Encoding digital audio data to take up less storage space and transmission bandwidth. Audio compression typically uses lossy methods, which eliminate bits that are not restored at the other end. ADPCM ...

Lossless data compression of digital audio signals is useful when it is necessary to minimize the storage space or transmission bandwidth of audio data while still maintaining archival quality.

[In our Three-Minute Tech series, we tell you everything you really need to know about a technology in three minutes or less.] The day may come when increased storage capacities and unfettered ...

One of the problems I have when producing screen cams is that my voice fades at the end of the day, making the tutorials I create less clear. Fortunately, this is a problem I can easily fix in Adobe ...

Last week, Meta announced an AI-powered audio compression method called "EnCodec" that can reportedly compress audio 10 times smaller than the MP3 format at 64kbps with no loss in quality. Meta says ...

TL;DR: Encodec is a next-generation audio codec based on a complex neural network design, a system that can squeeze a lot of audio juice into minimal storage space. The codec would work for Metaverse ...

A compression technique that decompresses data back to its original form without any loss. The decompressed file and the original are identical. All compression methods used to compress text, ...

Some YouTube users are mounting a growing revolt against the site's new audio scheme, which has degraded the sound quality of clips on the site by running them through an audio processor that wreaks ...

If you didn't realise it by now, Christmas is not just about eating, drinking and Santa. It's also about free music software giveaways! And Baby Audio has just announced its regular seasonal freebie, ...

As mentioned previously, the characteristics of typical audio signals vary from time to time and therefore we must expect the required bit rate for lossless compression to vary as well. Since the bit ...
