Solution :

Digital recording may be defined as the preservation of an audio or some visual signals like the series of a binary numbers which can be stored on a magnetic tape or on an optical disc or some other digital storage media.

Some of the best practices for doing digital recording are :

1. We should always take permission from those who are being recorded. It is not right to shoot others without their permission. It is against the right to privacy.

2. We should record audio at about 44.1 kHz/16 bit in an uncompressed wave format.

3. A High quality MP3 (192 kbps or higher) is often accepted due to the limitations of a recorder or for a storage space.

The MP3 recordings are considered as the best option for certain recorders  and when the storage space is severely limited. It produces a good quality recording.
