RE: Video: The Distortion of Sound...

Maybe the designer of the Clari-Fi even has the two types of compression confused.... I listened to that demo again, and effect was *awful*.... Flat-out awful....

The sonic losses of data compression are pretty subtle (my MP3 vs. WAV test bears this out), so an enhancement shouldn't have a dramatic effect to the track.

I applaud the video of raising the awareness of compression. But you are correct about the intermixing of the two types of compression. Whether it was out of ignorance or out of deceit, I'll presume the former. I just hope this "enhancement" doesn't catch fire like asynchronous conversion or Auto-Tune.
