Stick with the pertaters, Don - or you'll get Arny bitching about "red herrings" :-) (How TF does he manage to turn a thread about 'digital volume controls' into a discussion about *fish*??

No, Alzheimers is definitely *bad* for the brain.... Right, here you are then: A while back you asked for a recording from the driver level and the horn mouth on the Pinkies - not easy as the horn mouth is on the rear, but the new Faure horns exit at the front. So, with the mic positioned thusly: http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/show/driverposition.JPG http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/show/hornposition.JPG I made the following (horrendous) recordings - 'normal', 'driver' and 'horn': http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/show/Normal.mp3 http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/show/Driver.mp3 http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/show/Horn.mp3 I know the level is too high on the 'close up' recordings. I know they clip. I know they are lopsided, due to removing considerable DC Offset after they were recorded clipping*!! I know all the bad ****.... (These extracts are for an *idea* - I ain't after Plowie's job...!! ;-) (Not for fishmongers neither....!! ;-) Yes, the speakers are raw and yes, they need hoovering out already - I see the sawdust is starting to get through!! :-) Enjoy. Comment. Breathe slow. Appreciate life for the *wonderful* gift it is.... ;-) |

Not to be pedantic about this, but I'm from Montrose, and an Arbroath smokie is *not* a kipper. Kippers are herrings, an Arbroath smokie is a haddock. To rotate back to a musical theme, essentially the same as Peggy Lee called a 'fine Finnan Haddie', which hails originally from Findon, further up the coast. Was that a haddock? Bugger me - I've spent the last twenty years in a state of confusion over me fish (and me a Faroe man and all!). Oh well - so where do they make kippers, then?

Illusions are fun, but that's about it for them. 'Veridical perception' - oxymoron. Wrong. Google finds upwards of 100,000 references to this phrase. Wrong. different. 15,300 actually..... The myth here is that Google results are unchanging. The current number is "about 14,300". YMMV. However, 10,000 or 100,000 aren't signfiicantly different in this context. It's all "lots". BTW thanks for distracting the discussion on a trivial point - that's known as the proverbial "red herring" argument. I knew you couldn't do any better than that - like try to stay relevant. I think you were trying to point out to us all that your preferred rationale was near-ubiquitous. It's not a rationale, its a reasonably common word phrase, given that it is highly specific to the study of perception. My point that a google search showed that 1) it's relatively minor, and 2) context is important (IOW many of those references could be critical). Pardon me, but if that was truely your point, why did it take so much prodding to get it out of you? So I at least was trying to get to the bottom of the basis of your argument, rather than the outputs you generate. No, you were trying to respond to a serious discussion with redicule. End of discussion, on the grounds that casting pearls before swine is generally not wise. |
