Tonight I'm recording 5 violins made by Guadagnini (about 1 M Euro
each), for a listening test about the violins. Could provide some
interesting test material for an encoding ABX test...
Lucky you.. :-)
To make this clear, I don't get 1 M Euro for each one I record...
:-( It's just the insurance value of the instruments.
BTW, 'gaudagnini' means 'little gains' or 'little profits' :-)
I'll try to get permission to make some of this available
for mp3/ogg testing.
Ciao,
If you go through with this, a good place to get additional listening
testers might be
http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/. Yes, it's one of
those ugly web forums, but there's a reasonable amount of people who
have done this kind of listening tests before.
Regards,
Philipp
