Just Stop! - Posting Audio Clips on YouTube
Does anyone else believe it is a very poor use of bandwidth for someone to try and show the quality of the sound produced by their $100k system on YouTube? Playing an expensive speaker or component on video that then feeds into a microphone and is combined with the video and then posted to YouTube then plays through my tv speakers, soundbar, etc... Eve stranger is when they use this delivery method to A/B components.
Very true. Anyone can get experienced ears by listening his familiar system sound and it’s recording even if it’s small cellphone mic. All mics sound similar. Alex |
I don't know how much HRTF applies to the videos because I know that at least in my case, the mics on the Nikon I use are on the front of the camera next to each other. OTOH, my ears are to the sides of my head and there is a big "orb" between them. Still, at least you know that you are hearing the room, even though this is also skewed by the mic placement. |
@rvpiano is just as absurd as saying because my system is better than yours then you cannot use your system to convey sound quality information. Even a table top radio conveys some information on the recording’s sound qualities. |
