What is this about?

I am updating the series and adding more tracks and more volumes, so I may do some simple artwork too. When I started I had no idea it would run to so many volumes so I didn't bother with any art.

I've been trying to explain this for years, and you have said it so succinctly. Nah, I was just rambling as usual! :lol: One other thing that people fail to consider is that as you get older and your hearing starts to diminish, your brain will try and fill in the blanks - the sounds you are missing...

Hearing test! (test your volume safety and comfort level on the page at 1000Hz) hxxps://www.szynalski.com/tone-generator/ I can hear into the high 11,000's (in one ear!). Below that both ears work... I can just get to 17000 but it's very faint. But what most people think of as "treble" is...

It's hard to imagine Stu not becoming involved with Apple in some way. The more I think about it the more it seems like Stu's passing was a very big deal for John and had a profound effect on how things panned out. He could have been the head of Apple instead of Neal....now what kind of post Beatle...

It's funny, when I first bought a cd recorder (a big Philips job that cost a fortune) I was so excited about being able to make cds. The discs also cost an absolute fortune, but I was hypnotised by the whole cd mythos. When I think now of how much money I wasted on that recorder and blank cds, I cri...

Based on what we've learned lately, I would rip at 32 bit/48khz and then normalize the peaks to 0db afterwards and save as a 24 bit/48k file. If you just want to make a cd then capture in 44.1k... no point in resampling if you don't need to. If you capture in 32 bit it doesn't matter if the audio cl...

I also found this very informative article: https://www.mojo-audio.com/blog/the-24bit-delusion/ Key points 16-bit Red Book CDs have a dynamic range of over 96dB. 20-bit digital master tape has a dynamic range of over 120dB. 24-bit modern HD formats have a dynamic range of over 144dB.
