Cool.
When were these (all the Stevie Wonder) digital transfers done? I read some where they were done around 2000.
Can you provide any information?
All I can say now is "very recently"!

Can you comment on what the source was? Original analog master tape, or a digital recording/copy?
Probably the dumbest thing I've read over at "CA"
"Compressed, and by quite a bit. I won't be buying it on the dynamic range plots alone."
"I just can't do this one, based on the compression. Too much chance (sorry, guys) that what sounds "good" is simply louder. "
They're talking about the Dead album "Workingman's Dead" which was ripped from a DVD-A. This is what happens when you listen with your eyes. You miss out on a ton of great music! Such a shame......
Bruce
maybe the question was already raised:
what/why is the difference between 96/24 and 192/24 transfers?
Frankly, it seems that I DO HEAR the difference, although 96/24 shall be perfect already, isn't it?
thanks,
I have the ripped files from that DVD-A, which I will look at when I'm home later. But as Andre says, it's rare for a Dead album to be very compressed (although a few are) and I don't remember that one being compressed.

Here is what upsampled files look like. As you can see, they both fall off the chart at -124dB, the theoretical limit of 24bit.
One file has been upsampled with Korg AudioGate and the other file has been upsampled with the Pyramix Apodizing filter.
Is there another reliable way to measure DR?
