Sound Output D/A Conversion Frequencies (Bit Counts)


The final D/A conversion frequency (Bit Count) of the AGB Sound Output can be selected from the following four types as necessary. 
Think of the D/A conversion bit count as being the resolution in the volume direction and the D/A conversion frequency as being the resolution in the time direction. 

Bit Count D/A Frequency CGB Compatible Sound Quality Direct Sound Quality
9 32768 Hz Distorted (Type:P) or Scale Error Large (Type:Q) Clear
8 65536 Hz Somewhat Distorted (Type:P) or Scale Error Small(Type:Q) Clear
7 131072 Hz Excellent Somewhat Rough
6 262144 Hz Excellent Rough

Whether or not "Distorted" or "Scale Error" is selected in the "CGB Compatible Sound Quality" column above is dependent upon whether a P or Q was selected in the Tone Color Setup of themks4agb.ini File. Refer to P or Q (CGB Compatible Sound) Setup  in "Writing in the .ini File" concerning the selection of  P or Q. 

Concerning Direct Sounds, the larger the bit count, the broader the dynamic range, but at the same time, the high range frequency characteristics get worse. It is impossible to say exactly which bit count will be best. 

There will be not be any effect on the processing time no matter which is chosen.
