When you play back any sound that is recorded using contemporary digital field recorders, a reverse process takes place, and the sound that is recorded is stored as a digital 'representation.' This 'representation' of the actual targeted sound is created through sampling and encoding and converted back to an analog signal which is amplified and on turn causes the movement of the speaker diaphragm, creating vibration in the air. The sound waves that result are never exactly like the original- there's always something that changes in the process. Bye.
