    Real vs. Hyperreal vs. Surreal Music Recordings

    An interesting read. This is quoted from a article on soundfly. You can put all recorded music techniques and gestures into three categories: realist, hyperrealist, and surrealist. These categories have soft boundaries that broadly overlap. Nevertheless, I find them to be a useful way to...

    .wav to .flac/ .mp3 convertor

    This one is an awesome app. It's a all in one converter, music player with a sound engine, music library, playlists and has a tag editor. Plays and converts most formats.  The best of all it's free. No license fees. https://www.aimp.ru/?do=features Cheers Andre

    Artists and high end audio

    I think it is fitting to add Mr. Ken Fritz as well to this post. He might not be a famous music artist. But for building his own speakers, TT and designing his music room. He is definitely a very rare and talented artist in his own right.

    Streaming apps

    Tidal through Pioneer streamer with MConnect and BubbleUPnP Android apps. Working okay, can be slow at times when scrolling through a extensive playlist. Alternatively Tidal through Audirvana on the lappie to streamer as dac. Better and smoother operation, takes more effort to setup and...

    Tweak!

    What I pickup from this is the magnetic pulse bit. This could actually have a influence on someones health if a person is living with a pacemaker!

    Joke for the day

    Some Northern Cape humour this morning. Snapped this pic when I passed the parking area at work. The capies just have a way with naming stuff in Afrikaans! [emoji23][emoji23] Sent from my SM-A307FN using Tapatalk

    Sound deadening a car

    The bitumen product might not be on on list of choices for most users. I took a chance and got the results I wanted from it, would I do my whole vehicle with it. Heck no. Here in the Northern Cape we have very dry extreme temps in summer that I think far exceeds the Paarl. I think it was...

It really made a profound difference. Less road noise also, although I only treated the doors. Sound wise, it...

    Sound deadening a car

    I used roof waterproofing tape for my bakkie's front doors when I fitted a pair of 6x9 Kickers. Worked just as well as the expensive Dynamat and others. Only downside was it had a bit of a tar smell for a couple of weeks which eventually dissipated.  :whistler...
