Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT
Assignment 1
Use GIMP (or a similar tool) to perform some manipulations on an image
Use Audacity to perform some manipulations on sound
Use a movie making tool to produce something like (and much better than!) ‘Lord of the Controllers 1 & 2’
Email me your group and its name so that I can set up a blog on the Learning Hub

Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT
What is sound?
Vibrations in a medium (air, water, … )
Disturbances in the medium propagate away from the source
Modelled mathematically as waves
Does not travel in a vacuum (``In space, no-one can hear you swear’’ )

Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT
Frequency
How many complete cycles within a unit of time
Higher frequency means higher pitch
![Page 13: Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT COSC1078 Introduction to Information Technology Lecture 5 Audio James Harland james.harland@rmit.edu.au.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551af6225503465e7d8b516c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT
Sound intensity
How can you measure loudness?
Can measure power/energy/voltage per unit area
Standard unit of comparison is bel or decibel
#decibels = 10 x log (I1/I2)
I1 = 20, I2 = 10: # decibels = 10 x log 2 = 3I1 = 100, I2 = 10: # decibels = 10 x log 10 = 10I1 = 400, I2 = 4: # decibels = 10 x log 100 = 20

Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT
Sound intensity
Strictly speaking decibel is a relative unit only
For humans, it only makes sense as “relative to the softest sound a human ear can hear”
0 db is baseline (not silence, or no sound …)
Often threshold of hearing at 1000Hz
Threshold of pain is 120 db (1012 x louder than 0 db !!)

Digitising Sound
Sampling: how often discrete readings are taken (from a continuous signal)Rate (Hz) Quality
11,025 AM Radio
22,050 FM Radio
44,100 CD
48,000 DAT
96,000-192,000 DVD
![Page 19: Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT COSC1078 Introduction to Information Technology Lecture 5 Audio James Harland james.harland@rmit.edu.au.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551af6225503465e7d8b516c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT
How often to sample?
Nyquist (or Nyquist-Shannon): Need to sample at least two points in each cycle to perfectly reconstruct the sound wave
Humans can hear approximately 20 to 20,000 Hz
Most sensitive in range 2,000 Hz to 5,000 Hz
11,025 Hz often works for speech (up to 5,000 Hz) but not music
![Page 20: Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT COSC1078 Introduction to Information Technology Lecture 5 Audio James Harland james.harland@rmit.edu.au.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551af6225503465e7d8b516c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT
Quantisation
Once we have a sample, how many different values do we allow for it?
More values means better quality, but larger file size
BITDEPTH
![Page 21: Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT COSC1078 Introduction to Information Technology Lecture 5 Audio James Harland james.harland@rmit.edu.au.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551af6225503465e7d8b516c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Lecture 5: Audio Intro to IT
Quantisation
Same issues as for images:
More sampling, more quantised levels better quality larger file size
Dynamic range: range of possible quantised values will `clip’ some sounds if too narrow will waste accuracy if too wide
