maraming factors ang nakakaepekto sa sound quality if we try to analyze the factors that contributes to audio output or sound coming from our pc
1.) Actual speakers used - pinakamalaki sa lahat
2.) Source - this includes quality of the sound, resolution (ex. 16,24-Bit, sampling rate), actual audio file itself
3.) driver features ng hardware - some soundcards have an option that can improve the output sound
4.) Software used for playback - may enhancement na kayang gawin ang mga player (ex. iTunes)
for a special soundcard for general use, sa number three lalabas yun. so mayroon talagang improvement. pero limitado pa rin yan ng 1 and 2. for pc recording, a dedicated hardware like a USB soundcard is very important at kailangan talaga since it provides the supported protocol (ex. ASIO) na ginagamit sa low-latency at high-resolution digital audio file sampling.
