I recently did a sweep test and I can easily hear past 20k (I don't have to turn up the volume or anything). But I had a hard time telling ff123's mustange clips Original from 15kHz cutoff.
I then encoded a some music at --lowpass 16 and could distinguish no loss of frequency. Does anyone have a clip where the difference is blindly obvious to them. Lowpassing at 16 saves a lot of bits and if I can't tell the difference, why waste them? Perhaps my material does not make it obvious enough. Peter |

Think twice about the Santa Cruz. The drivers are the most unstable I've ever seen for a sound card... sound quality is good, but the drivers need work IMHO. The 'control panel' will crash Windows if you change settings while sound is playing. I just installed mine about 30 minutes ago. I'm running Windows XP, using the 4142 build drivers, dated Jan. 10 2002, WHQL certified (from the Turtle Beach website). No crashes yet! (although for some reason, the pressed CD that came with the card would read _very_ slowly on my newly purchased Pioneer DVD-116, making it unusable). I fiddled with all of the control panel settings, and Windows had no problems. It sounds different from the SB Live I had in there before... Is it better? Hard to say, it could just be louder/different EQ, but I'm enjoying it, and most importantly, resizing windows doesn't cause it to skip! I'm going to test it myself sometime next week, but maybe someone already knows the answer to this: does the Santa Cruz have the same high-frequency aliasing problems as the SB Live when resampling 44.1khz audio? |
