Abstract
An apparatus for data compressing an analog audio signal includes an input terminal for receiving the audio signal and a 1-bit A/D converter for A/D converting the audio signal to a digital bitstream signal. The apparatus has a lossless coder for lossless data compression of the bitstream signal to a data compressed bitstream signal, and has an output terminal for supplying the data compressed bitstream signal. A recording apparatus and a transmitter apparatus use the data compression apparatus. An apparatus for expanding the data compressed bitstream signal to a replica of the analog audio signal is used by a reproducing apparatus and a receiver apparatus.
