be made when you are recording and switching between the console stereo out feed (analog), the output of the hi res pcm dac, and the output of the dsd dac. There one has a controlled "accurate" reference. To date the console monitor of the mics in is well represented by hi -res pcm. Read my report and weep. Nary a difference between DSD and 24/192 pcm. In fact, 192 is encoding more data than DSD.The other guesses that many inmates make here are world's removed from the actual record making, so remain a guess.

can you point me to a link to your report? i would like to read it.i am intrigued by your comment of "nary a difference between DSD and 24/192 pcm" - am i given to understand you find both formats equally good? in that case that would be interesting because DSD is at half the bitrate of 192/24.
does that then mean DSD multichannel is better than MLP multichannel which is only at 96/24?
Let's stick to the topic at hand and the facts. DSD is not half the bitrate of 24/192 by any means. The data throughput is close to 192, but not quite as high. My report is on this discussion board ad nauseum. Yes, our multiple tests show that 24/192 is equivelent to DSD without the need to buy all new equipment. No, I don't find both formats equally good---I find the hi speed pcm to be better sound wise and in technical specification.
this means DSD is close to half bitrate of 192/24
i searched for all posts authored by you and containing the word "report" and found only 3 posts (two of which are in this thread), none of which contains a URL to a report.
