Description | The AUD file format is an audio file format used by the Westwood Studios game development company. It is primarily used for storing sound effects and music in games, particularly in the Command & Conquer series. The AUD format uses a simple uncompressed format, where each sample is stored as a 16-bit signed integer. This results in a relatively large file size, but provides high-quality audio that can be quickly loaded into the game. To create an AUD file, audio data is first recorded and then converted into the appropriate format using an audio editing software program. The resulting audio file can then be imported into the game engine and used as sound effects or music. One advantage of using the AUD format is that it is easy to work with and provides high-quality audio. Additionally, because it is a proprietary format used by Westwood Studios, it is optimized for use in their game engine and can be quickly loaded and played. However, because the AUD format is proprietary, it may not be compatible with other software programs or platforms. Additionally, because it is an uncompressed format, it can result in large file sizes, which may be a concern for games with limited storage capacity. In summary, the AUD file format is an audio file format used by the Westwood Studios game development company for storing sound effects and music in games. It uses a simple uncompressed format that provides high-quality audio and is optimized for use in their game engine. However, its proprietary nature may limit its compatibility with other software programs and platforms, and its large file size may be a concern for games with limited storage capacity. |

Description | MP3 is the most popular audio file type based on MPEG-1 Layer III compression. Its lossy algorithm was developed in 1991. MP3 codes the sound almost with the same quality, as CD (16-bit stereo), providing compression in size 1 to 10 from the original WAF or AIFF tracks. The quality of MP3 seriously depends on the bitrate. It can be 128 - 256 kbps. Higher bitrates are also supported, but they seriously increase the file size. It is supported by all modern hard- and software players. |
