In lossless mode the amount of compression obtained -depends on the nature of the waveform. Those composing of low -frequencies and low amplitudes give the best compression, which may -be 2:1 or better. Lossy compression operates by specifying a minimum -acceptable segmental signal to noise ratio or a maximum bit rate. Lossy -compression operates by zeroing the lower order bits of the waveform, -so retaining waveform shape. |
