Frequency :Number of waves to pass a point in one second.
Amplitude :Distance from rest to crest or rest to trough.
Wavelength :Distance from crest to crest.
Crest :Point that exhibits maximum amount of upward displacement from the rest position.
Trough :Point that exhibits maximum amount of downward displacement from the rest position.
Pitch : The quality of the sound determined by the rate of vibration.
Sampling :process used to convert analog sound waves into digital data to be used by computers.
Sample rate :the number of samples taken per second, often measured in Kilohertz (kHz).
Bit rate :the number of computer bits process per unit of time.
Sample size :the number of bits used to save one sample.
Channel:single audio stream consisting of a sequence of samples.
Mono :one channel; audio is a single channel, where sound comes from a single direction.
Stereo :two channels; creates the impression of sound being heard from various directions, as in human hearing.
Audio file size :determined by the sample rate, sample size and number of channels used.
MP3 :MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3
WAV :Waveform file
OGG :Ogg Vorbis
AIFF:Audio Interchange File Format
Analog video :video uses a continuous electrical signal to capture footage on a magnetic tape.
