[net.audio] CD player sampling rate

phil@osiris.UUCP (Philip Kos) (02/23/85)

Seems to me that a CD player's sampling rate should conform
pretty closely to whatever was used to "master" the disc.

In a similar vein, can anybody out there tell me the exact
(well, let's say "pretty much exact") specs on digital encoding?
I.e., standard sampling rate, precision, what kind of error
detection/(correction?), etc.  Please use personal mail; there
are already more new articles in this group than I have time
to read every day, and there's no need to give everybody else
my headaches.
