Re: Question about using Trader's Little Helper to Spot Lossy

Additionally, I meant that any software tends to do better proving lossless than lossy. If it says it's lossless, usually it's right. But far too many factors can produce a "lossy" designation when the recording in question is not in fact lossy.

Re: Question about using Trader's Little Helper to Spot Lossy

The problem with this whole process is that it can all be fooled. Taking a lossy source and using harmonic synthesis to restore the high end will certainly fool TLH (I've tried it), and will also make spectral look lossless. I tried this approach and sent the spectral to one of my MQR label mates who is skilled at reading spectral views, and he couldn't tell it was an mp3 to begin with.
