Review of Frequencies and Levels for Digital Audio Performance Measurements

Authors: Finger, Robert A.

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 34 · Issue 1/2 · pp. 36–48 · February 1986

Abstract

A wide variety of test frequencies and levels are evaluated at which digital audio linearity and steady-state distortion measurements can be performed. The number of unique codes needed to synthesize the test signals are calculated, and the resulting sensitivity of the sequences to pinpointing digital-to-analog converter (DAC) random errors are shown. Test sequences for consumer Compact Disc (CD) equipment operating with 44.1-kHz and professional systems using 49-kHz sample frequencies are examined.:
