DAT is 48Khz as was used for sample or track recording - still used a bit... Now, it's pretty much digital...
Synths can generate up to 32bit 96Khz woah sounds... that can make a difference! Sound cards can do 96KHz or more... If you want to output sound, it's good to know. I got a high quality no trouble Terratec 96Khz/32bit that's great, it mixes digital audio and the midi has pratically no latency (wait in ms for midi throughput). for 100$/EUs that's cool... works everywhere, high quality... BUT, more programs or sounds you encounter use 44 KHz... if that didn't interest you at all, here's something else to consider I find that "high" sound quality actually doesn't really matter - background noise for one... And if you have the right speakers, it always sounds good (to a degree) - but viceversa? What sounds good in these speakers can be "different" in a laptop... I know because I produce music on the laptop too when I get creative ;D. Lots can't be heard in the laptop or smaller earphones, but surprise when you hear it in the good speakers - the bad surprises is doing viceversa... (to a degree, you could blast your ears shortly with it...) something to consider... Maybe avoid lengthy loading sound stacks as one big file (all in one custom prop)... Jacke, you said you had 100's... I know you guys want to protect your media BUT there's many many many games out there with music, effects, voices and being able to "customize" or humanize it (my prefered way of seeing modding) is something that many see as a "feature" - others can see it as a marketing way... If moft gets caught with it, you win the lotery ;) I know this is a different market, but you want to look mainstream, maybe acting like it would be on par with your user license agreement... Xample: GTR came out in German... grrr everyone loves German (usualy for their cars or car games ;) but not many understand it. Because the media (screens, dialogs, voices, etc) where in folders, and editable, they could be customized for french, spanish, etc and english for everyone - result: more clients... my 2 cents X > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Scott Rossi > Sent: Sunday, September 25, 2005 10:23 PM > To: How to use Revolution > Subject: Re: Sound formats > > Recently, Stephen Barncard wrote: > > > 44.1/16 bit < is > CD quality. > > For all intents and purposes you are right, although I > believe "technically" > 48K is considered actual CD quality. > > Regards, > > Scott Rossi > Creative Director > Tactile Media, Multimedia & Design > ----- > E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > W: http://www.tactilemedia.com > > _______________________________________________ > use-revolution mailing list > use-revolution@lists.runrev.com > Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage > your subscription preferences: > http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
