- This sounds rather odd to me, I've worked in some of the better
- recording studio's out there, built guitars at Paul Reed Smith, and spent
- four years at the Berklee College of music studying music tech, and no one
- there has ever suggested this. As for your blindfold challenge, I'd take you
- on any day. Part of our training there was to listen to white noise, they'd
- ajust the eq by 3-6db's and we'd have to write down which frequency was
- altered and by how much. I can pin the difference between digital and analog
- in a second. If someone suggested I master on there Hi-fi channel, I'd lock
- them out of my studio...
- I suggest you post this idea on some pro-audio groups and enjoy the
- mail that comes in....
