In the 90s, it became possible to edit sound recordings using a computer. In practice, there are often cases when it is necessary to either compress an existing sound file or convert the sound from a microphone into a digital format understandable by a computer for subsequent processing.
Necessary
- - microphone;
- - columns;
- - file encoder;
- - system player.
Instructions
Step 1
Open an encoder program that is convenient for you, for example, OggEnc or any other.
Step 2
Set the basic parameters: quality (setting the level of sound quality), downmix (mixing the second channel in the first), resample (setting the sampling rate), output (setting the file name for output). Also set additional parameters: base stream width, quality of the compressed file, name of the final file, accompanying characteristics.
Step 3
Enter the name of the sound file to be processed in the menu or on the encoder command line.
Step 4
Select a bitrate (depth of sound). Please note that for a home computer, the optimal bit rate will be 112 kbps, for professionals using high-quality professional equipment - 224 kbps.
Step 5
Watch the coding progress. In parallel, keep track of the amount of time remaining until the end of the process.
Step 6
Specify the folder where the program will save the recoded files. Remember that by default the compressed file is placed in the same folder where the original is stored.
Step 7
Check the quality of the encoding by listening to the processed file with the player. Use, for example, WinAmp or any built-in system player.
