Minor General Questions that Don't Deserve Their Own Thread

Recommended Posts

When you get to higher resolution/sample rates beyond what a CD contains, there's a lot of controversy as to whether there is any difference in perceived quality. The best information I've come across is that there might be a tiny difference, but you need an extremely expensive and customised audio set up (along with excellent ears) to be able to pick up on it. Here's a post from somebody who seems to know what they're talking about, but again, it's controversial, and possibly always going to be argued over: http://www.head-fi.org/t/415361/24bit-vs-16bit-the-myth-exploded

 

Thank you for the link, good read.

Would it be correct in assuming Old Money was written for use in The Great Gatsby?

I've always wondered since it's similar to Young & Beautiful and they were registered at the same time. I always thought it sounded like a song for the credits but they decided not to use it so she put it on UV.

 

I'm only asking because it's basically the same case for 24, right?

Where is the best place to get Lana Del Rey AKA Lizzy Grant Vinyl, I'm quite skeptical of some sites like Discog and this http://www.vinyl-digital.com/en/Pop-Various/Lana-Del-Rey-a-k-a-Lizzy-Grant-Clear-Vinyl.html

 

also a random question, When did Lana wrote Young and Beautiful and did she do it specifically for The Great Gatsby or did it exist before?

She most likely began writing it in late 2012, to be finished in 2013, and yes it was specifically written for the film.

I got it from the site you linked to and received it with no issues.

I know but from the members experience I was wondering if anyone knew a good source to get a vinyl for LDR AKA LG

Um, unless someone is able to get a hold of the masters to make a pressing, by definition there is no good source to get an AKA vinyl. I do not understand why anyone would want essentially mp3s on vinyl.

Eh, there are good reasons to be skeptical it was originally written specifically for the film.

@@evilentity in your megamix did you somehow decrease the volume of the acapella in the official versions because i can't hear any significant echoing or overlaping of the vocals expect for the obvious part where the lyrics changed?

Nope, it's just as perfect a synch as possible in Audacity. The only thing I did was reduce the volume of both the single and orchestral versions by 6 dB each so that the demo instrumentation could still be heard.

 

All of which makes perfectly obvious that the later versions use the same vocal take as the demo, but with the lines "channeling angels in the new age now" punched in. Very consistent with the idea that it may not originally have been written for The Great Gatsby and was subsequently modified to suit.
