Subject: Re: [ARSCLIST] current role of soundcards
An informal, unofficial notice:
Earlier this year, the National Recording Preservation Board
commissioned a set of white papers relating to digital-related topics
in sound preservation. The very first of these papers to be
"published" was placed on the web this very morning. It is
"Measurement and Evaluation of Analog-to-Digital Converters Used in
the Long-Term Preservation of Audio Recordings" by Ken Pohlmann.
A formal announcement of this publication will come from LC in the
next few days but given today's thread, why wait? It's a wonderful
work.
Sam
