[Sursound] Renting a Soundfield Microphone in Germany
Dear Group, I am looking for a Soundfield ST350 or ST450 to rent in Germany for a project. So far, I have only found a place that has a ST250. Do you have any suggestions on finding one of these ?

As Dave implicitly states, the frequency response of analog tape is limited by the playback gap length. However, while the peak of this response is usually around 15kHz, the first zero output is only an octave higher and thus the slope has to be quite steep. (I have no access to graphs at present.) But it does sound good! David ___ Sursound mailing list Sursound@music.vt.edu https://mail.music.vt.edu/mailman/listinfo/sursound
Re: [Sursound] Making a standalone 8ch player
Apparently the reason that above 48 khz is frowned on by some is nothing to do with niquist/the range of human hearing etc but rather distortions in reproduction equipment when using very high sample rates that can introduce artifacts and actually make things sound worse. This article makes this point and evewn includes some experiments and filesw you can use to test on your own eqwuipment to see if these artifacts are produced on your system : http://productionadvice.co.uk/high-sample-rates-make-your-music-sound-worse/ As for bit rate - well most people agree, especially in the mixing stages, a higher bit rate is a good thing. -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
