Mark Morgon-Shaw 539 Posted December 26, 2022 Most people can't write / arrange / record / mix to a level that outperforms 24/48 and if they can they're probably not using CBB 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glenn Stanton 556 Posted December 26, 2022 i don't know about that. i've seen people get professional results from Logic, Ableton, and FL 🙂 so it's definitely the craftsman, not the tools 🙂 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was a bit of an ego hit, realizing that those systems were exposing aspects of my recordings that weren't audible with my studio monitors, headphones, and audio interfaces. Stuff like soundstage and imaging, which I always thought was snake oil, turned out to be real. I don't think people here joke about soundstage or audio imaging. And there was no claims audiophile equipment produce the same sound as studio monitors. But there is significant difference in opinions from where all that comes and what it really is... In other words, are DSD/768kHz/etc. really the "keys" to that "great audiophile sound"? Listening some recordings with studio monitors is way less fun then listening them on $100 HiFi player. My 20 years old €40 Yamaha computer speakers with "virtual surround" button pressed produce crazy soundstage, even when they stay near each other. But I don't think based on that someone consider using HiFi player for mixing own songs or computer speakers to check soundstage 😏 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mettelus 627 Posted December 29, 2022 There is always some gimmick out and about, but unfortunately the common limiting denominator is human hearing, which rarely gets discussed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
