    If you ever re-release another batch of Gabriel Mervine’s recording in vinyl, I will definitely purchase a copy.

    Love PS audio. Thanks for all the knowledge

    Why do records sound different? Wasn't it you Paul? That said perhaps it could be that the entire process, from the cutting to the playback of the vinyl, may round off the signal edges slightly, imparting a lusher quality to the sound.
  • @Yu-Fei-Hung
    Didn't know that existed...butbsounds reasonable since DSD is the best way to digitaly store sound.
  • Same goes for PCM digital on vinyl - for some unknown reason the vinyl often sounds better.
  • @yuriwalter385
    Though there was a short circuit at the lower right corner 😳

    Please provide DSD and PCM samples so we can hear for ourselves please!

    Will sold out CD’s and vinyl ever be available agian?
  • @carlstineman274
    When going from the DSD master to making the vinyl recording, isn't some sort of digital to analog conversion required or is there a way of driving the cutting head directly from the DSD master?
  • @glenncurry3041
    I have a theory that vinyl does a better job of post filtering. You are processing the data through a physical format. This would remove any remaining digital artifacts. They just can not exist in the then strictly analog environment.

    DSD on vinyl what a craps, It's vinyl that should be put on DSD!

    why don't you make your vinyl dbx filter 2 compatible? listen to that! why can't you print some more vinyl make sure it's on clear vinyl. depends what vinyl system you've got get a better arm and cartridge for your turntable van den hul crimson is a great cartridge, with vinyl you can eq what the record sound like by different interconnect types and lengths cartridges loading. do you know what amplifier Paul they use to cut the lacquer? that has a big bearing on things. make sure you put dbx on you're records. I think it's a technology that should be brought back with modern engineering could be drastically improved on it. you should have put it in your phono stage, with modern engineering and processes I think that's the problem the processor! I have inproved on my machine but I think the processor let's it down! you're the person Paul !! could revamp and dramatically improve on it what about it give it a go! make sure it's backward compatible as well as forward compatible if you need to do some changes in the recording processing? theoretically you could read dsd directly off the record. so you could have dbx-dsd decoder! with the dynamic Headroom of 120db mabey higher. don't forget that could be used on analogue type as well at the 40db increase Headroom, I would consider it Paul only if you know something I don't? maybe selling the chip separately for old machines that would have the DSD dbx decoder in it. as well as putting in your devices and selling a separate unit. I think record companies would adopt the idea if it's free and there's a device that can decoder it and improved on it. you were looking for a way to use dsd direct there's your opportunity!! I believe you should be able to put the dsd direct without converting it to pcm if you have you got the decoder and the code. it's not just for vinyl but tape and sacd as well if direct out I believe, and streaming. so it's not just a dbx for vinyl there's plenty of other uses for it, and making digital files from vinyl would be much better as well anyway happy Christmas New year.
