Bit Depth
Bit depth refers to the number of bits used to represent each audio sample, impacting sound quality.
Bit depth in digital audio refers to the number of bits used to represent each audio sample. Higher bit depth allows for more detailed and accurate sound reproduction, resulting in better audio quality. Common bit depths for podcast recording include 16-bit and 24-bit, with 24-bit providing higher fidelity.
Choosing an appropriate bit depth is important for balancing audio quality and file size. While higher bit depth offers superior sound, it also increases the file size, which can be a consideration for storage and distribution. Ensuring the correct bit depth helps maintain the clarity and richness of the recorded audio.
