A Typical Audio Architecture

Sound
• Sound are rapid vibrations that are transmitted
as variations in air pressure
• To use sound digitally, we must digitize
(converse to a stream of numbers) the analog
sound first

Time
Sound Digitization
Quantization
• To fully digitize the sound, we have to
sample in Time (Sampling) and in
Amplitude (Quantization)
Sampling
Bina Nusantara
Sampling
• Sampling
– Measuring at evenly spaced intervals
• Sampling Rate
– Known as sampling frequency, measured in Hertz (Hz)
• Nyquist Rate
– To have a correct sampling, sampling rate should equal to at
least twice the maximum frequency
– If sampling rate is lower than Nyquist rate, it will result in false
(alias) frequency
Bina Nusantara
Quantization
• Sampling in the amplitude dimension, represented in
fixed numbers of bits (8, 12, or 16 bits)
• Results in a loss of precision
which is called distortion (or
called quantization noise)
• Dithering (adding random
noise to quantized audio) can
be used to remove some of
the distortion

Synthesizing Sounds
• Frequency Modulation (FM)
– Producing new audio signal using a source waveform’s
frequency is changed by a modulating frequency
– Based on the same principles used for FM radio trasmission
– Used in low-end versions of Creative Sound Blaster PC sound
card
• Wave-Table
– More accurate way reproducing sound
– Using actual samples of real instruments
– More expensive than FM synthesis (partly because of larger data
storage)
Bina Nusantara
MIDI
• Musical Instrument Digital Interface
• A scripting language that codes events
(MIDI messages + timings)
• Enable computers, synthesizers,
keyboards, and other musical devices to
communicate with each others.
Bina Nusantara
A Possible MIDI Configuration
Bina Nusantara
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/sound/index.html
Synthesizers
• A sound generator that can vary pitch,
loudness, and tone color.
• Now included on PC sound cards. The
units that generate sound are called
tone/sound modules.
Bina Nusantara
Sequencers
• In the beginning, a special hardware
device for storing and editing a sequence
of musical events (MIDI data)
• Now, a software music editor on the
computer
Bina Nusantara
MIDI keyboards
• A keyboard that produces MIDI messages,
not sound
Bina Nusantara
MIDI Messages
• Sequences of MIDI instructions

Bina Nusantara
Channel Messages
• Voice Messages
– Sends information of which note to play
– Used to control sustain, vibrato, tremolo, and pitch
• Mode Messages
– Determines how an instrument processes MIDI voice messages
(to respond all messages, respond just to correct channel, don’t
respond at all, etc)
Bina Nusantara
System Messages
• For commands that are not channelspecific
• Common messages
– Relates to timing or positioning
• Real-time messages
– Relates to synchronization
• Exclusive messages
– Included so manufacturers can extend the MIDI standard
Bina Nusantara
MIDI standard
• General MIDI (GM1)
– Standard for assigning instruments to patch numbers so MIDI
music can sound more or less the same on every machine
– Ex : patch no.1 = piano
• General MIDI level 2 (GM2)
– Extended General Midi, with SMF (Standard MIDI File) format
defined.
– Includes extra character of information such as karaoke lyrics
– Increases the number of available sounds
– Increases the amount of control available for sound editing and
musical performance
• General MIDI Lite (GML)
– For mobile applications
Bina Nusantara
Standard MIDI Files
• a digital file that contains MIDI events
• was developed in 1990 for file exchange
between MIDI sequencers
• The information in a standard MIDI file is
referred to as a sequence
• contains one or more tracks which each
typically contains the notes of a single
instrument
Bina Nusantara
Java Sound API
• Supports both sampled audio and MIDI
data
• javax.sound.sampled
– This package specifies interfaces for capture, mixing, and
playback of digital (sampled) audio.
• javax.sound.midi
– This package provides interfaces for MIDI synthesis,
sequencing, and event transport.
