WAV vs. MP3 as Explained to a Fifth Grader



I made this presentation to explain the difference between WAV and MP3 files.  I tried to make it simple enough that a fifth grader could understand it. I hope you enjoy my presentation!

  2. The clearest illustrations of how BPM can affect a piece of music can be found in songs with which we are all familiar, but that take on a whole new character at a different tempo. The Bing Crosby festive classic White Christmas must be one of the best known songs of its genre, and has been covered numerous times. While the likes of Michael Bublé might stick to the “easy listening” tempo that we know so well, 1970s punk band Stiff Little Fingers bpm counter.gave the song a whole new edginess when they started playing it in their silly encores section at live shows. And all by increasing the BPM.

  3. MP3 quality, WAV files are almost always better, but this depends on a few other factors. For instance, WAV files can sometimes be compressed, ...The process can impact the quality of the audio, love language quiz but you likely won't hear the difference between MP3 and WAV quality. Your listeners probably won't notice, either, if you use MP3 or WAV files, especially if your podcast involves speaking (and less music).
