SM> topic. Do you think the Nyquiest theorem is fair in saying
SM> a sampling rate of 44kHz can be used on 20kHz signals?
Certainly not. This is audibly not sufficient. It *can* be used to repro
20K, but not with enough resoloution to sound natural. 10 times that rate
would be more appropriate, though we aren't there yet in terms of
processing and storage. The 16/44 standard was adopted in order to get
CDs into production, and start making money for the record companies. :(
SM> Don't you just hate it when amateurs (me included!) think
SM> they know enough to be dangerous? :)
Nope! Anyone with ears can hear the inadequacies in the CD format. (No
offense intended Bonnie.) Take care.
... To reformat a CD-ROM use steel wool and apply light pressure.
