Description | 🔵 AMR is a compressed file format that functions to enhance speech coding, and it consists of multiple sampling rates narrowband devices used in encoding or decoding. Recording of AMR files can be done using mobile phones. For video and audio files to play simultaneously or accomplish random access memory, one can utilize the 3GPP format. 160 20- millisecond samples embedded in each frame are coded using AMR using ACELP, DTX, VAD, and CNG. Recorded AMR files can be converted into other files allowing their use and for them to be distributed. |
Technical details | 🔵 AMR can encode signals ranging from 4.75 to 12.2 kbit/s with quality that begins at 7.4 kbit/s.3GPP took up file format in 1999. It is a method that is utilized by GSM and UMTS. It uses link adaptation to select one of the eight different bit rates. AMR optimizes link adaptation with the best codec devices for it to be used by radio channels and capacity requirements. This only works if the connection is good enough to prevent the loss of audio quality. |

Description | 🔵 AIFF is intended for viewing and processing of audio data, as well as for its storage in digital devices. Apple designers developed it on the base of IFF in late 1980s. Thanks to lossless coding, it is very similar to WAV. In Windows OS, it is mostly used with .aiff extension. AIFF files have gained significant attention from Mac PC users. They are popular as well among professional musicians who are most particular about sound quality. The fact that the format is widely supported by various multimedia software, and universal players, may also be considered a notable benefit. To open AIFF files in Windows OS, installing Apple iTunes, Windows Media Player, Roxio Creator, and some other programs are required. |
Technical details | 🔵 When being coded, the stream is divided into sound segments. A minute of standard stereo sound corresponds with 10 Mb of memory approximately. Standard non-compressed files use .aif or .aiff. In such files, audio data are represented in the form of pulse code modulation. If some data are lost through codecs, .aifc is used. A standard 16 bit AIFF file has two channels for stereo sound and a 44 100 Hz sampling frequency. Being non-compressed, it differs in size significantly from MP3 and other similar formats. Sometimes it may contain samples and cycle information. |
