Description

As we start to wrap up this long series on frequency, we work our way towards the natural conclusion, export settings. While sample rate and bit depth can be and are recording settings and are decided at the beginning of the session, we also have options when bouncing down (see also: exporting) our sessions. The same goes for what bitrate mp3 to convert our audio to. Each of these settings affects frequency either super directly or mildly indirectly so we're going to focus a bit on HOW our voices are converted and encoded into a digital signal, as well as how it's converted back into an analog signal.
