can cause clicks, pops and dropouts. They can result from improper clock sources [3] and buffer size. Also, clicks can be caused by electric devices near the computer or by faulty audio or mains cables. [4]
Sonic artifact, in sound and music production, sonic material that is accidental or unwanted, resulting from the editing of another sound. Visual artifact, in imaging, any unwanted visual alteration introduced by the imaging equipment. Compression artifact, in computer graphics, distortion of media by the data compression.
Anti-aliasing means removing signal components that have a higher frequency than is able to be properly resolved by the recording (or sampling) device. This removal is done before (re)sampling at a lower resolution. When sampling is performed without removing this part of the signal, it causes undesirable artifacts such as black-and-white noise.
ATRAC Advanced Lossless is a "scalable" lossless audio codec that records a lossy ATRAC3 or ATRAC3plus stream, and supplements it with a stream of correction information stored within the file itself that allows the original signal to be reproduced, if desired. A player/decoder can extract and use just the ATRAC3 or ATRAC3plus data, or it can ...
All current iOS devices can play ALAC encoded files. The open source library libavcodec incorporates both a decoder and an encoder for the ALAC format, which means that media players based on that library (including VLC media player and MPlayer, as well as many media center applications for home theater computers, such as Plex, Kodi, and Boxee) are able to play ALAC files.
