Clock designed by human beings. They made up the numbers on it.

Birds have no numbers, no clocks.

Is it 9am for the birds?

Maybe a coo coo clock for you and your avian types then? 🤗

 

"Rhythm and Pace" is a term that’s been in use for many, many decades and how you don’t see it having any meaning in "this context" is baffling to me, unless you’re under, say, 20 years of age, and have no appreciation for what’s gone on before you.

What you say could be the factors are some of the factors in determining "rhythm and pace". If it comes across more realistically, then it will have that "rhythm and pace."

That, and the contradictions in what you describe in your scenario with one system versus another shows that one system is better at it than another and is, therefore, responsible for the difference.

"Rhythm and pace" aren’t something you can plug into a system. It’s the result of the system, in toto.

I am not sure…
In term of TTs, ones that suffer from alteration of the speed when the sylus drag changes could be reflected in the output signal.

But objectively, one could actually measure that if one choose to do so.

That idea of R&P being possible, gets a bit harder to defend with digital equipment, as the clock in the DAC or iPad is pretty accurate… more accurate than a bird knowing it is 9:00 AM. 😋

Like this ?:

The issue with digital is a fundamental one - why convert analogue, the sound we can hear, to digital.  And then back again.  Everyone knows that such conversions have unavoidable costs, such processes always impose costs.  In digital, the main downside is the need to convert a real-time event into a digital clock time-frame, and then back again.

And copies can be sent to servers all over the world and not lose any bits, nor gain any noise.

How do you hijack a thread when you start with a premise that reads more like an acid trip than anything suitable for meaningful discussion? If two sounds are exactly the same, but you perceive them differently on different days, the sound didn’t change, you did. Not a hard concept to understand folks.

But alas… sobriety seems to have returned…

How do you turn off notifications about a discussion you started?

@theaudiomaniac It looked more mushroom, than acid, but I am not expert in either of them.

@asvjerry : it is not a list. It’s just one dude. With multiple banned usernames. He has not posted@theaudiomaniac most recent username in a a day or two, so likely got banned again, but he will be back, with yet another username. He always does

It is like the second coming, but he is on time like german railway, and he also repeats.

Or (he’ll) “Be back” like the terminator?

Oh boy.... it did not take you long to resurface here yet another time. I sounds like I now have to another name in my long list:

@thyname why was he banned?

• for who he is?
• for what he says?
• other?

Admittedly I don’t really understand the soliloquy that the OP @gladmo posted, but the @theaudiomaniac posts were intelligible. 

It is probably easier for many of us to revert to talking about other members than to understand, and comprehend the original post.

That may be why the thread is now about one member, rather than about philosophy?
