The question is why would you need more then 192kHz/24bit or even 48kHz/24bit?

I had a lengthy thread about this.

Don't think about them. They will have no power over you. Different roads, but the same destination: Happy Raccoon City :puf_smile: I never have any problems with mods. Except that they ban me occassionally :D I don't know what I can or can't say anymore, or where to post. : S People in the past se...

One's too many and a thousand is never enough.

3 is ideal.

That, or avoiding the "REDACTED BY MODS" and its "REDACTED BY MODS". Don't think about them. They will have no power over you. Different roads, but the same destination: Happy Raccoon City :puf_smile: Well, they do if we interact with them. And sometimes you realise by the time it's too late.

About time I practice not giving a shit ~ just... I took a dump a few minutes ago. : S Doesn't go from one moment to another, does it! Especially when you gotta go!

People shared their wisdom with me throughout my life, and I'm starting to understand them: - The stronger dog "breeds" (altered Hungarian saying) - Say the truth, and your head gets broken in - If you can say something clever, be silent! Because you will be laughed off - You and what army? To peopl...

Agree with the first part of that But when it comes to "use your ears", isn't the issue that a track might have some low-end content that you *can't* hear when you solo the track? But then if you end up with 20 tracks with the same sort of redundant low-end content, it starts to sound muddy in the ...

Who moved the topic to The Kitchen? It is a discussion, with teaching and learning. If you wish, we could have altered the title, cleaned up the comments, etc. Otherwise, you abuse your position, without discussing how you act, or at least notifying me about it. Secondly, people, if my words are bul...

Ah, okay, I see the thread turned into a troll-fest.

No wonder some great people left this forum.

"The problem? Many people see the clickbait. They don't watch the video, but still "learn" from the clickbait, and will think as if HPF-ing a mix would be bad. Why didn't I add context? Cause when I did, people had sympathy for the devil. And I don't like advertising clickbait crap." And behold! Ev...

I highpass everything at 2KHz just to be on the safe side. And I sidechain everything too. :lol: You better low-pass at 2KHz at the same time, just to be on the safe side :puf_bigsmile: See, I knew there will be sympathy for the devil. I learned a little about marketing, and psychology in this thre...

Not everyone thinks you're being sarcastic! Some may take you seriously!

if it's not for bass, I cut off anything below 160 hz really hard, and I'm starting to get confused about this , do or doesnt it introduce artifacts to be more precise, I know the clickbait video and I even know why that was made, as there was an video earlier about this problem that he tries to de...

But mind that different HPF settings absolutely can cause problems on bass f...

Thus, it rather sounds like that an HPF will magically damage the sound in all cases.

The video actually makes the counter argument to that.

The clickbait itself just says essentially, HPF is crap.

That´s not necessarily true because when using HPF on individual channels, these are usually set to specifically suit a channel. If we are talking cleaning up a mix, HPF is quite essential and you wouldn´t really hear any low end shizzle that´s creating energy/level anyway. Putting a high-pass filt...

I think I gave a pretty straight forward example regarding a full mix, not mix channels. Putting a high-pass filter on a whole mix is the same as putting one on each mix channel. You are high-passing everything. As I said, I would never do that. If there is a DC-signal anywhere in your circuits, yo...

I hope there will be some AI developed that can effectively no-pass-filter ; ) clickbait crap. OT, but this might be of interest for you: https://dearrow.ajay.app/ (The "AI" there is actually made up of multiple NIs ;) ) Lots of responses today, let's start one by one.

For full context. You decide. If you click and play. Nothing evil in the end imho. "The problem? Many people see the clickbait.

This, and it's something I've definitely never heard before.

Please, have a mouth full of water (but away from electronics, or expensive equipment). ; )

High-passing stuff can be useful and not a problem. Not high-passing stuff can equally be useful and not a problem. Using high-pass filters doesn't have to ruin your mix, but it definitely can ruin your mix if used the wrong way. It can surely take the life out of your mix. Saying that high-pass fi...

OK thanks for sharing. Context: A youtube clickbait video popped up, subtly suggesting the opposite of what I "reacted" here to it. Granted, I didn't click, and I bet it also talks about what I do here, hence clickbait. The problem? Many people see the clickbait. They don't watch the video, but sti...

High Pass Filters on mixes are used for removing low frequency rumble - if needed.

A 24 dB/Octave HPF at 20 Hz, or a 12 at 30 Hz, IIR/analog-style/zero-latency type, is more than enough, and won't cause any audible ringing. You won't ever hear any "phase issues".

If headphone amp was all you needed, then the L30 II might have been a wiser choice.
