Re: Recording levels? -18dbs

Re: Recording levels? -18dbs

Agreed.A signal recorded loud or soft will sound the same. The only difference will be the S/N ratio. With modern recording of 24 bits with a S/N of 144 db, you'll never hear the noise.

Re: Sample Rate Question

I'd be interested in exactly what those differences are. Level, frequency response, noise, distortion, anti-aliasing artifacts or what?

Is it the SRC between 96 and 44.1 that is causing the...

Re: Sample Rate Question

[QUOTE=Jim Morris;2343680] the mixing algorythms are far more mathmatically precise at the higher rates.


Hmm. "More mathematically precise"? How can you be "more precise"? Could you show how?

Re: New iMac

Since Macs can't be downgraded to older OS versions, make sure PT can run on whatever software version your new Mac supports.
