I facepalmed so hard, it's not even funny. I actually said "Holy shit" as I was watching.
This guy clearly has something against digital. And of course, he has so much old analog gear, so it's his business to delude himself and others into believing that his product is markedly superior.
Look up "Audio Myths Workshop" here on YouTube, as there are lots of vital informational nuggets in there. And, for Christ's sake, look up the Nyquist-Shannon Sampling Theorem.
Ok actually this maybe a bit radical, like I think there's some good in analog AND digital. Of course Digital is more accurate than that, but also still DON'T SOUD AT ALL LIKE ANALOG, especially High END analog gear (like those Manley and Crane song gear you can see on this video). But he is as wrong as saying we can only hear from 20 hz to 20 khz. It's not about physics but about tools qualities, I can assure you that doing Mastering myself as a professionnal :)
Oh my god. This dude does not know anything abut digital sound. He is spreading missinformation in this video. It looks like like he's making up his own physics to accommodate a personal bias for analog gear(which is very often thing with these so called mastering engineers). I woulkd like to make blind test with him :)
I had the pleasure of having a few of my early singles mastered by John, he did a superb job and has a great ear. True gentleman. Interesting that his room layout has changed quite a bit since I was there, large main monitors now horizontal too.
@mikethamike Essentially though the point John was trying to get across was correct in terms of accurately representing the true shape of the waveform at higher frequencies. The question is more whether that accuracy is important, if you break sounds down to their sine wave fundamental and harmonics, are those upper harmonics still needed when the human hearing won't go beyond that anyways, which is a whole other subject in itself.

LOL gotta love the spreading of miss information on this video.

henri, eres un fiera. No tengo palabras. Larga vida al vinilo, larga vida a lo analógico.
PURA VIDA.
