Just wondering if I have the flow correct here:
A sound (an instrument, someone singing, etc) is recorded. The intensity of vibrations is continuously recorded as a variable voltage. Then, depending on the sampling rate and resolution, each variable voltage is converted an integer value, which is then stored as binary.
The binary value is then converted through a specific audio format (mp3, etc) through a Codec.
Now, the diaphram in a speaker moves back and forth through oscillations in positive/negative voltages & currents. How exactly is the binary converted into these postive/negative voltages & currents?
Does a "1" represent postive, "0" , negative? For the diaphragm to move, wouldn't it always have to alternate between 1 and 0?
What if it's like 110111010? I guess what I'm asking is, how exactly does the binary translate into postive/negative voltages/currents, meaning, how exactly does it affect the diaphragm of a speaker?
