Basically the groove of a vinyl record is like a drawing of the sound wave in a single continuous line through the entire side.
What s the point of vinyl.
My understanding is that a vinyl holds sound without any compression originally directly converting sound to a physical form.
They keep me from skipping tracks and flashing from album to album and artist to artist in a hectic improvised mix tape kind of way.
I want a format that makes me handle the songs clean the media flip the disc and so forth.
Albums make me focus more on the music.
Once its stored on a computer no matter what it is a digital signal and the process can not be completely undone.
Your turntable essentially reads that and decodes it in real time.
Back around 1990 when i decided records sounded better than my cd s it was a different story.
Live piano is better than digital computerised piano no.
Go to the next corner and pull the line taut.
Or if you are one who buys vinyl because you believe it sounds better keep doing it and let your opinion be known.
Put simply vinyl is analog it can t be converted to digital and is widely considered a more authentic sound.
I want the liner notes.
Make sure the line is level by using a line level or a 4 1 2m level.
So really the only point of vinyl less compression which itself is a forced result of vinyls limitations.
Sure vinyl is inferior in a lot of ways.
At the additional cost of high amounts of noise and distortion compared to modern dacs more inconvience cost and vinyl s finite lifespan is there any other point to vinyl.
From that point measure up 1 4 6 4mm less than the width of the starter strip and partially drive a nail at one corner.
I like having big cover art i like having a physical copy of music.
Even then less compression doesnt guaranteed better sound.
They have the technology to do this today and just need a nudge from us to do so.
Vinyl roof refers to a vinyl covering for an automobile s top.
I see no point in cutting digital files to vinyl anymore provided the mastering is good on both.
A lot of the music i like has always come out on vinyl even when vinyl wasn t that popular.
At some point companies will respond by offering better digital products intended to compete with the vinyl market.
Back then even digital recordings sounded better on vinyl to me.
I like that an album in that format is still a complete package especially when written for the format everything from the order of the tracks to the cover art to the center labels.
