I'm not using linear extrapolation or numeric transformations, but instead trying to emulate what I think a top flight turntable/cartridge would present in a continuous waveform.
As far not adding anything, I think you are wrong. I can clearly hear more subtle details in the music with my upsampling. Even simple dithering techniques have been shown to bring out finer details in music that could not be easily discerned before the dithering was applied. This fact has been generally accepted for several years. I don't want to start another evil-war thread here, so please don't flame me if you think strongly otherwise. -- dudeymon ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dudeymon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12453 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36986 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
