bmoura Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Love this! A nice way to check out albums available in Native DSD and build your collection in both Multichannel and Stereo. As my brother said when we were in college "Free is Good". https://justlisten.nativedsd.com/ Link to comment

christopher3393 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 This is my first DSD download. It has me listening. Thanks for making it so easy. Link to comment
Jud Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Aargh - by the time I got around to downloading the Wispelwey was gone! (The new one's great, don't get me wrong.) Can someone tell me the track name? Would like to listen to the sample - maybe I want to buy the album. One never knows, do one? - Fats Waller The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious.

Today's is 34313 Track 6. Putting that in the site Search gets: SHOSTAKOVICH, WEINBERG AMSTERDAM SINFONIETTA It's a great album. I'm a big Shostakovich fan. Enjoy! Link to comment

tailspn Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 Ahh Jud, I misunderstood! I thought you were looking for today's track ID. Glad Brian understood! BTW, the daily track turns over at midnight Amsterdam local time. That's 6PM for us Easterners. Link to comment

BTW, the daily track turns over at midnight Amsterdam local time. That's 6PM for us Easterners. And 3pm each day for those of us on the West Coast, Pacific Time.... That info (the time the free track changes) needs to be added to the Just Listen web site so everyone knows how the program works. Thanks to Tom (aka TailSpn) for explaining it. Link to comment
The Sound Guy Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I don't see any free download for today! Has the free daily track been stopped? Link to comment
tailspn Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 I don't see any free download for today! Has the free daily track been stopped? No, the free download hasn't been stopped, but the "automatic daily update" from a preloaded list of files site function doesn't always work as it should. It'll be back up as soon as it can be corrected. Thanks for the heads up! Link to comment
wisnon Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Tom, when will you port some of the high quality MA stuff (analog and DSD recorded) over to NativeDSD? Stuff like your Calamus El-Andalus album... Link to comment
ted_b Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Norman, As I stated a few times, we are waiting on Todd. Nothing much to do until then. The free ones on Just Listen were what I had from him (and he gave his ok). "We're all bozos on this bus"....F.T.

bmoura Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The Free DSD Download of the Day is up. The selection is "Non Piu Mesta, Op. 12" by violinist Ning Feng on Channel of China. Listen and consider buying the album as they say.... Link to comment
tailspn Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 OOPs, I mixed up Tom with Todd. My bad. We're joined at the hip wisnon Todd and MA are Ted's find, and he's been talking with him when Todd's available. As with the other labels on nativedsd.com, obtaining the DSD edited masters is a MUCH different preposition than just ripping their disks and uploading the result. It's worth the time and effort, but the time is much longer than I would have ever expected. Link to comment

Masters are the real deal...the holy grail. Link to comment
tailspn Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 Yes Tom, I know its waaay better than PS3 rips (even though those are already excellent). Masters are the real deal...the holy grail. Well, emotionally and marketing wise, way better, but the jury's still out about the actual sound quality differences, if any. For me, it's a preference thing. Like the difference between a real diamond and a great 1/1,000 the cost Cubic Zirconia. For all practical intents, they're identical. But I know the value between them, even though for the bling flashing/listening, they're the same. DSD edited masters are just earlier in the production process, prior to the authoring and conversion to dst format stage. That's why it's taking us so long to get the content from the labels. It's not the way it's normally done. Normally labels send out the commercial pressing in whatever form produced, and the download sites transfer the files to their servers. For very carefully produced DSD recordings with a minimal or no post production format conversions, it does make a difference, at least to my ears, on my full range electrostatic speaker system. For studio originated heavily processed music, I can't imagine it being different at all. Todd's work, like most on nativedsd.com deserves the best file origination available. Link to comment
tailspn Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 As an additional example, download the Mahler 1 finale session file from nativedsd Just Listen. Not only is it the un-edited raw stereo analog mix, it's the BFO orchestra as they really are, flubs and all. Recording sessions are very different than concerts. In a session, because the final result is a edited collection of several takes, and patches, the conductor and orchestra take chances they otherwise would never do in a paid concert. It's just a different experience, for me at least. Link to comment

The two MA DSD Downloads in DSD128 on Just Listen are excellent. Having the entire albums on NativeDSD will be a big plus for many DSD DAC owners! Link to comment
