i was comparing the qobuz version of Dirt by Alice in Chains with my vinyl pressing (both 2022 remasters) and i noticed that the digital version is a little too bright and it felt more compressed (drums in vinyl are more punchy). I am curious about why, especially about why the qobuz version sounds brighter.thanks

    I dont know where your getting sarcasm… try to picture a waveform that’s connected directly to the analog source; perfect example is a seismagraph as it is the same technology… that is a waveform connected directly to the source of the energy in this case the rumblings of the earth. There is enough mathematical data within those waveforms to develop the Fast Fourier Transfer algorithm which is responsible for basically all computational process that happen today.

    Do you think if you replaced the smooth waveform data with jagged microscopic 90 degree angles ie (samples) the Fast Fourier transform would still work?
