So what happens when you listen to these musical samples with the provided free DBT testing software? http://www.pcabs.com/technical/sample_rates/index.htm Hi Arny, I can't access the link you've sent, server is down I think. I don't know what DBT testing is, but I assume you want to show the degrading effects of sample rate conversion? I'm aware of this however this effect is very very small I hope. Have not heard it for myself yet as the equipment (Mytek, Lynx and Z-link) I've just ordered and isn't in my studio yet (giving my studio a complete overhaul ![]() The Z-link specs show -120db for THD + noise together (going into the Quantec), and the Lynx AES16-SRC (wet Quantec going back into my computer) sample rate conversion specs say 142db dynamic range (!). I know specs aren't allways everything but with sample rate conversion what else could matter? Also this sample rate conversion is now only for the reverb not for a whole mix and I don't think I'll find it audible at all, but I'll let you know once my equipment has arrived if you want. I know most people reading this probably think I'm too worried about very small differences etc but I think it DOES matter, a lot. I make music for my own enjoyment and art, not for money I know that's whole different story. And deep detail and perfection (and perfection in the right imperfection) can make music so much more involving and touching. btw since were talking here about quality and accidently about digital reverb, there's something I wanted to get off my chest for a long time now: LEXICON 960L SUCKS!!!!!! BIGTIME!!! Sorry about that but I really had to let that one out in the open, I was foolish enough once to buy it... Maybe I've even done a good deed and prevented someone else from buying that totally overpriced piece of sh*t ;-) ok my rant is over.. time to go to sleep it's 9 in the morning here lol |

No, I can't type. http://www.pcabx.com/technical/sample_rates/index.htm Sorry, I should have tested the link. I don't know what DBT testing is, but I assume you want to show the degrading effects of sample rate conversion? You might say that. You might want to start with the site's home page - http://www.pcabx.com I'm aware of this however this effect is very very small I hope. Have not heard it for myself yet as the equipment (Mytek, Lynx and Z-link) I've just ordered and isn't in my studio yet (giving my studio a complete overhaul ![]() You might want to do some listening tests before you are emotionally committed to the new investments... |

But there's a huuuge difference between that and running a whole project in 48k vs 96k! I can easely tell the difference between many things done in 48k vs 96k, and if you can't, go to the docter to have your ears checked ;-) |

You won't like me when I'm not nice. ;-) |
