Reason 3.0 Lesson 1 - The Basics
The BasicsWhat is a recording?
The BasicsRecording is a process of capturing data
or translating information to a format stored on a storage medium.Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recording
Analog Vs. Digital What is Sound?Sound itself is just vibrating changes in air
pressure, which travel in continuous waves and cause similar vibrations in our eardrums.

Analog Vs. DigitalAnalog recording mechanically duplicates those
continuous vibrations, using the grooves of a record, or the flux of a magnetic tape passing through a tape recorder.
With digital recording, computers slice up those continuous sound waves into separate bits of information called samples. The faster the sampling, the more the recorded sound resembles the original.

Main Advantage of AnalogSince sound is analog by nature -Analog
can be said to be a more natural representation of sound than digital.
Advantages working with Digital MediaUniform Source Fidelity
Easier to make edits
Inexpensive media duplication
iPod and Computer based

Sample RateSample rate is the frequency at which
continuous analog waves (sound) are measured in order to make a discrete signal.
