What's the point?

What is the point of having subjects and threads and then locking them all down?

anyhow.... just wanted to say ..odlumb

you are the man for your talk on Hz rates, I’ve always been a free thinker and never fell for it.

I record at 32bit (floating point)(which is prob also a scam ha ha)

44.1 kHz because that is what the destination Hz rate is.

I record at the higher bit rate for headroom to use FX and degenerate the quality.

people that mix at 48 should or even 96 should know the mathematical errors that occur when getting back to 44.1 CD standard can cause your sound to be actually derogated further than if you just left it to start with.

also ha ha odlumb

I have the same devious streak I pulled the same trick with a drummer that absolutely stated emphatically that he could tell "played live drums" from electronic samples!

so I recorded 3 tracks all with electronic drums made one quantized to sound very straight and perfect.

then I played the other with the keyboard intentionally making it out of time with 24bit samples added reverb stereo effect etc.

then I added another track somewhere in-between still electronic.

told the guy that one was live he picked the one I made sound live.

ha ha .

Oh wait

I know what the point is !

To keep the idea that we need 96 khz or higher or even to keep the myth and to play on individuals ignorance that "Pro tools" or other expensive outboard systems are still relevant and worth all that money.

by the way you can never have a REAL good sound unless you sign to a major Recording company.

Spending Money on Mics, Room Treatment, Speakers, Cables is better then to spend it on hardwares

But let me tell you something
Concerning your output quality Vs. Input

if your input is 24 and the output is Standard CD 16 Bit
most people mixdown directly they data from 24 to 16
So 24 - 16 = 8 Bit

Here You are loosing 8 Bit Each sample and that's not cool and if you want to keep some ( Sonic fidelity that you feel it's better ) You should use a Dither at the end of your effect processing .... No effect should be after the diether

It will maintain the dynamic feeling

Try it
