    The sounds produced from these systems can be combined to any degree with traditional instruments, such as guitar and drums, modern synthesizers and drum machines, or vocals and sound effects. [2] Bitpop uses a mixture of old and new equipment often resulting a sound which is unlike chiptune although containing 8-bit sourced sounds. For example ...

    The Game Boy uses two pulse channels (switchable between 12.5%, 25%, 50% and 75% wave duty cycle), a channel for a 4-bit waveform generator, and a pseudo-random-noise generator. The Commodore 64 however used the MOS Technology SID chip which offered 3 channels, each switchable between pulse, saw-tooth, triangle, and noise.

    The 8-track tape (formally Stereo 8; commonly called eight-track cartridge, eight-track tape, and eight-track) is a magnetic-tape sound recording technology that was popular [2] from the mid-1960s until the late 1980s, when the compact cassette, which pre-dated the 8-track system, surpassed it in popularity for pre-recorded music.

    Using this technique, the audio data is stored as a sequence of fixed amplitude (i.e. 1-bit) values at a sample rate of 2.884 MHz, which is 64 times the 44.1 kHz sample rate used by CD. At any point in time, the amplitude of the original analog signal is represented by the density of 1's or 0's in the data stream.

    All DVD-Audio players are equipped with MLP decoding, while its use on the discs themselves is at their producers' discretion. To store 5.1 tracks in 88.2 kHz / 20-bit, 88.2 kHz / 24-bit, 96 kHz / 20-bit or 96 kHz / 24-bit on a DVD disc, the use of MLP compression is mandatory. [clarification needed] MP3
