there was a 24bit 96khz MCIS uploaded at one point because I have it...

and there's discussion of it's legitimacy in the replies
Quote:
It seems to me that there is no possible way for an entire 24-bit MCIS vinyl transfer to be only 2.51 GB in size.

Seamonkey bagged an 8 GB bounty for upping it. Could someone run the files through the audio authenticity detector add-on for foobar? foobar2000 3rd party components
That should give you the proof that the admins require to have the torrent removed.

Edit: I tested a few of the files and they do seem to be legit.

I have no idea why it was removed.
2.51GB for 2 hours of 24/96 is right.
and the files are full frequency according to my spectrum views...
actually the folder I have is 2.61GB
the rip is noisy and clicky

I have a 24-96 capable sound card (motu 896)
and I have the vinyl
but no record player...
i had my vinyl ripped at 16/44 way back
but it's also noisy and clicky.


I will take a gander to the removal
it was a rip of a bootleg vinyl
not an original.


the vinyl I have was purchased in 2000, un numbered, but with a white box.
is that conisidered an "original" and worth ripping up to what.
I could use a bounty right now.
yet 8gb won't help my * Up: 398.16 GB * Down: 617.70 GB * Ratio: 0.64
30gb up only got me from .62 to .64

in the rip i have, there's artwork, and the vinyl jacket also has the white box.
on black vinyl.
so it's not one of the cheap boots that recently surfaced

i've gotten that. and it sounds great !!!!! it ended up getting uplaoded, right here on netphoria.
best version of machina around.

I will take the time to rip MCIS if it's needed,
but I need to know why the current 2496 rip was taken down/refused/rejected from the what overloards.
I don't want to repeat those mistakes.

of the 2496 rips that I have, albums (60 mins) usually run at 1-1.2GB
Gish - 932 MB
SD - 1.15 GB
Adore - 1.5 GB because it's 80mins
year zero - 1.6GB
with teeth - 1.3 GB
fragile - 1.9 GB


2.6 GB for 120 mins seems completely correct.
I'm talking FLAC file comperssion....


I have NIN Ghosts ripped at 2496, and it's only 847MB, but that's because it's actually just 16bit upsampled to 24bit... and those extra 8 bits all got dropped in the flac compression. so that's not a proper 2496 rip, more of a 1696 rip.

Is the upload still hosted anywhere? I missed that one

As for the Mellon Collie one it sounded alright in length..I have a Machina 24bit which is what..about 80 minutes and that is 1.59gb roughly.

It was probably pulled because some fool didn't know what he was doing.

Ok. I've taken a look at why it was deleted and apparently it didn't sound good:

There was originally a huge request bounty on this (8GB+) but the vinyl rip that filled the req is awful, even after two re-rips. What everybody is after is a high quality 24-bit/96kHz transfer, not something that sounds worse than the CD. Unless you want to feel the scorn of people already burnt by the last attempt, make sure you've done a good job of it.

So no, don't use the existing rip to fill this request - we all know about it, and a lot of people with small ratios have hurt themselves on it already. I'm not concerned about wasting ratio, I just want to hear my favourite album the way it should be.
