Background News was out in November 2009 that Japanese company Sony Music Entertainment had developed a new CD that had compatibility with standard compact disc players, hence the CD in the name. It was claimed by Sony Music Entertainment that in the production process, new machines were used to make the master discs. They are completely compatible with existing disc players. With the mastering of the Blu-spec CD being the same as a Blu-ray, the more precise authoring relates to a better sound quality than normal CDs.

Vocoder
A vocoder (, a portmanteau of ''voice'' and ''encoder'') is a category of speech coding that analyzes and synthesizes the human voice signal for audio data compression, multiplexing, voice encryption or voice transformation. The vocoder was invented in 1938 by Homer Dudley at Bell Labs as a means of synthesizing human speech. This work was developed into the channel vocoder which was used as a voice codec for telecommunications for speech coding to conserve bandwidth in transmission. By encrypting the control signals, voice transmission can be secured against interception. Its primary use in this fashion is for secure radio communication. The advantage of this method of encryption is that none of the original signal is sent, only envelopes of the bandpass filters. The receiving unit needs to be set up in the same filter configuration to re-synthesize a version of the original signal spectrum. The vocoder has also been used extensively as an electronic musical instrument. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
