“What I did was work hard to save the art field I was in for the past 50 years,†Neil Young said to Wired magazine. "We live in the digital age, but unfortunately, music has not regressed in this era but has regressed."
Jobs, the giant who brought great changes to MP3 products with his iPod series, is also an enthusiast and often listens to his vinyl records at home. MP3 used to be considered a compromise product for loading smaller files and listening quality.
The irony of the good past is that the music we listened to when we grew up and the way we listened were much better than they are now – the sound quality we heard at that time was much better than the current universal way, whether it was from CD The captured MP3 is still purchased from iTunes or Amazon. When digital technology became mainstream and replaced analog recording technology and physical record consumption, the quality of music slowly declined. For example, an MP3, whether it is a CD crawl or download, or a sampling rate of 192 kbps, only maintains the vinyl record recorded by the tape master in the analog studio. %The data.

You may not notice this difference by listening to songs on the street through ordinary sound quality headphones, but when listening to the same song, the comparison with the CD is likely to make you find that your MP3 is really not good.
Most modern music has enhanced the low-frequency volume, with "subwoofer" and "subwoofer" as the trend or selling point, but it has got a boring intermediate frequency. Also lost a lot of dynamic performance in high-quality formats, especially the analog texture is even more nowhere to be found.
Turning to the boring IF years ago I had a large collection of vinyl records, but I don't know why, I have been trying to replace them with CDs and digital downloads over the years. In the past, I was able to hear the vocal vocals in front of a certain chorus part of Judybats, but now it has ceased to exist, and the intermediate frequency has become turbid. The 320kbps sound quality song captured from the CD lost its original dynamics and was attenuated by compression.
Record player
The song with a sampling rate of 320 kbps is supposed to be indistinguishable from the CD in human hearing. At least for most people, including me, this should be the case, but with the continuous advancement of technology, the effects of photos and videos have reached the level of "diamond", but the quality of music has gone downhill. Especially the beginning of this development process from analog recording to digital format.
What is analog recording technology? In short, it is the artist's work recorded in an 8- or 16-track tape in the studio. The recording of a song is continuous, the sound is continuous and will not be broken. Conversely, a CD is a sound sampled from an analog or digital tape recording. In theory, the amount of information it can capture exceeds the range that the human ear can distinguish.
First try Steely Dan in digital format
Interestingly, at least for me, the first band I know of turning to the new digital format is Steely Dan, who has a very good record quality and is said to be the best commercial model of the time. They recommend and sell this new format to potential buyers, and tell them that playing CDs will not have pops, currents or other noises that are common to vinyl, and claim that CDs are not as easy to lose as vinyl after multiple plays. Exhaustion, or the CD is almost never damaged, scratching and fast-forward will not cause damage. Ok, we all know that this is a lie, and there are already CDs that I don’t know how many damages have been re-polished.
Steely Dan
But troubles and controversies have emerged immediately, and CDs do have audible and different voices. Some say that the sound is colder, just like drifting in the air without direction. I don't remember what my first CD was, but the difference in sound is still fresh in my memory. They all sound too clear and lack the warmth of analog recordings.
Now you should think of stereo technology that was used in music performances and recordings at the time. Some of the important components include amplifiers/speakers (speakers), and if you ask about the quality of my speakers, give it It's not the most important part of the speaker to provide enough power to boost the volume. We need more than just the volume. It should be faithful to the high frequency and low frequency, and the crucial intermediate frequency.
Mono or dual channel?
In the mid-1960s, stereo technology itself was a controversial topic. Many people don't know that The Beatles' recordings are mono, they stack layers of sound into the same track. Believe it or not, Sgt, Pepper is the first mono recording song, but since then everyone has stereo speakers, everyone expects the sound of dual track recording.
Sgt, ​​Pepper
Their producer George Martin and the talented sound engineer Geoff Emerick (15 years old when he co-operated with The Beatles in 1962), in order to cater to the stereo requirements of the label, but extremely reluctant, so they simply The vocal and rhythm guitars are placed in one channel, while the bass, drums and lead guitars are placed in another channel. You can clearly hear these changes from your headphones or earbuds. Even today, with the sound of the left-speaking George's lead guitar rushing over and hearing the songs of John and Paul in the right channel, it is still a shocking thing.
Most of today's stereo systems are integrated into the TV 6.1 surround sound system, and most people do not use the speakers to listen to songs. Instead, they use the computer to download songs from the online music library, and the mobile phone listening to songs has become the choice of many people. . But now the song is still not recorded for the surround sound system of the cinema effect, it is still based on stereo, so another "sound" has been destroyed.
As far as I am concerned, nothing is better than listening to BOSE ceiling boxes or bookshelf boxes under high-end CD players that are connected to high-power amplifiers.
Closer to rock
When it comes to private listening, I like to use Sony's Walkman series MP3 with a good set of headphones. I think their digital signal processor is much better than the iPod. There are now enough high-end headphones available on the market, and the minimum required to achieve a satisfactory listening result costs about 70 knives. The competition in the headset market is fierce, and I think Sennheiser is the most competitive brand now, with good price/performance and sound quality. And I turned most of my CD into an MP3 file with an average bit rate of 256kbps, which is enough for everyday rock and roll listening.
There are other high-quality formats, such as the PCM format used to record CDs, which have a bit rate of 11411 kbps. There is also AAC, also known as the MPEG-4 format, with a code rate of 256kbps and being used by iTunes as a standard format for digital downloads, as well as YouTube's cloud music format. WMA, or Windows Media Audio, is also very popular. The last thing to mention is FLAC, an open source lossless format that can be played by almost all players and systems that are widely used, except for Apple.
Lossless refers to compressing the CD up to 60% but keeping the data intact, while the loss is higher, so the extracted data is limited. Both lossless and lossy compression techniques are used in most popular formats today.
These things can be said above, and there is an endless debate between fans, musicians, labels and distributors.
Another factor that changes playback comes from the increasing trend of sound compression in the recording process by record producers and sound engineers: the emphasis on heavy bass, bright high frequencies and absolute volume. They recorded the sound more "big", but there was really no new difference. At the beginning of the birth, the sound engineer wanted to do his best to get a unique voice, but many people's "craftsmanship" can not reach such height. Many past vinyl records are far superior to the average of today's CDs.
Return to "Zhongzheng"
Let us return to Neil Young and his discussion of the current music reform movement. Neil Young has been looking for money to produce a new format file and portable player (below) that provides sound quality close to the studio, up to 30 times the 256kbps MP3 player, and even more than the CD. And this is called the Ponos system, the meaning of justice in Hawaiian. His Kickstarter project was the most successful in history, raising $62 million on the first day alone. Neil Young also served as CEO of the new company, who developed the strangely-looking player (the price is still undetermined, but it is expected to be around $700), and there is also a dedicated online music library that sells for up to $25. Album.
Kickstarter
Will they succeed? Ask yourself, are you desperate for the current music quality so that you are willing to spend $700 to buy such a portable player that offers a new patent format? Do you know that you are numb in the backward format? Have you tried the song for so long? Have you tried the taste of vinyl or analog recording?
My answer is that in the past. It’s like Beats sold his most expensive headsets for more than $600 and became a fashion label outside of the enthusiast configuration. This is feasible and successful. In fact, there is almost no reason to show that Neil Young will fail, except for the fact that he Not a popular hip-hop superstar like Dr.Dre. In other words, he can do it in the past, but who is listening to Neil Young from a young age (perhaps he has been listening for 50 years) will pay attention to the fashion world? Of course, the words can't be so absolute. His Kickstarter project has indeed achieved great success, so obviously there are still many people looking forward to the final product he can make.
However, I guess that Ponos will become the next Microsoft Zune. You still don't know what Zune is? Go ask Baidu. The high profile, strange shape, and high sound quality all indicate that this is a huge "crisis public relations" and intends to gain praise for various technologies. Let's throw everything in the hole into the hole. (Translator's Note: The memory hole originally appeared in the novel "1984", is a way to recycle the "incorrect" history of the past, the things thrown in will be completely burned, the new "correct history" will be rewritten, thus Revolutionizing the history of the past, the translator here speculates that Pono may bring a new historical revolution.
Mobile phones are always dominant <br> If you have read this, then you are very interested in this stuff. But in fact, mobile phones are still the most important personal listening devices. It's almost a hand, and it has no more storage space, and cloud services allow you to download tens of thousands of songs anytime, anywhere, as long as you can access the network, such as Pandora, Spotify, etc. It can fully meet your daily listening needs.
