Naughty but nice, Iain!
Can we pse now have the original track in toto?
Sounds like it's wrinkly Stanley Baxter!

Hmm. Tough challenge, Keith.

To keep this event at a high cultural level,
I offer a beautiful traditional Scottish ballad,
with tasteful virtuoso harpsichord continuo.

I have shortened it considerably.

Hello Jim,
I was going to keep the artist's identity and the
story behind this "milestone in recording history"
a secret at this stage, but it is not Stanley B.

Regards
Iain

Surely, Don, one "owns up" to a misdemeanor,
and "lays claim" to a work of art:-))

You must have superior aural perception, Don. I
could find no such artifact on the track I submitted:-))

Cheers!

Eat just about *anything* these days, I find...... :-)



But that's not important right now - what I would like to know is which of
the 28/29 second samples sounds the best and the next best (ie top
*two*)..??

Not easy and I've tried my hand at 'normalising' them to -16 dB...???

This bit isn't easy either. A like best A and D, although they are the
most different from each other. A has a bit more bite, but I like the
smoothness of D as well. B and C are a little bland. I know that
doesn't make a lot of sense, but what the heck?

The other strange thing is the phase. A & B are one way up, while C &
D are inverted. Can you check the cart wirings?

Can I have another shot, with " The Sex Pistols sing Excerpts
from Tristan and Isolde" ? :-))
