Understanding Sample Rate

Didn't work, Sport. You just don't have an answer.

 No !

Just like many other members , I would prefer not to even read your rants.

However, if they are directed at me I may sometimes feel obliged to give a cursory reply.

 

How a Digital Audio file sounds, or a Digital Video file looks, is governed to a large extent by the Power Supply area. All that Identical Checksums gives is the possibility of REGENERATING the file to close to that of the original file.

Make it as cursory as you want.

But if you make it totally irrelevant, as your last one  was, and drag in assorted 'passers by', as you also did,   to avoid  answering the  points,  it just makes you look like some sort of crank, and we wouldn't want that,  would we?

I have no interest in anything you may have to say.

Is that plain enough ?

I think the thread topic ran its course some time back when it became clear that Beerandmusic wasn't really interested in "understanding sample rate".

The forum would be a much better place if everyone were less convinced of how right they were.

On a DAW, you can easily change the filter steepness and cutoff shift to achieve this and more:

funny, I use 20 steepness and .93 when I upsample PCM.  Though I don't have the interface for iZotope SRC, I achieved my Audirvana settings by looking at the RTA in fabfilter to observe rolloff frequency and noted associated aliasing.  Took me an hour to get what you seem to have modeled out in mere seconds!

OK, many of the above have overseas owners or investment, many manufacture in the far east, at least in part.  We live in a globalised world.  In the UK we also make more cars now that ever, such as Honda Civics, Nissans, Toyotas and Mini's which are really small BMW's.  Jaguar has Indian owners, Rolls Royce and Bently have German owners, It's the way of the world and unlikely to change.  It's all good, we are all friends now.

Most of then aren't 'British' at all.  EG - Bentleys are just a fancy body on a Vollkswagen Phaeton. And some of the others don't exist.

 

Chord Cables have got nothing to do with High Fidelity.

 

Who 'assembles' that horrible looking 'car'? :D

Yes, as I mentioned Bently are German owned now, and how much BMW you get in your Rolls Royce depends on which model you buy, but on the flip side, the Mercedes F1 car and Engine are British built, albiet by a very international team of engineers.  It's all part of the free market economy, make the world great again.!

How big is your shed?:|  In other news, I have just had the need to use some toilet paper, and with my curiosity peaked by your post, I checked for the country of manufacture, and all it says is "Manufactured for Waitrose", which while quite posh, leaves me none the wiser.  It's pretty good paper though, I'm very happy with it.

Today morning I published the article, where sigma-delta and R2R based DACs are compared https://samplerateconverter.com/educational/r2r-ladder-dac-vs-sigma-delta

DAC comparison infographic from the article:

Thanks, I'm enjoying the read.

 

I don't like the formatting though, it's very hard to read.

Can you restrict the frame width so that a line of text is not as wide as the display screen?

Do you mean page size view of my site at your device?

Could you give me screen resolution of your device (here or to private message)?

The resolution is 1920 x 1080.

 

In this example you will see what I mean:

P.S.: can you limit the width to 1200 tops?

Mine's got Theresa May's picture on every sheet.

 

When  her Whelk stall fails she could be next week's  MQA shill on here. That will match her 'abilities' perfectly.

Thank you for information.
I understand, that you meant.
I will think how to limit text panel at my site.
Tops are pixels?
