MP3: The ideal Sample Rate for each application
In the case of MP3 and other Audio formats, it is important to use from capture to playback the same scan rate. Although you can use the Sample Rate convert at any time, but the Sample-Rate Converter to generate almost always artifacts. The following Sample rates are for the various applications:
- To music CDs to MP3 to convert, for example, according to our instructions via Media Player, it is best to use the original Sample Rate of 44100 Hz.
- The sound of DVDs and Blu-ray is usually stored with 48000 Samples per second and played back. Here, you should stay with the samples rate of 48 kHz. If you want to convert sound with 96 kHz in MP3, sound 48 kHz is better than 44.1 kHz.
- For pure voice recording via sound recorder or by means of other Software is a Sample-Rate of 8 to 9 kHz is sufficient, since small microphones above 4 to 5 kHz hardly sound energy included.
- The sound quality of radio plays and audio books is not so important, because you want to take, for example, as many of the stories on an MP3 Player, use a sample rate of 22050 Hz. At half the sample rate, you can halve the bit rate of the MP3 without loss of quality.
- If your old tapes dubbing ranged from 32 kHz as a sampling rate, because Tapes draw anyway hardly any frequencies above 16 kHz.
MP3 - the optimal Sample Rate you can find
In addition, practical tips will show you how to use the optimal Sample Rate for special applications self-calculate. We will show you the settings you can use a MP3 to optimally encode and why is the sound in AAC format usually sounds better than MP3.
