Digital vs. Analog technology W.A.C
As technology continues to further evolve, we become able to do things that we weren’t able to before and enhance the experience of things like entertainment. Unlike analog graphing, digital graph will not only get better in the future, it is already better and easier to use than analog is. Digital technology is already easier to use than that of analog, not only is it less expensive, it’s also more widely available, and anyone can do it. Editing can fix all of the issues that people may have with digital technology and make the music sound better than it did before. Lastly, as time moves on the technology will continue to improve and get better, surpassing analog technology by even more than it does now. By far, digital technology is much easier to come across today than analog technology, not only that digital is much easier to use than analog is.
While analog technology has been around for ages, since man has started to make music, in the short time that it has existed digital technology has already become much more available and easy to use than analog technology is. Rather than having a confusing instruction manual like analog technology does, digital technology has easy to navigate, use, and understand help pages that anyone can use if their confused. So learning how to use digital technology won't be an issue if the company uses digital. Not only that, but the ability to find a piece of analog technology today is much harder than the ability to find a piece of digital technology, and much less expensive as well so almost anyone can find and buy all the necessary equipment, so money wont be as much of an issue as it was before. Through the power of editing we can put in all of the subtleties that may have been missed in the recording and sampling of music being played, holding it to a higher sound quality and precision that analog technology has.
With advanced editing tools that are widely available and easy to use, digital sound can have all of the subtle parts of the music that may have been missed during sampling, meaning that digital technology can have the same level of sound quality as digital has. Using separate recordings, and control over the level of volume a noise has, editors can put in all of the subtle pieces of music that may be present throughout the piece, is it’s skipped over during sampling, meaning that digital can have the same level of music integrity that analog has. Not only that but editing is a much faster and less scary process than before, because there is an undo button if something is accidentally deleted, it doesn’t have to be recorded again, which would cost the company time and money. Meaning that our company would be saving money if we switched to digital. Digital technology has a lot of great points about it, does analog technology have any kind of advantage over digital technology in this debate?
While digital has a large amount of upper hands on analog, it gets beat out in one aspect of sound, and that is all of the smaller harder to notice sounds in music, which are subtle noises that make the song all that much more enjoyable than if they weren’t there. When people use digital technology, it doesn’t convert the entire song onto the computer, only parts at a sampling rate, which can leave out parts of the song that would make it much more enjoyable than it was before. While songs made using analog technology always picks up the entire song, so when digital technology is used all of the subtle yet really enjoyable parts of the song are left out, which can lose a lot of money for the company producing the technology and music for people to enjoy. Even though lots of enjoyable parts of the song are left in the initial recording, they can still be recorded and added in later via editing, which means people can enjoy all of the parts of the song as if they were listening to it on a vinyl record.
As time passes on digital technology will continue to keep improving and it will keep getting better and better, meaning that not only will it become even more accessible to people, it will also have a lot more uses than it would today. Every day, people around the world are working to make more and better technology, meaning that technology has almost a 100% chance of being improved in one way shape or form, this includes music technology meaning that digital technology will continue to surpass analog technology every day. The technology used for making music can be improved in lots of different ways, like the sampling rate may continue to increase meaning that people will eventually be able to hear all of the subtleties in the music from the initial recording, which reduces the amount of work that needs to be done. There are lots of ways that digital technology is superior to analog technology, and there are lots of areas that digital technology will be better than analog technology in the future.
Not only is digital technology better than analog technology right now, it will also continue to be better than analog technology in the future. Meaning that it will continue to improve and get better for anyone to use. Digital technology is much easier to use than analog technology with all of the guides and help pages, it’s also much more available these days as compared to analog technology. Almost all of the problems that digital technology and recording has can be fixed by recording more audio and editing the audio that was already there before. As time moves on digital technology will continue to improve and get even better than before, continuing to surpass analog technology. As you can see digital technology is far superior than analog technology, and while both have their good sides, digital beats out analog in almost every way shape or form, meaning that digital is the overall better option than analog.
