Files are larger than when using a compressed format, but the quality is higher. AIFF compressed is the compressed variation. Archive Bit Archive bits are used to identify files that have been edited. A file is only resaved during the next backup process if it was edited (and an archive bit is thus reset).
Glossary Cache Cache is a faster buffer that is used in various areas of a computer to access larger data volumes faster. Cache ensures a continuous flow of data. CD-R Compact Disc-Recordable is a technology for write-once media. The Orange Book standard defines the storage of audio data and other computer-readable data. Disc-At-Once Disc-At-Once refers to a method in which the laser in your disc burner burns the disc in one pass without turning off and on between each track.
Glossary MP3 The MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 audio format is used to reduce the size of audio files to a fraction of their original size (factor 1:10) with little loss of quality. You can estimate about 1 MB per minute as opposed to 10 MB for the original files. This value and the quality can vary depending on the complexity of the audio signal. The bit rate used can be used as a measure of quality. The higher the bit rate, the better the quality, but also the more memory required.
