Homework Assignment #2 Sound Editing

Use the Microsoft Sound Recorder (or other tool, see below) to record 5 different sounds (noises, music, speech) and save them in 3 different sampling rates each (high, medium, low) and preferably more than one sound file format.

Do you notice degradation in different formats of sampling rates? What are the size requirements?

Create some effects such as echo, reverberation, repetition, fade, splicing two sounds together, etc. You can attain these by adding the same sound with delays, or with different frequencies.

You can find a free sound editor at http://www.goldwave.com. In your URL, describe what Goldwave lets you do and illustrate with 3 or more examples. Cool Edit from www.syntrillium.com/cooledit is another alternative sound editor.

Hand in a URL with the sounds and a description of your findings.
