Description | 🔵 The .mp format refers to an audio coding format for digital audio that employs a form of lossy data compression. It's a widely used audio format for consumer audio streaming and storage and has become the standard codec for transferring and playing back music on most digital audio players. MP files reduce file size without significantly impacting perceived sound quality by eliminating sounds beyond most people's hearing range. |
Technical details | 🔵 The `.mp3` format, MPEG-1 Audio Layer III, is a commonly utilized digital audio format. Key technical details include: - Lossy Compression: Reduces file size by removing inaudible sounds. - Compression Ratio: Typically about 10:1, balancing quality and size. - Bitrate: Encodes at variable rates, affecting quality and size. - Sampling Rates: Supports a variety of rates, including CD quality. - Channel Modes: Provides options for mono, stereo, joint stereo, and dual channel. - Metadata: Contains information such as title, artist, and genre (ID3 tags). - Streaming: Ideally suited for internet audio streaming. - Universal Playback: Compatible with most devices and software. - Variable Bitrate (VBR): Dynamically adjusts bitrate for efficiency. - Frequency Range: Covers 20 Hz to 20 kHz (the range of human hearing). - File Size: Significantly smaller than uncompressed audio. - Psychoacoustic Model: Removes less audible frequencies. - Developed by the Fraunhofer Society in the 1990s, the MP3 format revolutionized the music industry with its efficient compression and broad compatibility, simplifying digital audio storage and sharing. |

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. |
