"DSD samples music at 64 times the rate of Compact Disc (64 x 44,100 Hz). This yields a sampling rate of 2,822,400 Hz. At first, recording all those bits may seem like a daunting task. But remember, the CD uses 16 bits for each sample, so the bit rate per channel is 16 x 44,100 Hz or 705,600 bits per second. DSD uses one bit per sample, so the bit rate per channel is 2,822,400 bits per second. T h a t ’s “only” four times the data of Compact Disc. While this data rate is high, it’s well within the capabilities of many current recording systems, both tape and hard disk."Tuesday, October 27, 2009
