Hello Mr. Krieger,
well this is amazing already !
I have just listened through headphones and differences are not night and day but my system is low quality.
But i am sure a lot of Inmates have downloaded and listened to the tracks on very resolving systemsBy the way, I have to say that my feeling is that tracks where there is a great depth of soundstage could be more telling.
I was reading about a comparison between a very high quality LP and its recording made with a Korg dsd digital recorder. A really good one.
The digital copy sounded also good but depth of soundstage was reduced, not on a par with the original. A little collapsed.
I mean that bigger differences could show up more with a high end recording where space is captured very well ... maybe.
Not a recording gone through mix console, compression and so on
Maybe ...
Thanks a lot.
Kind regards,

I tried an ABX test with the two tracks, and failed it.... The only time I was able to notice a difference was burning the tracks to CD-R and listening to it on a good CD rig based system.
Thanks again and very interesting
Maybe it is a Auto-Tune recording ?
I mean, the original compression/manipulation during the recording can have already done the damage.
I was reading here about some Japanese recordings of extreme quality
Maybe in that case differences between original and MP3 could show up more ?
I think it is important to start with an excellent track.
With hihg dynamic and spatial informations.
Thanks again.
Kind regards,

"Maybe it is a Auto-Tune recording ?"
Not that particular track..... It was a primary reason why I selected it. (Although Aleks Syntek, the artist on the clip, did use Auto-Tune in later albums.)
I think running audio evaluations with an Auto-Tune'd track would be like running photo evaluations of skin tones using sodium lamps..........
Hi and thanks for the info.
I think that the bitrate ratio between original and 320K mp3 should be 4.4 to 1 ?
a good saving of space ...
Thanks again.
Kind regards,
