Intel CPUs Don’t Support ECC Memory: How Bad For A/V Quality?
Bob Olhsson replied to chane's topic in General Discussions
Intel Xeon CPUs require ECC memory! My understanding is that memory errors are exceedingly rare today and ECC memory increases latency. -

Spectral Cleaning Comparable To Renovator?
Bob Olhsson replied to brotlose Kunst's topic in English newcomer forum
My understanding is that Robin Lobel has always owned SpectraLayers and had a distribution deal with Sony. I suspect that deal was acquired with the other Sony software and when it expired, Lobel moved to Steinberg because Samplitude already has a spectral editor and Cuebase/Nuendo is by far the most widely used DAW. -
Gibson ceases development of Cakewalk/Sonar
Bob Olhsson replied to Kraznet's topic in General Discussions
The only part of the media creation market that's growing is video and it's growing like the audio market was twenty-five years ago. Cakewalk was willing to embrace Microsoft's new technology ahead of others but I can't picture Microsoft having the slightest interest in any DAW. Apple acquired E-Magic and whatever Macromedia called Final Cut back when it looked like both Adobe and Avid were about to bail rather than embrace system NeXt. -
Gibson ceases development of Cakewalk/Sonar
Bob Olhsson replied to Kraznet's topic in General Discussions
Sad to say, the lifetime updates will make it next to impossible for them to sell it. It's also very likely that they had been trying to sell it for some time. I've known a number of people who were successful audio developers and none of them made very much money other than a handful when they sold out to large corporations twenty years ago. -
Samplitude Pro X3: Spectral Layers Pro & Sound Forge Pro Integration
Bob Olhsson replied to Kraznet's topic in Tutorials
That's how it works in Pro tools but it hadn't occurred to me it would be available in the Wave-Editing Plug-ins.- 10 replies

Samplitude Pro X3: Spectral Layers Pro & Sound Forge Pro Integration
Bob Olhsson replied to Kraznet's topic in Tutorials
I haven't tried that yet. It also didn't allow me to save so I think there may be some kind of permissions issue.- 10 replies

Samplitude Pro X3: Spectral Layers Pro & Sound Forge Pro Integration
Bob Olhsson replied to Kraznet's topic in Tutorials
Is there a way to also add iZotope RX to that menu? Sometimes it works better than Spectral Layers and vice-versa.- 10 replies

I'm editing and mastering an album that was converted to 192 from DSD. I'm finding it is far less stressful to the computer compared to 96 than I expected.

Gibson owns Tascam. I seriously doubt that they own Philips. -
I remember reading that Samplitude began using the Windows Logic Audio MIDI engine a bit before Apple bought Emagic. Does anyone know if that is true?

That's the infamous "next room" effect. Mixing errors that weren't noticed are often blatantly obvious when listening from the lounge with the control room doors open.

By the way, hearing loss begins at birth starting in the midrange and progresses over time with more exposure. It is not a loss of high frequency bandwidth and is not a matter of age or sex which was believed decades ago.

There is a funny story about the EBU spending a fortune developing and blind testing a lossy audio codec only to have some guy in Los Angeles spot an artifact on loudspeakers that was blatantly obvious once people had been told what to listen for. My own jaw-dropping experience of this was a codec demo in a painfully live convention hall. The presenter wasn't sure we'd be able to hear any differences due to the horrendous acoustics. To our amazement what had been subtle in his mastering room was blatantly obvious over the PA system.

Headphones aren't nearly as demanding of low distortion as speakers in a live room! This is why most club DJs won't use mp3s.
