test

in waiting for my holiday and looking at ripping guides i stumbled upon two breakthroughs:

1. my current soundcard is capable of 24-bit/192kHz rips, and i've found the setting to enable this. this is extra good because i can't afford a new card for a while anyway.

2. how to make it louder. if you listened to my first rip, it was very quiet and i couldn't figure out why. well, i've found out the setting for that too! my new rips are far more listenable.

the ability to make full 24/192 rips opens up the ability to make better 16/44.1 rips; i'll be using iZotope RX Advanced to resample and dither the original resolution and in doing so preserve some of the detail captured that a standard 16/44.1 rip could not.

also, reading back these posts made me realise how a few days ago i didn't understand any of this mumbo jumbo i've written about and i sound like an audiophile nerd (i'm not, just bored).

so, to demonstrate: digital mystikz' remix of love you to life, released on record store day 2010 and limited to 1000. again, no low-end but it allowed me to play around with high sample rates.
