Two questions to make you mad. @tvrgeek outstanding post. I feel like I'm always putting down audiophiles but I'm really trying to stick up for them because I have a long background in all kinds of sound reproduction. It is clear to me that audiophiles really have a hugely i... | |
Two questions to make you mad. @bigtwin Your not ignorant at all, your note reminds me of the old saying, "your most important sexual organ is your brain". @wolf_garcia I have miked and gone direct, put guitar amps in caskets, put them on stage behind the vocals, put them on ... | |
Two questions to make you mad. @mahgister Thanks for your note, I had a feeling you'd have some interesting thoughts. I think A I will change everything in sound one of the interesting things that will change soon will be the meaningless ideas that we pay so much for today tha... | |
Two questions to make you mad. Of course the reason I mentioned the ASML machine that sells for 300M$ that makes 3nm chips is because it is the most accurate machine mankind has ever made (not including the LHC), The LHC uses super conductive cables so they are in a different c... | |
Two questions to make you mad. @mijostyn love your views, if your ever in Idaho look me up. | |
Two questions to make you mad. @mahgister I’d love to hear your view on where AI (Artificial Intelligence) will lead recording and playback in music and movies. | |
Two questions to make you mad. I’ve had a fun and way to long argument with a friend of mine that works in a vintage guitar store in LA, he knows practically every guitar player and their set up tout there. I would always tell him why do you sell all these beautiful guitars and... | |
Real or Surreal. Do you throw accuracy out the window for "better" sound? @mijostyn Do I think the equipment that recording engineers use affects the recordings? That is a surprising subject and I think the answer is not really, I've listened to what great actors sound like with my system so I instantly know how they ... | |
Speakers 10 years old or older that can compete with todays best, The Altec Lancing Voice of the theater speakers are used in the reverb chambers under Capitol Records in LA. | |
Real or Surreal. Do you throw accuracy out the window for "better" sound? @mapman I agree with your points in many ways but I think music isn't subjective. The recorded music that comes through your system should be the same signal that comes out of everyone's system and has been molded into a very particular product. ... | |
Real or Surreal. Do you throw accuracy out the window for "better" sound? I've ran sound for hundreds of thousands of people live, recorded albums, and won Oscars for sound and in every project or concert there were always a lot of concessions and compromises to what I would have liked to do. That golden no compromis... | |
If you were serious about sound you would... @czarivey Your right I shouldn't have made such a blanket statement, I'm a saxophone player for 50 years I love all types of Jazz, my point is how very well recorded modern jazz is. Jazz recordings today along with modern classical are probably th... | |
If you were serious about sound you would... @inna There is no way to add sonic information to the recording, it's not a matter of easier or harder to record or playback. With that in mind you can't get any value out of equipment that is significantly better than what was used originally. Fo... | |
If you were serious about sound you would... @mbmi No, I don't want to belabor this but I've set up many many digital recording setups (scars to prove it) and if the 1s and 0 are not exactly shaking hands the system will not work. This tells you many things for instance digital cables if the... | |
If you were serious about sound you would... @mbmi Love that idea, here is why digital is cool. the handshake between the sender and receiver is either a 1 or a 0 so there’s really no room for error that is the power of digital. Of course there are other errors in the system like timing issu... |
