One of these would not capture the complete sound wave.
- Tape
- Digital recording
- MIC
- Mixtape
Correct Answer

A. Digital recording

Explanation

Digital recording would not capture the complete sound wave because it converts analog sound waves into digital data by sampling and quantizing the audio signal. This process involves capturing discrete points of the sound wave at regular intervals, which can result in some loss of information and accuracy. In contrast, tape and MIC (microphone) capture the complete sound wave in its analog form, while a mixtape is a compilation of recorded songs on a physical medium like a cassette tape.
