[linux-audio-user] ... like an old vinyl

[Reuben Martin]

Granted, that is harsh. But then again you have to consider that the person listening to it may not know that you are trying to make it sound like old vinyl. Unless you make it particularlly obvious that you actually want it to sound like old vinyl the listener may just think you did a crappy recording job.
 
Personally I've used this meathond and the less of a rolloff on either end and the less mix from the fuzz from the record the newer it will sound and vice versa. It's ultimately up to you though how you want it to sound.

	That's pretty harsh.
	Recent vinyl records actually have a pretty good frequency response.

	It's actually the dust motes that contribute the most to the "vinyl
	feel". It should be fun to simulate that, actually.
	Should be like... lemme see... white noise shot through narrow and tall
	envelopes. Pretty much like the attack phase of the piano sound, except
	that the parameters are different (hence it sounds more like "plastic"
	than "metal").
