(313) Iridite Productions tonight on WZBC Test Pattern
Tonight's Test Pattern will focus on Glasgow label Iridite Productions. From their press package: "It’s all about the music" Iridite was founded on this principle in the summer of 1999. Dedicated to producing quality electronic dance music, and acting as a platform for both established and new artists whose work was yet to be heard. This music would be unified not strictly by genre but by its quality, the styles ranging from down tempo to Detroit inspired Techno, Dub and House. Initially the aim was to bring together different artists on each release, each track being the strongest possible selection by that artist for the EP at that time, creating a fluid mix of high quality music without trying to hard to be overtly "eclectic". >From Matt: I will be playing tracks from Iridite's entire 10-year history (well, most of it). If time permits, I will also present some unreleased, untitled tracks by unnamed artists coming up on future Iridite releases. Listen in tonight at 6PM (eastern US time) on 90.3 FM in the Boston area or www.wzbc.org -- matt kane's brain techno radio at: http://hydrogenproject.com capoeira in boston http://capoeirageraisboston.com aim -> mkbatwerk ; y! -> mkb218 ; gtalk -> mkb.dirtyorg

Re: (313) The MP3 VS Uncompressed Audio test.
I really would like to hear a few tracks, both WAV and MP3 played let's say in Fabric or some other club with a good, finely tuned sound system and then try to hear the difference. i'm arguing that since club music is made for the club, that setting should be considered a benchmarking place for music production/sound quality, that's all. i would on the other hand have a problem with a Bach or Vivaldi recording sounding shyte on my home speakers or headphones, but with dance music i want to have the benifits of the environment for which the music was produced for in the first place. not to diss the all-prevailing, disc-space-saving MP3, just my thoughts on this On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 5:36 PM, kent williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > By all means play uncompressed WAV files. > > No matter what you play, if you care at all you'll get more out of a > system if you spend a little more for proper Digital to Analog > conversion.

Re: (313) The MP3 VS Uncompressed Audio test.
By all means play uncompressed WAV files. No matter what you play, if you care at all you'll get more out of a system if you spend a little more for proper Digital to Analog conversion. I've been using an RME Hammerfall DSP for several years now. I found some TRS 1/4" to Male XLR cables, so I'm running balanced all the way to the house mixer. That seems to make a the difference in sound -- I think I can even hear the difference DI boxes make. And the RME Multiface in general sounds so much clearer in the high end than built-in laptop sound or M-Audio outboard sound interfaces. I only got two responses from people with the courage to try and distinguish between 16 bit uncompressed audio and 320KBS MP3. Now it might be that it was an unfair test, but both people who took the challenge guessed wrong -- the MP3 sample was first. The one other response I got was 'I can't hear any difference whatsoever.' I wasn't an objective listener, and was biased toward the 'no difference' position, but I listened to that sample on my studio monitors and headphones for a long time, and I couldn't hear any difference -- even after I actually extracted the difference between the files and amplified it so I could hear it. I guess all I'm saying is that I don't think properly encoded MP3 files sound noticeably different than uncompressed audio. I also think that big systems -- no matter how expensive or carefully configured-- aren't going to make it easier to hear those differences. I don't think that any objective test of those hypotheses would prove otherwise. On the other hand, there's an art and craft to making music sound really good, and everyone has their own formula that's part voodoo. I get all excited about running balanced to the PA, but if you did a blind test with decent DI boxes and properly matched levels, I might not be able to tell the difference either.

Re: (313) The MP3 VS Uncompressed Audio test.
I'm all for fighting the good fight for sound quality, though. I kind of wonder about the idea that you can hear differences in a big club that you can't on headphones or home speakers. Honestly, I can't hear anything particularly well at 130 decibels, and by the time your sound reaches the loudspeakers it's been through digital->analog->digital conversion, EQ, compression, crossovers and limiters. Several issues to consider. Most PAs are either rubbish, overdriven or poorly setup. Most turntables in clubs are poorly setup with old needles. Most DJs have no handle on levels and overdrive the mixer. For digital DJs the levels thing also applies to some extent but also the equipment used for sound production varies wildly from nice things like MOTUs right down to on-board laptop sound (and worse). Another shades of grey issue, it's certainly not black and white. robin...
Re: (313) The MP3 VS Uncompressed Audio test.
Kent, i was more aiming to the richer, broader and deeper sound i feel the wav provides on a club soundsystem. i cannot comment on this from a sound engineer perspective, but rather subjective experience. i think a good sound system can reproduce low end frequencies i cannot hear at home, maybe sitting too close to the speakers, or speakers are incapable to reproducing these frequencies., but that's the juice that shakes my cells in the club. generally club music strongly focuses on effects of loud sound and following that is the neccecary "breathing space" or headroom that i feel get's tighter with compression. what about the stuff you hear out in clubs ? do you feel there's an extra perspective you gain when you hear a song that you know, played on a loud soundsystem ? is it more feeling than math ? i wonder if we're underestimating the frequencies that we cannot hear but rather feel have an effect on our ears and body On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 2:47 PM, kent williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Actually the MP3 sample is first. > > I'm all for fighting the good fight for sound quality, though. > > I kind of wonder about the idea that you can hear differences in a big > club that you can't on headphones or home speakers.

Re: (313) The MP3 VS Uncompressed Audio test.
i agree with you. tho it sounds indistinguishable i can hear the bottom end in the second part get 'rounded' and looses a bit of breading space, sounds a bit tighter to me. i'm using yamaha HD50M monitors but to really feel the difference i think this should be listened to on a club sound system. but really the difference here is so hard to tell i think regular music consumers would take this test as a waste of time regarding the the sound quality is good enough for listening, with no need for better quality. Specially on car/home stereo, with those 'SUPERBASS' and "EXTRALOUD" functions on HI-FI's that colour sounds, it would be impossible to tell the difference. however, i stick to DJing with wave files and I've heard the difference in the club. generally it depends on the quality and depth of the sound production, of course the more dynamic, spacey stuff gets affected more than,let's say, plink-plonky-3-element song when you compress to mp3.

(313) Vive La Difference! (Re: (313) The MP3 VS Uncompressed Audio test.)
OK I did a second thing that might be of some interest. I took the two samples, edited the starting point very carefully to get them exactly in phase, and then subtracted one from the other. In other words, I made a new sample that was just what was different between the two versions. This produced a very low level signal, which I then normalized so it would be audible: http://www.cornwarning.com/xfer/m500-starlight-diff.wav This is actually a pretty cool sample and I plan on chopping it up to use in tracks.
Re: (313) The MP3 VS Uncompressed Audio test.
I can't personally tell the difference between 320kbps mp3 and 44.1khz wav, but I do believe I can tell the difference between analogue/vinyl and 44.1khz CD music generally speaking. That probably isn't terribly pertinent to the discussion though. ;) On Sat, Sep 27, 2008 at 12:27 PM, Michael Pujos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> OK that was just a test.

Re: (313) The MP3 VS Uncompressed Audio test.
kent williams a écrit : Sean Deason was kind enough to send me a CD of the Model 500 'Starlight' mixes, which I'd already bought in MP3 form from Boomkat. After the discussion yesterday about how MP3s are noticeable on a good sound system, this seemed like a golden opportunity to challenge the golden ears amongst you to a blindfold test of MP3 sonic quality. http://www.cornwarning.com/m500-starlight-blindfold test.wav How this was made: 1. I ripped the uncompressed digital audio from the CD. 2. I cut a short representative sample out of the track. 3. I saved it to an uncompressed WAV file, with no processing whatsoever 4. I saved it as an 320KBS fixed-bit-rate MP3 file. I don't know which MP3 encoder Sony uses this days, but I'd guess they've licensed the current Frauenhofer CODEC. 5. I loaded both the WAV and the MP3 samples back into Sound Forge, and put them together in one file. Here's the challenge -- can you tell which sample comes first? There's a very tiny 'click' that will tell you where one sample ends and the other begins. Listen to it however you want, but if you load it in Ableton Live, set all level faders to 0dB and make sure that warping is turned off for this loop. According to the appendix of the Live Manual, with those settings, the sample passes through without change. If you listen in Winamp or ITunes, make sure that you turn off EQ and effects, and set the volume fader to 100%. If you don't think this is a fair track to try this on, feel free to send me a sample from another record that you think would more clearly show the difference in sonic quality between MP3 and Wav. Link is not working. I'll be trying this using high end headphones, however in my experience WAV and 320K are indistinguishable (but I always buy WAVs). And a test it is a bit meaningless, as if any guess it right there's 1/2 chance it's due to luck. To do that kind of test proper you need to provide both separate WAVs (without us knowing which is which), use an ABX program (such as WinABX) and do at least 10 runs and post the results. I did such a test once and failed it miserably. There's a few golden ears who can pass it successfully: for mos of the population 30K is considered transparent.

I should maybe work with Matt to tune up the hyperreal.org page for the 313 list since it's years out of date... but that's how we roll. About 2010 we'll be up to date for 1999...

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: coming through loud and clear? how was the fest? MEK Well, I can only speak for Monday since I decided not to stand in line for an hour with a bunch of drunken idiots on Saturday night. And as for Sunday I wasn't all that interested in paying $20 for the line-up. However, Monday was amazing. I hung-out with fellow list member Drew D. out of Minneapolis. We got there right when they opened the gate to catch Carl's set. Although C2 didn't really put much effort into his performance he dropped some great cuts and the sound was just right. (By the way if anyone knows the last track that C2 dropped I would be interested to know). After C2 we got out of the heat for a few minutes and re-hydrated. When we returned for Louie Vega who was in the process of putting together a flawless set of deep house--working with the same great sound system C2 was on. Mr. V then came out and sang along with his "Giving You Something With Jazz." Next Blaze came on and did their thing for about 30 - 45 minutes and were excellent and in great spirits. The vibe was amazing with a very nice mix of people. We then jumped over to the main stage to catch about an hour of Derrick's set. Derrick was on his game and the sound was perfect. We then moved back to the house stage where LV and Mr. V tag-teamed on about a dozen or so disco edits and just having a total blast. After dancing non-stop for about 5 hours we went to LaShish for grape leaf and hummus sandwiches. What a great end to the festival for me. As for the afterparties we went to the Soul Bomb party on Friday night, where Malik Alston was definitely the highlight in my opinion. He did a number called (I guess) "I'm On My Way To Chicago ..." which I can't get that one out of my head. On Saturday night we went to the John Arnold / Jeremy Ellis gig. Those guys were hotter than Hades--really tore it up. From there we went over to Oslo to catch the last 15 minutes of Shake's set. Left there and bumped into KDJ who we chatted-up for a couple minutes--he's such a cool cat. Scott Ellis

Etwas klarer und Cleaner natürlich im Sound, aber dennoch housig auf eine Oldschoolart, die nichts mit den anderen Varianten von Oldschool zu tun hat die zur Zeit durch die Gegen flattern, sondern eher Detroitdeepness pur ist.

I've noticed several people sending 'test' messages to the list. Is there a problem? Hit me back off-list. One thing to note -- if you accidentally send 'Multipart Mime' messaes, they are discarded by EZMLM. First thing to check if you don't think your posts are going through!
