there are plenty of arguments for the very diminishing returns of 192K out there if you google around.
Neither can i, but I can hear the difference in transient response between SS and DS; that I can't hear between DS and QS.JohnRoberts said:I can't hear 192kHz.... I can't even hear 96kHz. 8)
+1. Finding a converter that does actually gors above 60-something kHz is rather hard to find. Most of the chips' internal anti-alias/reconstruction filter seem to cut at 0.35SR at 192k.ruffrecords said:The only use of 192K IMHO is in test equipment so you can check analogue equipment is behaving itself above the audio band,
I don't at all. Having fought against tape noise and distortion for decades, I'm happy with a medium that gives out what it takes in. If I want "colour", I add it in a way I can control. I've tried several of these tape sound plug-ins, it seems they do nothing till they do too much.john12ax7 said:I miss tape.
not sure what that alphabet soup of letters is, but that's OK I will shut up soon.abbey road d enfer said:Neither can i, but I can hear the difference in transient response between SS and DS; that I can't hear between DS and QS.
Back last century I did a lot of work with dynamics processors. If you think the transient response of A/D conversion is difficult, try compressors (but I'm sure you have done that too). Even power amplifier design requires rate of change consideration.Somewhat converter dependant, but not that much IMO, since most converter chips use the same basic algos for anti-alias and decimation filters.
