Yeah, man, where are you hiding your 16 bit MDM?


I don't know about Scott, but mine are right in the rack. And with
some 500+ recordings, some are great, some are terrible, some are
just what they are, but none would be better if done on a 1/2" 30 IPS
analog recorder.

Besides, let's just say that if one were to set up both analog and
digital recording of a live event, both at optimal levels for the
medium from the same source, do you really think that analog would
win solely due to the fact that it's analog? I have no doubts that
it could sound different, but is better different or is it better?
If you have a room full of people listening and knowing the source
playback, I'm sure they'd all pick out their "thoughts" on what's
best, but here's one place that I'd say that Arny's blind testing
might just tell the true tale.

Even with my 16 bit DA38s I can only find fault with the engineer,
not with the hardware.

24 bits doesn't change that for me!
