I made some transcoding experiments with dBPoweramp some time ago. If my memory isn't failing on me (which is quite likely lately) somehow the thing manages to fit 24bits from a lossless file into mp3. Don't ask me how, nor if the result had indeed any extra info resulting from the 24 bits source. The file was bigger than the one made previously processing to down into 16 bits. I can't recall if I tried making V0 and 320 or only 320 files. In any case I see no point at all in using a "higher information" source for the 24 bits, if you're fitting them into a lossy format which is discarding information to begin with. I could consider purchasing Hi-res lossless files from Apple if price is more or less sensible in the HDTracks range, but not at a silly high price. Not that I see much benefit to those 24 bits if they don't come with some extra sampling rate. Sound-wise 24/48 doesn't make much of a difference (and depending on the systems for worse) compared to 16/44.

Why the fuck would I want 24 bit lossy files if they can't even supply me Redbook lossless ones?

Happy birthday to both

Very very happy birthday mate, I wish you a really great one

Happy Birthday!! I wish you're having a great day

John Coltrane - Ballads [24/96]

x2 On first listening it's been kind of "deja senti". Very Radiohead, not very original, and can't find the "experimental" vibe here. We'll see what happens on repeated listening

Happy Birthday mate

Happy Birthday Steve, I wish you have a great one

So, they design crossfeed and all sort of tricks, digital or analogue (as in the Phonitor) to get your headphones sounding like speakers, then this guy designs a trick to get your speakers sounding like headphones, which supposedly improves 3D imaging. Amazing

Happy Birthday gentlemen

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy B-Day

I think Shelly was referring to a Mac Pro, the big one with two xeon processors and all, not a MBP, so no docking station needed, I guess.

Congrats mates!!!! finally good news Dinny, your honey badger comment made me lol. Funny thing

Happy Birthday Jeff

I don't think so. If it were backwards, the wood slices which are clean where the cat is starting to climb his paw, would be covered with snow as are the rest of the ones to the left.

I don't sound very well

Sorry mate

Happy B-day

This too. Enjoying it a lot, thx for posting heads up

Do you want to receive it again?

Really good news Nate, glad for you

It has a great deal of posting variations for a bot
