While they aren't all lossy, there are still plenty of lossy reels in the Day By Day series. I only had to open 6 reels randomly before I found a lossy one (422A). Also, wasn't Day By Day was used as the backbone of A/B Road?iPanggo wrote: ↑Sun Oct 08, 2023 9:46 am I wanna make a quick statement right here:
The "nagra is always lossy" myth has been around forever, and can be disproven simply by checking out any Yellow Dog release after 1998, mainly Day By Day or even Leaning On A Lamppost. The original Day By Day series has an amazing full-spectrum high quality (although noise reduction was probably used later on in the volumes). Based on this simple fact, I conducted my research for my Watching Rainbows set, by busting myths and formulating theories which I am more and more convinced of. The ATRAC transfer of the Nagras is indeed the most popular source, used mostly in A/B Road, but New Blue Soap butchered the quality of every source used since Spleeter destroyed the audio spectrum by removing every frequency above 11khz.
Day By Day was indeed used in some places on A/B Road, I can recall some tracks on the 3rd and also the end of the 8th. And yes, to add more detail to this, the rolls 134A to 148A, and 416A to 431A are lossy in DBD, but still not ATRAC and transfered differently, therefore they're still "less lossy".masterjedi wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 5:06 pmWhile they aren't all lossy, there are still plenty of lossy reels in the Day By Day series.
