I do have a clue about deckadance. In fact i have used it once for a gig, it crashed. I moved back to CD's and Vinyl.
"transcoding mp3 to mp3" ..wtf. lawl :u:
Deckadance doesnt transcode to mp3, Only WAV when recording sections of a song .
So you think that by making an .mp3 into .wav increases its quality??? Your stupider than you sound.

I don't think i'm getting you here, but unless you own the actual video you're going to be downloading it from a different site, or using a programme to record the audio. It might say on that site that it's recording in '320' but it wont be because the origional video is less quality. You can't record a lesser rate as '320' and it magically improves in sound quality.

Also, i like how you play the 'you're not backing anything up', but then ignore points that totally destroy your argument like my point on soft synths being able to create drum sounds, and therefore not samples.
notice i mentioned "808 analog, 909 digital) . Theres no point in talking about that. the video comes straight from youtube. "HQ" is catergorized as audio/video with 192 kpbs and up , standard download is rated at 128 kbps and up. I dont even know why im explaining this. Marshy your balls havent even dropped yet kiddo. you dont know what youre googleing/talking about with this one.

"woooo i know how electronic kicks are made" lol. old news. Now if you can tell me how EXACTLY a 808/909 kick is made, in process. then youll have something to stand on. simply knowing what is required means nothing.

Depone. Im not going to explain my processing techniques. Its been done long before I even started making electronic music. If you dont already know how its done, then i have nothing to say to you.

Moxxiedubstep wrote:Depone now i know youre an idiot lol. so um, when you go to master a track, do you export is as a wav? or just say fahk it ill go with a wma or mp3 first?

And video from youtube.....COME IN WMA OR FLV ONLY. which most are 256 kpbs - 320 kpbs . why would i go out of my way to download a poor sounding version of a song? out of all the videos you choose the song I made when i first started making dubstep . LOOOOOOL . smfh . anything to try and make you point.

so what youre saying ,Depone, is that WAV files cant have the same bit depth as an Mp3/wma file? ... do you know what bit depth and bit rate even mean.... and how its factored by Hz ???? Just answer, no reason to been anymore of an ass on your part for this one
Depone now i know youre an idiot lol
Mate im not stupid.
I have a diploma at a distinction level in music technology and in my 2nd year of my degree in music technology specialist.
I also work part time in a fully functioning commercial music studio.

Do you really think i dont know what is what in the digital audio realm?, your soooooo deluded. Get a grip on reality.

Im not going to humor you with the right answer because i dont have time for flakes like you. All the best in the future, but seriously again... get a grip

HOW TO MAKE THE MOXXIE KICK SOUND

1. Take one girlyboy looking tnuc and smash him in the face so hard you knock him even more delirious than he proves to be.

2. put him in the position on his knees he's so used to being in whilst sucking cock.

3. Set up D112 microphone off axis to Moxxie's face, plug into preamp/desk/interface of choice and press record on chosen DAW.

4. Kick Moxxie in the face so fucking hard that all the shit he's had stabled into it comes flying out and taps on the wall, causing a refreshing 'ping' sound to your kick sound.

Because an MP3 is compressed audio format which significantly introduces levels of distortion specifically in the highest and lowest frequencies of the track.

As previously stated, we're not stupid.

Pointless. LOL. I bet you had a tough childhood.

There's a difference between sounding the same, and quality.

And this effects bit depth and rate how? Sure you can get on the right track, but then again youre not Depone.

Urm, thats not what i said. I have never trolled in my life, this is an argument between educated minds and an absolute delusional idiot.

and as i said, i dont need to explain. I know precisely about bit rate and bit depth. Do you think this is the peak of my knowledge?
Do you think i cant differentiate between lossy and lossless digital audio files?

Ok try this, Explain how dithering and noise shaping works and effects audio. Do you know advanced reverb time constants and room modes???
Thought not. And if you reply, im going to do a google check for wikipedia quotes.

LOL BY REDUCING THEM CAUSING A LOWER FILE SIZE SUITABLE FOR SMALLER CAPACITY PORTABLE MP3 PLAYERS.

Ffs, the funny thing is, noobs require less spelling of things out than you do and you've been producing a WHOLE THREE MONTHS :lol:

Depone easily knows more than me on this stuff anyway loool

Exactly, so wav holds a wider spectrum, problem with wav is the size. AIFF is the same in a way

So WAV's 'hold a wider spectrum' but are the same quality as mp3's?

Epic photo up there btw.
