  • I want a gun that shoots silver

  • what's the name of the music?

  • @fuckutube21 Yes what you say is true for most all recordings today, but I was refering to the master recording tapes used in earlier recordings, that are sometimes coverted to digital. I have some direct to disc vinyl recordings as well as some digtally recoreded LPs.

  • @maynardcat Im a producer and I produce in wav, I dont record anything, all sampling etc, no tapes involved, so in my case or any digital producer that records into digital format, or uses samples, syhts etc etc there is no tape whatsoever, the mix and pre-mastering is all digital.

  • I have decided to not buy CD's anymore. Instead using discogs for vinyls :D

  • @hopop313 Sony did try that... but failed... They caled the system for Minidisc!

  • @maynardcat Thanks Bill, couldn't have said it better myself...

  • @fuckutube21 Sorry your mistaken vinyl is a copy of the original recording from the original master tape.

    A digital recording is a computer's interpitation of the original sound. Some musical harmonics can be lost in digital over sampling producing the harsh cold sterile sound associated with some digital recordings. On hgher end sound systems good vinyl sounds better than CDs. Vinyl has a higher frequency than CDs. Super CDs, and DVD sound can be quite good, but not MP3,Wav, or CDs.

  • Why didn't anyone ever think to make records like floppy disks? They could be sold in a square (or round) plastic protective case with an opening of a 1/2" on both sides (for the stylus). It could be made in such a way that the record spins around inside the plastic casing, but the casing stays still. The whole concept is completely borrowed from the floppy disk. This would TOTALLY prevent scratching,warping and dust. Tell me what do you think?

  • Vinyl is in no way superior to CD's. Not in dynamic range, not in fidelity. That said, modern CD's have very low dynamic range...not because of CD technology, but because of poor mastering by studios - artificial loudening that kills dynamic range. Google "loudness war" for more info.
