- Description
- Digital Speech Standard (DSS) is a proprietary compressed digital audio file format defined by the International Voice Association, a co-operative venture by Olympus, Philips and Grundig. DSS was originally developed in 1994 by Grundig with the University of Nuremberg. In 1997, the digital speech standard was released, which was based on the previous codec. It is commonly used on digital dictation recorders. Modern phycoacoustical codecs that perform nearly as well at only slightly higher bitrates have led to this speech coding standard being less used in modern voice recording equipment.
- The 8SVX file format, short for "8-Bit Sampled Voice," is an audio file type used primarily on the Amiga computer system. Developed as part of the Electronic Arts Interchange File Format (IFF), which was a versatile container format designed to hold various types of multimedia, 8SVX files specifically store 8-bit mono sound samples. These files are characterized by their ability to hold digitized sound data, such as musical compositions or sound effects.
