this studio is getting weird.
i wonder what artists it would attract.

really when you think about it, design for alot of things
hasnt changed for 100 years, it any appreciable way

does your mackie allow you to take channels out or do you
have to go in by taking whole panels off and so forth.

true. just all looks a bit different and smaller and more
efficient.

its a on large pcb board job i think, its the one thing i
haven't had open i love having a oke around, one of my
synths had some autumn leaves in it, had obviously been
stored ina garden shed at some point

when you think of digital signals do you see steps?

depends on the resolution of the signal,

its weird,the digital steps are a way to represent the
information on screen

a more accurate way would be dots. even so , when the signal
comes out the dac it becomes a smooth wave again.

it amazing cause if you play a 10k signal into a 44.1 khz
sample rate DAW thing

the wave looks all mashed up on the pc timeline. but if
you play it out the DAC again into an anlaogue oscilloscope
it turns back into the pure wave.

anyway there was this video i cant find ,if i find it i'll
post.

yes are you saying the DAC interpolates the information
between point A and point B to create a continuous signal?

Why does it make things sound better?

not that it sounds better its just that what you see in
your sequencer when zooming in is not what you see on an
analogue oscilloscope when you play it out the pc back into
analogue world.

if you ever record a high freq sine wave into your pc and
look at it closely it looks completely mashed up. but that
is just a digital visual representation...or something.

yes you dont get that smooth continuous signal

Whats important i think is information content, if our brain
has a finite capacity to differentiate between a digital and
analogue signal .

you can notice this best in variable bit rate audio codecs,
when the information density is at its greatest thats when
the resolution of the signal is at its highest.

i imagine a DAC is referential, however information is lost
in the initial step from analogue to digital, that will
never been regained fully in the reverse step, because of
the interpolation you are getting a facsimile of the
original analogue signal, however if the data rate of the
digital signal is high enough you would never ever detect a
difference, i think it would be really obvious on low data
rates, I reckon a DAC would act like some sort of filter was
applied to the sound

people speak of the "speed" of a DAC and ADC that makes it
sound better.

my brain hurts as i act vegan ice cream

i think dusty knows something, i think he attacked me once
about nyquist once many years ago. i ruffled his duster
saying i could hear a difference in recording above 44.1khz

that was when i had an EMU 1616m by the way. lol : )

also sampling messing about with vari pitch, higher sample
rates are great for sound design.

nyquist's theorem explains why CD sample rates are twice the
frequency of human hearing, meaning you cant possibly hear
any aliasing

not sure. just sampling with a microphone and messing with
the vari pitch, higher sample rates let your pitch down with
more clarity. it still sounds analog.

like i sampled my drum 192khz. and vari pitched it down
allot and it still sounded smooth and nice cause there was
information there to be used.

the rim shot harmonics still sounded smooth . whereas when
doing the same with 44.1 it didnt sound as good using vari
pitch.

yes in that case i will always smile at optimal quality,
unless i want some sort of special aliasing effect. Its what
i like about amiga music, the aliasing sound you hear on the
samples

the sample rate of the icecream? i dont know, but its
expensive about 5.50

the fudge streaks inside the ice cream is very sweet and
gooy very moreish.

if you ever get any ...id say eat dinner first.
