High-resolution audio (high-definition audio or HD audio) is a term for audio files with greater than 44.1 kHz sample rate or higher than 16-bit audio bit depth. It commonly refers to 96 or 192 kHz sample rates. However, 44.1 kHz/24-bit, 48 kHz/24-bit and 88.2 kHz/24-bit recordings also exist that are labeled HD audio.
Sounds to Sample is a UK-based website that sells copyright free audio samples and loops for use in music production. It was launched in 2007 (17 years ago) ( 2007 ) by Sharooz Raoofi and David Felton, initially as a digital download portal for the Sample Magic libraries, and expanded to include developers such as Sony , Zero G and Best Service ...
SoundFont 2.04 was introduced in 2005 with the Sound Blaster X-Fi. The 2.04 format added support for 24-bit samples. The 2.04 format is bidirectionally compatible with the 2.01 format, so synthesizers that are only capable of rendering 2.0 or 2.01 format would automatically render instruments using 24-bit samples at 16-bit precision.
In September 2007, the Audio Engineering Society published the results of a year-long trial, in which a range of subjects—including professional recording engineers—were asked to discern the difference between high-resolution audio sources (including SACD and DVD-Audio) and a compact disc audio (44.1 kHz/16 bit) conversion of the same ...
WavPack compression can compress (and losslessly restore) 8, 16, 24, and 32-bit fixed-point, and 32-bit floating-point PCM audio files in the .WAV file format. It can also handle DSD input in DSDIFF or DSF format. [2] It also supports surround sound streams and high sampling rates. Like other lossless compression schemes, the data reduction ...
On November 9, 2022, MQA announced a new product called MQair, which is a hi-res wireless audio codec. Coinciding with the announcement, the Japan Audio Society (JAS) also released a statement certifying MQair with the "Hi-Res AUDIO WIRELESS" logo. MQair is the fourth codec to receive this, alongside LC3plus, LHDC and LDAC. MQAir is also known by the technical name SCL6 which stands for the ...

To synchronize digital audio with television and film, there were five sampling rates available, that had leap frames but were not too high, which were as follows: 45, 48, 50, 52.5, and 54 kHz. [ 1 ] [ 3 ] European television chose 48 kHz due to them already broadcasting in 32 kHz, which corresponded to a 3:2 ratio, which made conversion easy ...
