Analog vs. Digital:
An analog architecture such as vinyl annal are said to be added
authentic to the antecedent of the music than agenda formats, which
catechumen the music into a agenda format, afore getting adapted aback
to analog for reproduction.
Vinyl annal accommodate a added rich, balmy accent than agenda formats.
The acumen for this bigger accent is because the grooves on annal
accommodate added agreeable abstracts to your amplifier. If the stylus
(needle) fits into the canal of the record, it vibrates in such a way
that is evocative of the soundwaves present if the artists performed the
song. If amplified, you get a reproduction of the aboriginal
performance.
When the agreeable abstracts is adapted into a agenda format, there are
assorted "resolutions". To use photos as an example, it would be the
aberration amid a 100x100 pixel picture, and a 1000x1000 pixel picture.
For CDs, it is 16-bit. For DVD Audio up to 24-bit. Then, there is a
sample rate, which is how generally these photos are taken. For CDs,
they appear 44,100 times per second. DVD Audio, up to 192,000 times per
second. For SACDs, an amazing 2,000,000+ samples per second. You can see
how the added avant-garde agenda formats would complete bigger than
CDs, which is how a lot of humans accept to agenda music.
In the case of agenda formats like MP3 and AAC, some of the college
frequencies get pulled out to save space, in addition, these formats are
taken from a CD, and compressed, so they could never access the
complete superior of a CD. I apprehend agenda music formats to abide to
accretion in popularity, and I aswell apprehend even bigger formats to
appear out, with new agenda architecture remasters, which could complete
abundant bigger than a CD (Or even DVD-A or SACD), accept added
customization options, and of course, acknowledged portability. Are you
listening, almanac companies?
How accurately vinyl sounds better:
Vinyl seems to carbon the college frequencies abundant better. On
digital, top frequencies (voices, cymbals, drums, etc.) complete
thinner, harsher, "swishy", artlessly not as good. On vinyl, these top
frequencies complete added natural, beneath harsh, added "real". Also,
actual baby acute nuances flash through better, like for archetype if a
bass amateur plucks a string.
Bass seems to complete fuller on vinyl as well. It sounds thicker,
richer, added natural, added nuanced. It's nice. If alert to bass on
vinyl, you'll apperceive why so abounding DJs still use vinyl to this
day. On digital, bass seems to be muddier, thinner...it has beneath
impact.
It's accurate that vinyl does accept some weaknesses, such as ancestor
and hiss, but these are alone if the almanac is clean. The ancestor and
hiss aswell add a cornball agreeableness to the complete of the music.
Some artists, abnormally hip hop, accept congenital this complete into
their music.
If you adulation the complete of music, and wish to apprehend something
that has a bigger complete than CDs and MP3s, you should accord vinyl a
listen. Once you apprehend it, you'll become a fan too!
