Just like image resolution, sound resolution influences the quality of any audio recording. In that regard, we can define it as the number of values at which the sound can be encoded into numeric data. Expressed in bits, this sound resolution can range from 16 to 24 bits.
The higher this value is, the more accurate the sound reproduction will be. A resolution of 16 bits is considered to be acceptable. However, the resolution commonly used in high-resolution audio formats is generally 24 bits. The same applies to the sampling frequency, where a higher value will provide better sound quality. » learn more
