Whole takes have edits :)
What would be fun is to release ALL the takes. That would be cool.
Having worked on a number of live, unedited recordings, I can say
that they are mostly not unedited.
Even taking whole phrases, or even pieces, is still some editing, but

I work a lot with a particular singer who responds very well to
audiences, and the audiences to him. Studio recordings with him
tend to be a lot safer and therefore blander. For our next cd,
we've done three studio edited recordings together so far, I've
talked him into a live recording.

Absolutely, yes, it is better to have more bits. I'm just saying the
primary advantage, one of many, for the 24 bits is the depth of the
sound and the easy volume changes
I don't think EQ will do it, the free room simulator software or the
more expensive professional versions help a little bit, but once you
lose the essential harmonics
it is difficult to replace them. When using budget mics, the main
thing is minimize the reflections. So here you need a really

are helpful, although I am not technologically competent enough to

In this case, you will want 48/24 unless you wish to make a CD
recording, for that you need 44.1/24.
Does this mean that one can only burn this type of file to an audio CD?
Thanks again!
Dennis
CDs are 44.1/16 bit, and 44.1 is a bad fraction.
In converting 44.1/24 to CD, the music is organized into blocks, and
the extra bits are tossed (remember that they can be used for gain),
but if you record at 44.1 you then can get almost exactly that info
onto the CD.
If you record at 48, you
Thanks, David, for all the further information. Very helpful!
For $100 or less you can get a sound card for a laptop or PC that has
exceptional sound.
Do you have any specific recommendations?

Hi David,
I thought that one benefits in high resolution recording because there is
some room left for mastering like reverb etc...so that we don't loose
quality in the end. Obviously this is more important when we deal with rock
or pop music where we have lots of effects involved, but still

When presented with the long list of choices, unless disk space is
really an issue, you are looking at 44/24 for CD, 48/24
I wish I could understand any of this..

Sorry...
When you buy a flash audio recorder--a great teaching/learning tool--
you have to decide in the settings how much resolution to use.
There's lots of settings, and the manufacturers are not helpful.
The bits is like (but not exactly like) the number of megapixels on a
camera, more

The simple answer is that it depends on what you will do with the recording.
All converters are tweaked a bit to favor a particular notch.
However, unless you will be using the zoom professionally, your
concerns will be the final format.
In this case, you will want 48/24 unless you wish to make

The manual says PC and Mac supported. There is a operating system

Valéry,
I would like to add my voice to those who have already praised your work. I
have long enjoyed your flawless performances on YouTube, and I am amazed
that you get such a warm, mellow tone from synthetics. Great work! I hope
that you are back on the baroque list as well.
Best regards,
I agree Stephan
Valery, i hope you''ll decide giving concert in major venues : you desrve
