But I was speaking of the future, not to any 'good old days'. *These* are the "good old days" as we'll all discover sometime in the future :-)
Nor was there any suggestion that digital techniques aren't extremely important, flexible and useful for certain tasks. But digital techniques are frequently used today only because they are cheaper and easier to implement. That doesn't make the end result necessarily better. Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- A paean to the good old days of analog is nice, but the primary reason for digital processing having becoming the dominant form is that it's more accurate, can do more things, is more flexible, and generally speaking (there are exceptions) can do them at a lower cost than equivalent analog methods (to the extent that there are equivalent analog methods)...
