i do use the following chain since quite a while.
Continuator -> Convert St. to 4ch -> foo_wider -> Advanced Limiter foo_wider is used to make a subtle but working pseudo-surround-effect on my 4ch Speaker System. I narrow the stereofield on the front-speakers a bit, and widen it on the rear speakers - the result is a subtle pseudo-surround effect. - Lyx This post has been edited by Lyx: Mar 10 2004, 23:41 -------------------- I am arrogant and I can afford it because I deliver.

I've tested quite a lot. Closest to what I want comes with ...

I don't need Volume Control, since my amp is on my desk, right beside me. I don't want equalizer either. And if I did, my amp has bass and treble controls too. So... |

what is soft clipping limiter and i have a few mp3 files that clip off at the end instead of the smooth ending, does that setting have anything to do with my problem?

Soft clipping limiter prevents clipping. It just limits everything above 6db AFAIK. Very usefull if you haven't replaygained your files. Better solution is to use advanced limiter. It "looks ahead" the song and works only if it is needed. |

No. The clipping this prevents is a sort of overdriven effect having to do with bad mastering on the original CD copy (which occurs in a lot of pop music etc because the sound engineers are pushing the CD format too far in terms of decibel range). -------------------- http://www.last.fm/user/spase

Actually, no filter can fix this problem (can't recover losted information). The clipping refers to some files (like mp3s) where global gain would allow some samples when coverted to pcm (to play from sound card) to go over the maximum value it can have. |

Would you guys recommend using Resampler with an SB Audigy 2 card?

Yeah, but with kX drivers. Using resampler under Creative drivers is useless.

I don't think that is correct either. From my searching I've found these settings to be the best for Audigy2:
Output: Kernel Streaming Playback: 24bit fixed-point padded to 32bit No dithering DSP Manager: Resampler (SSRC) Volume Control Advanced Limiter From what I've read the internal resampling done by the Audigy2 cannot be disabled. The kx drivers may disable this but I am uncertain. This post has been edited by p0wder: Mar 11 2004, 06:01 |
