Re: Spotting Lossy Sources--links inside
AS mentioned in another thread, it is possible to fool all of you by using harmonic synthesis to restore the missing high end. I've tried this, showed it to one of my MQR labelmates who is skilled at reading spectrals, and he couldn't tell the difference. Neither could TLH (CDDA 100%). Add tape noise like the Zappateers do? Amateurs. Just restore the high end with harmonic synthesis and no one will be the wiser.
This is all hypothetical. I'd never do that and circulate it. Just making a point that there's no foolproof way to tell the difference.

Re: Spotting Lossy Sources--links inside
Another neat program for spectral analysis is Sonic Visualiser.
http://www.sonicvisualiser.org/ It's free and open source. With some tweaking its built-in spectrogram functionality is almost as good as that of CoolEdit Pro / Audition, even though it is not quite as customizable (color presets not editable, no dynamic range adjustment, no gamma adjustment) The program is extensible through plugins, though I haven't tested any of those. Yet. <insert maniacal laughter here> I've attached a Session Template to this post with settings I find to be suitable for source analysis. Extract it to %userprofile%\.Sonic Visualiser\templates and load it via File->Apply Session Template->Waveform and per-channel Spectrograms No members have liked this post.
