- Sampling Rate
- Also called a "sample rate". Typically expressed in samples per second, or hertz (Hz). The rate at which samples of an analog signal are taken and converted into digital form. A computer sound card will sample a received analog signal, (input for example through a microphone), and digitize it. A higher sampling rate provides a better quality reproduction than a lower sampling rate. The higher the sampling rate, the higher the frequency range of the recording.
