Reconstructing the original signal

The sound wave is converted into data through a series of snapshot measurements, or samples. A sample is taken at a particular time in the audio wave, recording amplitude. This information is then converted into digestible, binary data.

The system takes these measurements at a speed called the audio sample rate, measured in kilohertz. The audio sample rate determines the range of frequencies captured in digital audio.
