How are mono channel 16bit PCM arranged in LSB and MSB since it will no longer be [LEFT LSB][LEFT MSB][RIGHT LSB][RIGHT MSB]
EDIT
I don't understand the reason for the downvote but to better explain the question...
In a stereo channel (LEFT and RIGHT channel) 16bit PCM, 4 byte represent a sample stored as [LEFT CHANNEL LSB][LEFT CHANNEL MSB][RIGHT CHANNEL LSB][RIGHT CHANNEL MSB]
. But in a mono channel 16bit PCM there are no left or right channel, how are the LSB
and MSB
stored?
Solved my confusion after hours of thinking! The confusion started from the thought that since the PCM is 16bit, a sample will always be 4 bytes whether it is Mono
or Stereo
but I was wrong! A Stereo sample will be 4 bytes when a Mono sample will be 2 bytes so it is stored as [LSB][MSB]
for a sample!
