    24 bit vs. 16 bit recording

    That was the exact argument audiophiles where having when JBL came out with their UHF beryllium teeter (AKA "the bat slayer"), but they sold 'em. DVD-A, SACD, and even PCM are all capable of producing 100K. There exists some unfiltered recorded material that has frequency extension far beyond...

    Tascam 1641, 1800 or 2000

    I bought a US2000 for my first interface not more than a few days ago. I bought it for $288 because it was an "open box buy". However, it was a Tascam dealer so it has a full factory warranty, Cubase, etc. I was going to get the 1800 for all the reasons outlined above, but this was a good deal...

    Poetry. I write poems...mostly bad rap songs. Once I start rhyming they just stop me early and forgive any debts. Sometimes they pay me extra to stop. It seems to work.

    I would friend me......no, wait. No, I wouldn't. I borrow lots of money and rarely pay it back with actual cash. At least I'm honest.

    24 bit vs. 16 bit recording

    Wow. Fascinating thread considering I'm completely green but coming from a long affair with high end home audio. It's interesting to hear arguments on the recording side of things regarding this topic. In home audio, the camps are divided. The high rez guys are hep cats in with the new, and...

    enjoy and plz give honest opinion

    Agree completely. It was pleasant to listen to, and that's a good thing..but that snare sound was a bit off (to me). Maybe others disagree and that's what's great about art- no definitive right or wrong. So being that this is subjective, I think that snare sound should be something that (as much...

    ..not that there's anything wrong with asking questions, but having been active on other forums I know firsthand how frustrating it can be to see the same questions getting asked over and over again...all of them easily answered by a little reading. It seems a bit..dare I say...lazy(?). What's...

    Thank you all- I just wanted to say how amazing this place is already- I am learning more here than I would have learned in any book. The sticky's at the beginning of each subsection have a wealth of information if you take the time to read through it. Guys like Harvey telling me all about...

    Stereo speakers vs. Recording speakers - What the difference?

    Got it. (Thank you!) I have learned a lot today. My brain hurts. Time for a break. Drone.

    Stereo speakers vs. Recording speakers - What the difference?

    That's why I'm here- to learn from statements like this^. I am absorbing this. What I would like to ask you is -> how do you know if the musicality stays in the mix when your monitors are focused on being nuetral? What I fear most (just getting into this sort of thing) is that somehow I will...

    Stereo speakers vs. Recording speakers - What the difference?

    ...and that may Very well be! Well said. I'll tell ya something I have "not" heard in a lot of recent offerings is musicality....that age old artifact gone by the wayside. There are so many musical sounding amps/speakers out there still more than capable of making your hair stand up in the back...

    Stereo speakers vs. Recording speakers - What the difference?

    I have heard some high end speakers that make a singer's mouth sound like it's 20 feet wide. Everyone in the room remarked on how detailed it was...and how deep the soundstage was....to which I replied- "what soundstage? All I could hear was giant lips". Some people don't know the definition...

    Stereo speakers vs. Recording speakers - What the difference?

    I made that statement (and perhaps it was not the best use of words!) because I rail against all the emphasis on that trend in high end home audio. A good pair of speakers will do it's best to accurately REproduce what happened when the mics were on or when the musicians took the stage....NOT...
