  2. Shorten (codec) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shorten_(codec)

    Shorten (SHN) is a file format used for compressing audio data. It is a form of data compression of files and is used to losslessly compress CD-quality audio files (44.1 kHz 16-bit stereo PCM). Shorten is no longer developed and other lossless audio codecs such as FLAC, Monkey's Audio (APE), TTA, and WavPack (WV) have become more

  3. Audio coding format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_coding_format

    A lossless audio coding format reduces the total data needed to represent a sound but can be de-coded to its original, uncompressed form. A lossy audio coding format additionally reduces the bit resolution of the sound on top of compression, which results in far less data at the cost of irretrievably lost information.

  4. Comparison of audio coding formats - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_audio_coding...

    The 'Music' category is merely a guideline on commercialized uses of a particular format, not a technical assessment of its capabilities. For example, MP3 and AAC dominate the personal audio market in terms of market share, though many other formats are comparably well suited to fill this role from a purely technical standpoint.

  5. WavPack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WavPack

    WavPack compression can compress (and losslessly restore) 8, 16, 24, and 32-bit fixed-point, and 32-bit floating-point PCM audio files in the .WAV file format. It can also handle DSD input in DSDIFF or DSF format. [2] It also supports surround sound streams and high sampling rates. Like other lossless compression schemes, the data reduction ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

    In lossy audio compression, methods of psychoacoustics are used to remove non-audible (or less audible) components of the audio signal. Compression of human speech is often performed with even more specialized techniques; speech coding is distinguished as a separate discipline from general-purpose audio compression. Speech coding is used in ...

  7. Audio codec - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_codec

    In hardware, audio codec refers to a single device that encodes analog audio as digital signals and decodes digital back into analog. In other words, it contains both an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and digital-to-analog converter (DAC) running off the same clock signal. This is used in sound cards that support both audio in and out, for ...

  8. MPEG-1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-1

    MPEG-1 is a standard for lossy compression of video and audio.It is designed to compress VHS-quality raw digital video and CD audio down to about 1.5 Mbit/s (26:1 and 6:1 compression ratios respectively) [2] without excessive quality loss, making video CDs, digital cable/satellite TV and digital audio broadcasting (DAB) practical.

  9. ATRAC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATRAC

    Adaptive Transform Acoustic Coding (ATRAC) is a family of proprietary audio compression algorithms developed by Sony. MiniDisc was the first commercial product to incorporate ATRAC, in 1992. ATRAC allowed a relatively small disc like MiniDisc to have the same running time as CD while storing audio information with minimal perceptible loss in ...
