Since it's last build something got changed in its build that removed the needed config options. Looking like I may be running into a brick wall at least with Clementine. This one post will give you a quick answer for Clementine in butu, but the latest 1.2.3 version of Clementine we just upgraded to, no longer has this config option in Preferences LOL Figures, interesting 1 minute read anyway to get a quick grasp.

You will find many solutions for Ubuntu if you read threw the second link I posted in the OP, 9 forum pages worth. I'll get there, just might take some time and work, just was hoping there were a few audiophiles on the forum that had already concurred the issue in PCLOS.
#Setup pc for bitperfect music windows#
Issue exists in Windows also as I understand it though maybe a little easier to fix depending on Windoz version, "if you run WASAPI in shared mode" whatever that is LOL, etc. Most will say that Pulse complicates the setup and to stay with ALSA which I do anyway. Each media manager seems to have it's own config issue along with setups being different if you run ALSA or Pulse. Present_arms, It's not a brick wall limitation of Linux, just a tricky config issue with many ways to approach, none easy. You say "some of those audiophiles" enjoy music on vinyl, while it is in your opinion "technical inferior".There was some way I saw about recording in audacity and then reviewing the specs of the recording, it confused me at the time but I'll can take another look.

So sometimes I am an audiophile, and sometimes I am a romantic drunk.īut I try to get the most out of both, and don't assume there is one truth which everybody should agree on.Īnd something else to think about maybe you are contradicting yourself a little bit. I'd rather enjoy Chet Baker on my mono clock radio, than Katy Perry or JayZ on DSD512. In my opinion your statements are predominantly judging, oversimplifying and categorizing people and their different manners and capabilities of appreciating music and audio. That link only confirmed that I indeed could hear differences, even with the really rather bad selection of material, and discussable manner of relaying it. we seem to forget that the real (biological) world is analogue. Recent research seems to suggest that timing in the analogue signal reaching our ears is more important that" bit perfection" in waveform for listening. If the master is digital, it should be well above the 192 Khz sampling rate, so the resulting analogue wave being copied to the vinyl will also be OK from timing perspective. If the master is analogue, it was never sampled, so the timing is perfect. So stating that 192 KHz is not needed, is old-school.Īnd by the way, timing is why Vinyl is better (in this respect) then digital: as its analogue, the timing is always right. It is correct that you do not need that high frequency to generate the audible spectrum, you need it for timing. On order to be able encode the samples so that 5 µsec differences can be incorporated, you need 192 KHz. That is how your brain adds directionality to sound (you can hear someone coming up from the back and know whether that person is left or right, close or further away). The human ear can actually perceive timing differences down to about 5µsec. MP3 cuts off at lower frequencies (in the high spectrum), so the available numbers of harmonics to recreate large signal changes (black signal) become smaller, so the recreated analogue wave is of lower quality.įurthermore, the article has since its publication been proven wrong. And the information that you point to even explains that. Claiming that the difference between CD and MP3 cannot be heard, is simply wrong. Yes, it seems that there are a lot of misunderstandings about audio.
