hi
i trade bootlegs and don't like receiving mp3 sourced bootlegs. Is there a sure fire way i can analyze the CD to tell if it is mp3 sourced. For instance, if i extracted one of the tracks to wav and did a frequency analysis in Cool Edit Pro 2 would that show the frequency clipping etc. Any help is appreciated. stuart |

QUOTE (robenroute @ Oct 13 2003, 08:25 PM) The 19 kHz line definitely smells like a pilot tone to me. Pilot tones are usually used for transmitting purposes.... Some background information My father (an old ham radio nut) just sent me an explanation of pretty much the same thing, so I think it was indeed recorded off radio (his reasons: only noise after ~15KHz, 19KHz stereo pilot carrier). He also said most receivers would take the signal out though, so don't know why it's still there. I feel a little better that at least it wasn't made out of radio=>mp3=>cd. But I guess there is little left to lose going to mp3 anyway, since everything above 15KHz is crap anyways. Well thank you all for the helpful replies, I certainly was not expecting them that quickly. P.S. Is it true some people can hear that tone? Looks pretty high amplitude, would it hurt their ears if they could? |
