  • I finally found a comprehensive article on Windows audio APIs. Thank GOD! Even the author had a tough time tracking down info, apparently.
    Science introduces an evil meritocracy to the golden ears' inclusive, democratic wonderfulness.
    What golden ears will never grasp: you can't make meaningful comparisons with adjectives; you have to use numbers. Numbers are reproducible.
    Once audio gear becomes so much about "lifestyle" as it does about measurable performance, all sorts of mischief results.
    You know, these LSO *recordings* are actually better than I first thought. It's just the performances that don't cut it. UM med school...

    New computer being delivered today, one with built-in WiFi. Hope I'll be able to toss the Netgear crap.

    Well, these AKG K240's do make things sound flatter after you remaster with them.
    I can see why, in these days of cross-checking studio mixes on portable devices, 600-ohm headphones might be a hard sell.
    Michael Fremer's fans will never read the publications in which Fremer gets laughed at. Fremer knows this and proceeds accordingly.
