Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: Information storage and commercail priorities

Relatively inexpensive digital equipment can be virtually perfect in terms of accurate reproduction. I recently bought a one thousand dollar TASCAM DA-3000 digital recorder and it is perfectly accurate and transparent. Vinyl, on the other hand, is plagued with distortion, which is what makes it sound the way it does. You can prove this to yourself very easily as I did more than 20-years ago: Simply buy a $1000 TASCAM DA-3000 DSD recorder and copy your favorite LP to DSD. I guarantee the digital copy will sound identical to the vinyl record. I've been making transparent digital copies of vinyl since I bought my first DAT recorder in 1991.

This proves there is absolutely nothing wrong with digital. It can copy all the distortion contained in vinyl perfectly. You will believe you are listening to the vinyl LP when in fact your are listening to a digital recording made directly from the LP.

Good luck,
John Elison
