In Reply to: Vinyl somehow allows the good to stay posted by hifitommy on December 4, 2024 at 13:41:59:
I am of the opinion that vinyl adds nice things. I am also of the opinion that our hearing isn't as 'good' as we think it is and well applied compression is what makes 'dynamics'. Vinyl compresses nicely but digital just gets louder and louder until it breaks (unless compression is added in the mastering). Hence, my point that people just assume vinyl is correct and digital deficient whereby it is likely the other way around but we like it that way. Now, I could be wrong (!) but this is simplest explanation, hence my reference to Occam's razor.
A digitally recorded LP is the perfect example, the vinyl mastering and playback adds something to make it preferable to the original digital master. And, if you've ever made needle-drops you will know how close they sound to the LP. Digitizing captures accurately all the goodness added by the vinyl process.
