Digital music technology


Not only guidance technology developed by the age, but also was involved developing music demanded by the rapidly advancing technology. And collaboration between technology and music has given birth to something new in the world of music is digital music.

There was a famous musician who defines the term "digital music" is music that worked or processed by the computer. Definitions of these musicians have been very solid and clear, that it is true that in the process of digital music using a computer. Computer used to produce this digital music certainly has special software, the software that works sublimate music tones. Name of the software is MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface). With this software, you can combine the sounds of musical instruments or chant that is played at a different time and different tools. So, if you already play an instrument and sing at one time, you can make digital music. Do not think that makes digital music is very difficult, you do not need to have complete musical equipment and intact, you just need a computer hardware and software that supports the manufacture of your digital music. So in fact anyone can follow, or even create your own digital music technology to develop this.

New era in digital music

Era always develop, and also about technology. You can see now, everything have changed. From people style, like hair, dresses, home design and certainly the technology, like mobile phone which can see another people in long place, or camera which can take picture with long distance without need you approach to the objects directly, you only need the zoom lens. Even about music, for a long time ago people listen to the music through gramophone, they used black plate. At that era this tool is analogue music. This tool used pen which can tremble and bring out side sounds. This sound called analogue music.

For the second era, the technologies bring out side compact audio cassette which plays in tape or Walkman. This type is analogue music too. And for the next generation technology bring out side new era in digital music. Digital music work based on computer technology. With digital form, we can save much data.  The beginning sound is analogue, but the sound will changed with analogue to digital converter (ADC) to be digital music. Digital form have many type, there are MP3 form, WAV form, MIDI form, or AAC. The most popular form is MP3 and AAC or Advanced Audio Coding is form of digital music which use on IPod.
