ean a eee CCE E Nae Theencoding method above does not compress the file anda typical storage format is WAV (Waveform Audio File Format), whichis used on PCs. However, musicfiles are often compressed to allaw for eficientstreaming across theintemetand te enable ots of rusic fies to bestored Con a single storage medium. Compression reduces the Fle site. There aretwo types of compress lessy compression antl lossless compression, Lossless compression reduces thefile size without losing any qvalliy, Dusit car only reduce the fle size by about 50%. Lossy compression reduces tha fle size by reducing the bit rate, which means chat some of the quality is lost Most human ears won't beable fo detect the loss In quality, but an experienced musician would netice. When compressing an aucho fle itis possible Lo choose the bt rate. Abit rate of 128kbps is equivalent to whal would be heard on the radio. ACD file originally hasa bit rots of 14 Mbp: (£411 200 9p3), This fs reduced Lo L26KbGIs (178 000 kops). The onginal filesize was3/MB, To calculate the change in tile size, divide by the original bit rate and multialy bythe new bitrate. Compressed ile size = 37 +1411 200 128000 25 Mb. Ir this example, the file size has been recluced to approximately 1096 of the original sie. Video When video is encoded it needsto stare images as wel as sound.
