I am trying to find out where I picking up .5dB, I have no idea at this point where. The recording is made from tape loop of my preams into Pacific Microsonics. The meter of Pacific show that at the very loudest peaks the signal stay at minus .15...

[quote user="manisandher"] And I can indeed replicate this effect... but only with my RME FF800 and not with my Weiss AFI1.
With the FF800 (slaved to the Pacific), changing the Pacific's wordclock does indeed change the speed of any audio/vide...

There was one of those PC Audio demo show in CA. The AA guy, John Swenson, when there, posted his comments

I do not extend a lot of credit to those demos; I also do n...

[quote user="DHT4ME"]Well we know that Steinberg who created Wavelab is also behind ASIO. The Ottachan ASIO notes state that Wavelab was the sonic standard for compiling the plugin. It is possible to get very close to the Wavelab sonic standard...

[quote user="Max Shatsky"] You say that the digital read from your transport is better than the multiple reads of CD-Rom with EAC software? Thats interesting!!! [/quote]
Well, tell me dive you data and you make your own concussions. I read CDs...

I am not sure what all those conversations are all about. No one argue that a recording shell not hit 0dB and it was no my objective to prove it. The point that I was trying to make is that Wavelab meter did measure the right amplitude and the file i...

It is quite Sunday morning here in Massachusetts, snow, sun, rain… Coming this morning to basement where we have a full scale gym I sow wify is abusing a machine that he does not like. I asked “what happen to your favorite machine?” It got a virus “...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Lynx slaved from Pacific is way more preferable configuration then Pacific and Lynx with independent clocks. I did not detect that when Pacific serves clock then only the amount of HF was changed as Mani reported. What I he...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]So, what I use Pacific in DD mode then Pacific and Lynx run digital circular reference and this mode does not make any sense to me, unless I do specific DD task, that I practically never do. The Cat[/quote]Yes, I see your ...

As Tony points out, there are some digital cards with supposedly good
converters in them. The Lynx Studio LynxTwo or Lynx L22 cards are
said to work well. But the computer IS a very noisy environment, and
the idea of converters in it scares ...

[quote user="manisandher"] If I were feeling benevolent, I'd say the organisers didn't want to turn the meeting into a marketing event for any one particular manufacturer (although it seems Amarra did quite well it this respect). It's more likely...

Been using samplitude with the AES16 without a hitch. Never crashed sounds very good.when i used the L22 for Dig I/O that was very unreliable.Samplitude doesn't require restart all I do is change the External clock and everything changes automatical...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I do not know what you are trying to do, why do you need the Lynx card, why is need to be modified and what does it mean “powered individually”, the people looks like sell power supply and they push the notion of individual...

Quite sensational, truly. I can’t not at this point to say that it is better of worth: Lavry Gold AD and DA chain of the Pacific. The Pacific has own “softness” twist and some extra futures making it difficult to “compare” with Lavrys. Much higher in...

OK, it now looks like my dive in the world of PC is over and I pretty much know where I am staying. A well of so ago I was completely ignorant about the subject but now I could at least to understand what the common buzz-worlds means and able to ask ...

Stick with ASIO was talking with some people from Lynx and they say this is the most direct setup.Bypasses all over driver and the crappy windows k-mixer which is horrible.Also as a sidenote they prefer the PC to MAC's because of ASIO, they said that...
|
I looked what is around and I did not like whatever I see. The industry music server machines are all crap and mostly made to copy CDs and to play them from semi-intelligent applications. My requirements are very specific and not of the existing mac...

Well, having accused Daniel of being less responsive than before, he replies to an email I sent him in lightning fast time!As well as assuring me that he is on the case, he also attached the AES3-2003 specs. It seems there are NO specs for the wordcl...

If you follow this thread and my successes and tribulation with PurePower regenerators than you remember that I had problem with sound running two PP2000 for right and left channels. So, I had everything, including my DAW plugged into on PP2000,...

Guys, a few more questions that I can’t understand: (or understand it wrong)
The Lynx AES16 card has only AES/EBU inputs and output and no analog in or out. So presumably, the made a good pro card that would be only AES/EBU infract for PC and despit...

I do not know what you are trying to do, why do you need the Lynx card, why is need to be modified and what does it mean “powered individually”, the people looks like sell power supply and they push the notion of individual power but no one said that...

I use dual wire mode from Pacific and single wire mode from Lavry. I do not think that there is a difference between single and dual wire modes if the mixer is done properly. I prefer dual wire modes as Lynx clock slaving works very stupidly in dual ...
|
JP, that are funny settings. You source the clock from AES line but do lock it. I do not know at what rate you record but you’re A/D looks like output 88K, you card read 44K and it is not locked – a complete mess. Call to Lynx, they have incredib...
|
Romy,I've wanted to do this comparison for a while now. Apart from just not having the time recently, the biggest obstacle has been not being able to use the Pacific in Master mode above 96KHz. As you know, it will only output a clock at 1x/2x 44...
|
I do not know what to say. Daniel is very knowledgeable person and it is the dual-wire specification (as I was told today) then I would doubt that Mr. Weiss would not comply with it. It is possible that it does it, you might not know how to activate ...

1) I play a CD on an 'excellent' CD transport. I take the digital output from this (spdif or AES) and connect it to a PC interface (a Lynx or RME card). I capture the digital output on the PC as a .wav file using Wavelab or something similar.2) I...
|
I was playing some 168K and 192K files recently and I have discovered that the higher sampling rate the more sensitive Sound to Pacific serve in master mode. At 1X Sound slightly better in Master Mode, still tolerable with independent clocks. At 2X t...
