(CBC) Corporate Engineering, to test audio quality in radio and TV productions and networks that employ full or bit-rate-reduced digital and analog audio links. During the course of its development, this measurement system evolved to the point where it is now capable of being used in testing equipment and systems for the purpose of evaluation, acceptance, and maintenance. It has also been found useful as a production tool for signal-processing control.", "abstract$meta": { "confidence": "high", "note": "Parsed from NLM article XML (_source/SMPTE/HIGHWIRE/Source Bak/smptej/10.5594_J15809.xml)", "source": "parsed", "updated": "2026-05-22T21:44:19.125Z", "version": "smpte-journal-article-nlm@v1" }, "authors": [ { "affiliation": "CBC Engineering.
