the whole "ya but its all analogue" argument is true but imo the mad noise, dynamic range and inconvenience factors completely overshadow any issues digital might have

2018-02-23 00:55:36 UTC  

ye but its cool dude

2018-02-23 00:55:48 UTC  

its just spinning plastic

2018-02-23 00:55:54 UTC

2018-02-23 00:55:55 UTC  

wheres the fun in listenin to classical

2018-02-23 00:56:02 UTC  

if you don't have to get up and turn it over

2018-02-23 00:56:10 UTC  

It's irrelevant either way, cause it's recorded from a digital source anyway these days

2018-02-23 00:56:31 UTC  

eh there are some purist studios who still give a shit for some reason

2018-02-23 00:56:43 UTC  

but yeah almost all of it will have been converted at least once

2018-02-23 00:57:29 UTC

2018-02-23 00:57:56 UTC

2018-02-23 01:05:24 UTC  

maybe they're just deaf lol

2018-02-23 01:05:46 UTC  

probably

2018-02-23 07:32:26 UTC  

There is no point of going beyond 16 bit irl
At 85db listening you only need 75db of range.
Unless the headphones can reproduce the slight noise a falling leaf makes and the chance of your eardrums still picking it up at >18

2018-02-23 09:08:15 UTC  

Yes or no

`hello guys welcome to my guide`

2018-02-23 13:44:15 UTC  

Conclusion: fuck ogg, opus is ok, and MP3/flac/opus 512 best

2018-02-23 13:45:12 UTC  

opus 192 is fine for vocal focused pieces

2018-02-23 13:45:26 UTC  

clearenuff™

2018-02-23 14:08:32 UTC  

i managed to tell the diff erence between 320 mp3 and flac once

2018-02-23 14:08:41 UTC  

i had toplay the same 0.5s snare though over and over again

2018-02-23 14:08:50 UTC  

the flac souded slightly crispier

2018-02-23 14:12:41 UTC  

yeah you gotta be a major autist to care enough

2018-02-23 14:12:50 UTC
