Re: Lossy or lossless? Any opinions?
Hi, wonder if anyone can help determine if this is minidisc or DAT sourced?

it also depends on the sample rate of the dat. a dat with a 32kHz sample rate will appear lossy (and actually IS lossy, in a way, because 32kHz is substandard now), and i would probably not be able to tell the difference from minidisc or mp3. a dat recording at 48 kHz, however, would be perfectly lossless.

Re: Lossy or lossless? Any opinions?
Thanks, yes, this helps. This is not an exact science, but here's my 2 cents:
If I didn't know anything about this recording, I would say it has to be either lossy-sourced or crudely denoised. That's what the "lego block" pattern at the border of the colored and the black areas in the attached screenshot tells us. If you know that this is either from DAT or from MiniDisc and that it hasn't been denoised, I am 99% sure it is from MiniDisc. No members have liked this post.
