Got the feels from it over here. Dan, best wishes for your health journey! Your videos and wisdom are always much appreciated! Take the time you need to feel better and nurture your mental health too. 🙏💪🎉
Best of luck with your new treatment! I am a professor in areas related to sound, recording and mixing. I always tell my students, "You have a friend named Dan Worrall, go watch all the videos of him. And, of course, invite him to your birthday party." I appreciate the knowledge you so generously share.
It feels like Christmas day, when I was just a kid - excited to see what Santa left under my tree - when I get a notification that there is a new Dan Worrall video
@Rhuggins pretty sure we like hearing his "let me explain this to you" voice tone more than 90% of content out there, so even a low effort elicits the maximum dopamine response ;P thanks Dan, hope you start feeling better asap!! We absolutely love you ❤
Crohn’s - yuk. Sorry to hear that, and hope the treatment works quickly. Thank you for sharing and reminding us ‘don’t wait too long to start getting investigated’. For anyone wondering, having cameras in your pooptubes is grim, but it’s only a short procedure and you can ask for full sedation (which is actually really nice) if you’re feeling anxious. Either way, it’s much better to know what’s happening than to try and ignore what you suspect is a creeping tide!!
I'm a simple person - I come home from work, I see Dan dropped a video less than an hour ago, I instantly smile and click I'm glad you're going to be getting treatment! Keep taking it easy as much as you need, Dan. Even if you never make another video for us again, here or for a developer, know that the knowledge and entertainment you've provided have been invaluable to many, and we can always come back to what you've already made. Do what you need to for yourself, that will always come first
The level of effort I'm used to from your videos made me seriously think that after you said "it would take someone a very long time to set that up", you would then say "so anyway, I did that, and here's the result". It's not like I was expecting that going into the video, but rather that you are of the calibre that I would not be surprised if you went ahead and did it to put the argument to rest. That's a testiment to your knowledge and amazing skill of educating others. Best wishes on your health. Crohn's disease is no joke, but it must be said that it has found a formidable foe.
Dude I hope your new Medication catches on and you'll be enjoying life soon again. As a fellow crohns patient, I feel your pain and can absolutely relate to everything sucking hard right now. I've been hit hard by the disease in 2019 and it took about a year for me to find the right medication. Now I'm getting an infusion about every 7 weeks and am absolutely free of any pain, inflammation or any other kind of life disturbing crap (lol). Wishing you a swift recovery!
Feel better Dan, chronic illness is no fun and unfortunate to say Im right there with ya, but doing better as of late thanks to a new medication! Im hoping you'll be joining me shortly! For a couple of years I've been watching you while I was going through some really hard times. I was using the energy and time I had spare to really learn about how to mix and everything "under the hood" thanks to some rabbit holes you sent me down! Im no where near the engineer you are, but I use a science/evidence based approach inspired by your videos in everything I do and it has yielded some really wonderful results that my local music scene has really appreciated. Im small time still but I really just wanted to take the time to thank you for what you have done for me and many others, just by simply making these videos, low effort or not. You have given an entire generation of prospective engineers and wealth of resources, knowledge, and a solid foundation for a working methodology in the studio. Greetings from the Seattle DIY Punk/Rock scene!!
Just so you know, Dan, you're a gem. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and your no-nonsense approach to the subjects you cover. It's why you've built a successful & mostly positive community. As long as you upload I will always watch. Thanks again.
Thank you, Dan. I'm one of your American followers, and I very much appreciate you nipping the universal healthcare criticism in the bud. Your comment re: years of conservative rule are a warning siren for the US, as well... I'm sure you know. I'm very sorry for your diagnosis, and also very thankful to hear that you're receiving treatment. I'm a prayer guy-- so, you are in my prayers. And I hope the best for your recovery. Thank you for all you do with your channel.
More to do with insane levels of immigration since the late 90's than any negligible difference in the 2 blairite parties. Housing market is similarly on its knees, as is most public services, and the return of Labour will do nothing to fix it
@DarthQueefious bullshit. Most of those immigrants work in the NHS, would be far worse without them. The NHS is on its knees because the Tories have been under funding it and privatising it. And you're a racist moron.
I really enjoyed Dan's videos and I wish him all the best, yet I also wish the political comments would stay out of my music videos. I'm also one of those American fans/viewers, and I have plenty of first-hand experience with the current "liberal administration." Yeah, I know it sounds crazy but I watch Dan for music and mixing advice. Politics invading every friggin thing I do is getting tiring.
I'd like to say how incredibly grateful I am for your persistence in uploading subtitles, even on a low-effort video. As someone with ADHD, I often find it difficult to focus and process a voice speaking for a long period without skipping back every thirty seconds to catch what I missed. Never had that problem with any of your videos. Thank you!
I hope the treatment works well for you Dan! Your videos are always amazing and have helped me so much at understanding how audio things work. It's absolutely amazing how well-made your content is, and even the "low-effort" content as you called it is absolutely on-point.
I rarely comment on RUclips videos, but I'll make an exception in this case. Your videos have been incredibly helpful navigating the digital audio arena so I truly hope the new treatment helps and you're able lead a somewhat normal life again. Thank you for everything, Dan!
I too am super happy with 48k; my 10-year-old iMac wouldn't manage anything higher anyway! 😂 I wish you a speedy recovery, Dan, and an even speedier return to simply feeling normal. Fingers crossed for a General Election soon, eh? Thanks for continuing to share your wisdom and knowledge; it helps so many of us. You are greatly appreciated. All the best!
Hey Dan, been listening to your Audio opinions for close to a decade. When I see your name on something, I know I'm in good hands. Thanks for your effort and expertise! Heal well & soon. Cheers
I've had a medical scare this week and ended up seeing varying parts of the NHS, including scans, A&E and others. They are indeed struggling because of Tory underfunding and mismanagement, but as you probably have experienced, all the people involved are amazing. Be well Sir. And keep the videos simple and effective like this until you feel better.
Your videos are treasure trove for audio people of all walks of life. Thank you for going the extra mile to make us all better at recording music. You will get better soon and grace the community with more nuggets of awesome. Cheers!
It may have been a low effort video, Dan, but that perfectly voiced, placed and timed "lol" was superb and I loled! Warmest wishes for your good health all the way from Tasmania. Thanks for all you do!
Just had a scoping from both ends on Friday myself (2nd since the discovery and removal of cancer abnd half the large intestine) with goodish results that will either get better or not once some further testing takes place, but likely better. You absolutely have my support in taking the breaks you need and deserve along with my greatest hopes that they get you sorted and feeling better as fast as possible. Just one more thing, thanks for helping me learn more, smile more, and experiment more through my own issues!
All the best for you Dan from a random stranger in Texas who, like so many here, I just appreciate your wealth of experience combined with a no nonsense, yet entertaining, delivery from all of your videos! Hoping you feel and get better soon.
Dan, your musings on top of your expertise and immense knowledge paired with the ability to present it makes my day again and again. I'm nerding, and I'm proud of you. My prayer is that you'll be well, and that love will surround you all your days. ❤️
Damn, Dan. This nearly brought me to tears. I can safely say you've truly changed my life with your insights and perspective. Thank you so much for everything you do and have done. Wishing you the best! You've got this.
RUclips videos in this category are full of click bait, creators that sound credible (but contradict each other), those selling mixing courses, etc. Most seem to be just click bait with information that is not practically useful, and often wrong. Those that are credible are selling course or plug-ins. I don't know why, but whenever your videos pop up I don't feel any need to validate what you say. Even other RUclipsrs reference you in their videos "If you want to see a true master of Plugin Doctor, see Dan Worral". Keep up this good work, it is a breath of knowledgeable fresh air 🙂
Dan I wish you all the best! I've been through the same, waited until everything inside was fubar and am still facing the consequences after ten years. The medical knowledge and skills available will make your life better, for sure. Take care and accept being taken care of.
A bit more wiggle room for anti aliasing filters. You could argue that 20k-24k is twice as good as 20k-22.05k, in terms of filter steepness. I'm of the opinion that we should all drop 44.1 and make 48k standard. Not going to hold my breath though. And because I have to pick one, so that's it :)
Hi Dan. We have had less then civilised conversations, but I remained subscribed because I actually find your videos very enlighting. I know a thing or two about how health issues can affect ones life in a variety of ways. I am truly sorry about your problems and wish you all the best. I hope you feel better soon.
Wish you all the best, you've continued to teach me plenty of things after I finished University, things that are practical yet I never saw anyone else teaching them. I hope your treatment goes well!
Thank you for *every* one of your videos (your "low effort" is still better than 90% of music producing videos…)! Wishing you all the best and a speedy recovery!
I always love your videos… well, it’s really audio, mini podcasts even, with a bit of cover animation…. I’m glad you finally had a diagnosis, and it’s well treatable. Take care as always, I hope you’re feeling chipper soon!
best wishes for your health, and appreciate you mentioning it! I'm in the USA and I've been waiting a month to see a specialist, insurance is really giving me the run around, which has been depressing and infuriating, but your story helps put things in perspective. That said, the NHS definitely seems to work better overall when you look at the cost angle.
All the best with your medication treatment. My cousin suffered from the same problem for 4 years. After the right treatment, he regained his quality of life. Thanks for sharing your tutorials. My sample rate has always been 48K, mainly because I also work with 24fps images (soudtracks / music), but I can notice an acoustic difference between recordings made at 44.1K and 48K samples, especially in the high frequencies spectrum. Stay safe.
Frankly I love your “low” effort videos just as much as your “high” effort videos. While they may contain fewer pieces of information and that information may be less important.. it’s still quality and usually novel to my ears. Take care Dan, I hope the medication is enough to get it in remission
Big love, Dan! Your videos are always a joy to watch because 1) You avoid the nonsense and deliver top tier practical knowledge, and 2) You are very clearly a top bloke :D Thanks for continuing to share your years of experience with everyone. Really sorry to hear about the Crohn's, those symptoms are rough! But it's great that you're now on a treatment pathway and I hope the medication makes a HUGE difference for you! And yes, f*ck the Tories... let's hope the next lot can sort out the mess!
It's really easy to be a good viewer when the content is of this quality and the creator makes a point of maintaining a high quality standard. The round of applause is also to you for fostering this kind of behaviour. Thank you so much for all you've taught me and I hope you get to deal with your health condition in the best way possible and that we get the tories out when we get a chance!
Probably more to do with the NHS being staffed by tiktok dancers than the Tories being in power mate, considering the tories are in and you are now getting great care as you say. The NHS hasn't recovered since c19.
My issue is with the wait, not the quality of care. Waiting lists were already soaring well before COVID. I think maybe hundreds of millions spent on fraudulent VIP lane PPE might be more salient than a few tiktok videos, no? Btw: extremely offensive comment to make to someone whose partner works for the NHS. She, and her colleagues, risked their lives during the pandemic, for ungrateful Tory bastards like you.
@@DanWorrallMy mother worked for the NHS as a mental health nurse. Lol. She agree's. I am not a tory. Why do you keep accusing me of being one whenever I comment? That is offensive bud, making assumptions about people. The NHS has more money than it ever has and still manages to misuse it. It is just a fact of the matter to anyone who does any serious reading about it. I am not going to lower to your level and keep this going like last time. Good grief. EDIT: And you cannot blame the tories because you had to wait. They do not personally run the hospitals / GP's. They have upper management for that. Many of them cream off the top. Direct your anger at them, not me. I too have had to wait, and most stuff gets done over the phone now. That is the doctors doing that though, not Rishi Sunak - who I cannot stand by the way. Oh and btw: I didn't have the jab, not because I am anti-vax either before you start. My life was NEVER at risk.
I will tell you a short sort of... story, if you even care to read it. At university years back doing Computer Science, a project of ours was to try and automate aspects of the NHS so doctors didn't have to see patients in person for many aspects of their care. This I saw as a disaster and I made that clear at the time but still had to do the assignment obviously. And it was well before c19. So this has been on the cards for awhile mate. Sorry to have to say it. It will get worse too, no matter which party is at the helm. Other than that I will leave you with this, good luck with the new medication and I hope you get well soon.
@@DanWorrall I sound like a tory? How so? No I mean over all the years. Before they were doing it labour were and then before them tories were again. Rofl. Anyway I agree that it was a total waste of money, but labour would have done the same too. What you have to remember is there is no point being tribal about party support. Everyone in that parliament is p**sing in the same pot. The winners are always them, the losers are always us, and nothing that either side wants actually ever gets implemented unless the majority say so. Which they don't. As we see time and time again. But people have short memories it seems.
Socialism does work. I got immediate treatment under a (centre) left wing government. Had to wait a year under a right wing government. Spot the difference?
Hey Dan, thank you for everything. Even tho i don't always understand your videos, i do understand that you share valuable knowledge and wisdom. I also have been diagnosed with Crohn disease but i am in a pretty good state since more than 10 years. Just to share with you that there is hope for long lasting recovery. I wish you the very best
You gave so much actually useful knowledge to your community, I'm glad to hear that we somehow helped you back. Get better soon, Dan. Regarding the topic of the video: I agree with everything you said and yet still find it beneficial to work at 96k. Many plugins (sine soft clippers, light distortions, compressors, etc...) don't need more than a x2 oversampling to make aliasing inaudible - at 96k, those plugin don't need oversampling at all, just ultrasonic filtering. This means that by using IIR filters (Airwindows Hypersonic for instance) to remove the ultrasonic content you solve the pre-ringing issue of FIR filters (which are by far the most common topology in oversampling algorithms). I's like a cheating IIR oversampling - plus IIR filters are easier on the CPU (which compensates for all the plugins that wouldn't need OS anyway and suck twice the requested power out of your machine). The second advantage is that EQ clamping has never been of my concern. But again, I agree with you: sample rate isn't about good sounding, it's about CPU management and workflow - and your listeners have no interest in either.
Wish you good health. You are easily my favorite musical knowledge labyrinth. You've helped me achieve my own mastery on the physicality of music and waves, especially how it relates to digital tools (technically took me 6 years but 4 actually serious ones). Maybe you'll hear my waves one day.
Dan, glad to hear you finally have a diagnosis and are on the road to whatever recovery is feasible. I've been trying to figure out the best way to go about doing the time stretch proof myself. Thoughts were to record at 192 (highest i have available) then resample downward to 44.1 with stops along the way at the usual suspects and stretch the same amount with the same algorithm settings at each and then compare. Something harmonically complex like a grand piano I felt appropriate. Drums provide wider bandwidth but in my experience tend to leave different artifacts than pitched instruments and slightly less "noticeable", especially if trying pitch shifting. Feel better, rest well! Cheers!
I cannot express enough just how much I appreciate your no nonsense, tell it like it is banter. It seems every youtuber is trying to be, quite literally, more loud and in your face than the next one. I'm a Labour man, share the pain.
I am a kitchen remodeler that's always been fascinated with audio. I've never really been able to spend much time on it because it's such a confusing subject. I found your video 6 months ago. Since then I've been watching as many of your videos as I can in my spare time. All of that to say the clarity that you've brought to the subject has allowed me to enjoy seeking more information. The video where you advised people to pause their membership is the same video that I learned about RUclips memberships. I immediately signed up. On the off chance that you see this comment, I just want to say thanks. I started a podcast last month that focuses on the other businesses that I do work with. Like local plumbers, masons, electricians, etc. If it wasn't for your videos I never would have started the podcast, and the podcast would not have helped small business owners organically grow their customer base. It hasn't moved mountains, but several of them have gotten projects because their audience trusts them from hearing them talk on the podcast. I just mean this comment as an encouragement that your work has helped me and the lives of others. Cheers.
Sorry to hear about your health issues. I hope that it improves out of sight with treatment. (I just noticed that this video is 5 months old. I hope you're feeling better by now!) Thanks for another intelligent and thought-provoking video. Also, listening to you speak is very calming, so thank you for helping improve MY (mental) health!
Hey dan. Thanks again for the info. I wish you all the best and hope you feel better soon. No rush on the video’s, your health comes first and we are not going anywhere.
Wishing you the absolutely best in your recovery, and that you can come back (even though you're still here) even stronger than before. Your knowledge is invaluable in the sea of snake oil in this community, so having you healthy and strong is a net positive for everyone. Would be amazing if the future is so bright that we might even get mix reviews and advice. I hope everything works out!
I first got to know you as the Camel Audio's Alchemy tutorial-guy. Then the FabFilter tutorials. And then all the rest followed. I have been following you religiously since Alchemy, and have enjoyed every single video you posted (even though I didn't understand all of it :). Take good care of yourself -- health comes first, then family, and then the rest. Wishing you all the best from The Netherlands.
Gods speed with your recovery Dan and stay in contact with those folks who decided and found some factor in themselves to offer support in your time of need and recovery.
Your comment about the quality of your community really made me happy for you.

Yes it struck a good nerve. Didn't feel like a collonoscopy at all.

good thing to hear that as a community too.
dan made me do the "umh..yup...aaahh..oooh..yep..i dont actually get it" for a long time now
"Now Mr Worrall we'd like you to provide a sample..", "Well doctor it's not as simple as that..."😁 all the best Dan.
Do they not teach the vocative comma anymore?? Eaten any grandmas lately?
😂👍
@@Anvilshocksorry smart ass
Dan Worrall sharing his knowledge in any capacity will never be considered "low effort".
Agreed - I hope Dan will not feel the burden to conform to any production standard - his help is too valuable.
Best of luck with your new treatment! I am a professor in areas related to sound, recording and mixing. I always tell my students, "You have a friend named Dan Worrall, go watch all the videos of him. And, of course, invite him to your birthday party."

Tak care, have a speedy and easy recovery ❤

As if all the people hating on songs out there have been saying, “if only they’d recorded in 96kHz…”
People always search a reason to claim about. For example A=432Hz songs sound better than A=440Hz😂 which IMHO is the flat earth theory in music
yessss, I've been saying that for years now. It really is the flat earth theory of music. Lol
There was a Gearslutz thread where people were outraged a Katy Perry song was at 44.1k!
@@bassc hahaha what?
On reddit I wouldn't doubt it lol
Just to say that I wish you the best of luck with the new treatment, Dan - I really hope it works out for you !
straight from the bottom of my heart: a good recovery of your health

A bit more wiggle room for anti aliasing filters. You could argue that 20k-24k is twice as good as 20k-22.05k, in terms of filter steepness.
I'm of the opinion that we should all drop 44.1 and make 48k standard. Not going to hold my breath though.
And because I have to pick one, so that's it :)
Hi Dan. We have had less then civilised conversations, but I remained subscribed because I actually find your videos very enlighting. I know a thing or two about how health issues can affect ones life in a variety of ways. I am truly sorry about your problems and wish you all the best. I hope you feel better soon.
As always,,, solid FACTS‼️ ☑️
Hope you feel better soon Dan! Health first!
Wish you all the best, you've continued to teach me plenty of things after I finished University, things that are practical yet I never saw anyone else teaching them. I hope your treatment goes well!
Thank you for *every* one of your videos (your "low effort" is still better than 90% of music producing videos…)! Wishing you all the best and a speedy recovery!
Get well Dan!! Lots of us love you out here!!
I always love your videos… well, it’s really audio, mini podcasts even, with a bit of cover animation…. I’m glad you finally had a diagnosis, and it’s well treatable. Take care as always, I hope you’re feeling chipper soon!
I only record at 384kHz 4 bit, maximum possible resolution on the x axis but only 16 values of y.
you joke, but DSD is a thing
@@mycosys today I learned!
best wishes for your health, and appreciate you mentioning it! I'm in the USA and I've been waiting a month to see a specialist, insurance is really giving me the run around, which has been depressing and infuriating, but your story helps put things in perspective. That said, the NHS definitely seems to work better overall when you look at the cost angle.
You are my lighthouse in the storm. Hope you feel better soon!
Dan, thanks for the video, I always enjoy seeing there in a new DW vid in YT. All the very very best for a speedy and full recovery.
Thanks for bringing such accurate (and non-clickbaity) content about mixing and fundamental audio principles.
Wishing you quick relief and a speedy recovery, Dan ❤
Latency of some ‘tracking live’ plug ins (UAD) IS less at 96khz, than at 44.1khz. That matters - AND IS DIFFERENT. Good luck with your health. x
All the best with your medication treatment. My cousin suffered from the same problem for 4 years. After the right treatment, he regained his quality of life. Thanks for sharing your tutorials. My sample rate has always been 48K, mainly because I also work with 24fps images (soudtracks / music), but I can notice an acoustic difference between recordings made at 44.1K and 48K samples, especially in the high frequencies spectrum. Stay safe.
My samplerate's better than yours
Dude my dad can beat up your sample rate.
@@legacyShredder1 My sample rate's clearly got him covered. Not even a challenge mate
@@ft-rj lol
@@legacyShredder1 *bigger
No, mine is better.
Frankly I love your “low” effort videos just as much as your “high” effort videos. While they may contain fewer pieces of information and that information may be less important.. it’s still quality and usually novel to my ears. Take care Dan, I hope the medication is enough to get it in remission
Big love, Dan! Your videos are always a joy to watch because 1) You avoid the nonsense and deliver top tier practical knowledge, and 2) You are very clearly a top bloke :D Thanks for continuing to share your years of experience with everyone. Really sorry to hear about the Crohn's, those symptoms are rough! But it's great that you're now on a treatment pathway and I hope the medication makes a HUGE difference for you! And yes, f*ck the Tories... let's hope the next lot can sort out the mess!
It's really easy to be a good viewer when the content is of this quality and the creator makes a point of maintaining a high quality standard. The round of applause is also to you for fostering this kind of behaviour. Thank you so much for all you've taught me and I hope you get to deal with your health condition in the best way possible and that we get the tories out when we get a chance!
Hot take: 16bit at 44.1kHz is more than enough for 99% of use-cases
agreed
it's not a hot take. or at least it shouldn't be. the way the math works out, it is enough for human ears.
Bit depth definitely makes a difference. 32bit float, babe. 32bit float.
@@siriusfun thats how much? 1700 something db of pure dynamic range
Thank you for being here for us, no matter the circumstances ! Wish you all the best !
Probably more to do with the NHS being staffed by tiktok dancers than the Tories being in power mate, considering the tories are in and you are now getting great care as you say. The NHS hasn't recovered since c19.
My issue is with the wait, not the quality of care. Waiting lists were already soaring well before COVID. I think maybe hundreds of millions spent on fraudulent VIP lane PPE might be more salient than a few tiktok videos, no? Btw: extremely offensive comment to make to someone whose partner works for the NHS. She, and her colleagues, risked their lives during the pandemic, for ungrateful Tory bastards like you.
@@DanWorrallMy mother worked for the NHS as a mental health nurse. Lol. She agree's. I am not a tory. Why do you keep accusing me of being one whenever I comment? That is offensive bud, making assumptions about people. The NHS has more money than it ever has and still manages to misuse it. It is just a fact of the matter to anyone who does any serious reading about it. I am not going to lower to your level and keep this going like last time. Good grief.
EDIT: And you cannot blame the tories because you had to wait. They do not personally run the hospitals / GP's. They have upper management for that. Many of them cream off the top. Direct your anger at them, not me. I too have had to wait, and most stuff gets done over the phone now. That is the doctors doing that though, not Rishi Sunak - who I cannot stand by the way.
Oh and btw: I didn't have the jab, not because I am anti-vax either before you start. My life was NEVER at risk.
I will tell you a short sort of... story, if you even care to read it. At university years back doing Computer Science, a project of ours was to try and automate aspects of the NHS so doctors didn't have to see patients in person for many aspects of their care. This I saw as a disaster and I made that clear at the time but still had to do the assignment obviously. And it was well before c19. So this has been on the cards for awhile mate. Sorry to have to say it. It will get worse too, no matter which party is at the helm. Other than that I will leave you with this, good luck with the new medication and I hope you get well soon.
You sound like a Tory to me. You know that 'record NHS funding' includes all those billions they gave to their mates for PPE that got burnt?
@@DanWorrall I sound like a tory? How so? No I mean over all the years. Before they were doing it labour were and then before them tories were again. Rofl. Anyway I agree that it was a total waste of money, but labour would have done the same too. What you have to remember is there is no point being tribal about party support. Everyone in that parliament is p**sing in the same pot. The winners are always them, the losers are always us, and nothing that either side wants actually ever gets implemented unless the majority say so. Which they don't. As we see time and time again. But people have short memories it seems.
Get well soon, Dan!!
Socialists always convinced the reason why doesn’t work is because didn’t do enough socialism hahaha
Socialism does work. I got immediate treatment under a (centre) left wing government. Had to wait a year under a right wing government. Spot the difference?
Hey Dan, thank you for everything. Even tho i don't always understand your videos, i do understand that you share valuable knowledge and wisdom. I also have been diagnosed with Crohn disease but i am in a pretty good state since more than 10 years. Just to share with you that there is hope for long lasting recovery. I wish you the very best
You'll have to wait even longer when the next labour government get in.
Labour created the NHS. They left it in rude health after their last term. What do you base that comment on?
You gave so much actually useful knowledge to your community, I'm glad to hear that we somehow helped you back. Get better soon, Dan.
Regarding the topic of the video: I agree with everything you said and yet still find it beneficial to work at 96k.
Many plugins (sine soft clippers, light distortions, compressors, etc...) don't need more than a x2 oversampling to make aliasing inaudible - at 96k, those plugin don't need oversampling at all, just ultrasonic filtering. This means that by using IIR filters (Airwindows Hypersonic for instance) to remove the ultrasonic content you solve the pre-ringing issue of FIR filters (which are by far the most common topology in oversampling algorithms). I's like a cheating IIR oversampling - plus IIR filters are easier on the CPU (which compensates for all the plugins that wouldn't need OS anyway and suck twice the requested power out of your machine).
The second advantage is that EQ clamping has never been of my concern.
But again, I agree with you: sample rate isn't about good sounding, it's about CPU management and workflow - and your listeners have no interest in either.
Dan! everytime one of your videos pops up I get my "f..yes let's go" mood! Wish you the best with your health!
Best wishes for a speedy recovery. You are much loved downunder.
We appreciate you, I’ll pray for tonight!
Wishing you good health Dan. You sound as fit as a fiddle and I wouldn't have known had you not mentioned something. Keep looking forward!
Wish you good health. You are easily my favorite musical knowledge labyrinth. You've helped me achieve my own mastery on the physicality of music and waves, especially how it relates to digital tools (technically took me 6 years but 4 actually serious ones). Maybe you'll hear my waves one day.
Praying for your quick recovery @DanWorrall!
Dan, glad to hear you finally have a diagnosis and are on the road to whatever recovery is feasible.
I've been trying to figure out the best way to go about doing the time stretch proof myself. Thoughts were to record at 192 (highest i have available) then resample downward to 44.1 with stops along the way at the usual suspects and stretch the same amount with the same algorithm settings at each and then compare. Something harmonically complex like a grand piano I felt appropriate. Drums provide wider bandwidth but in my experience tend to leave different artifacts than pitched instruments and slightly less "noticeable", especially if trying pitch shifting.
Feel better, rest well! Cheers!
I was planning on giving myself a round of applause anyway, but I’m glad I got your approval to do so
But seriously, hope you feel better
I wish you all the best Dan! I hope the medical treatment will help!
Get well soon, sir. Wishing you a swift and definitive recovery.
I cannot express enough just how much I appreciate your no nonsense, tell it like it is banter. It seems every youtuber is trying to be, quite literally, more loud and in your face than the next one. I'm a Labour man, share the pain.
I am a kitchen remodeler that's always been fascinated with audio. I've never really been able to spend much time on it because it's such a confusing subject. I found your video 6 months ago. Since then I've been watching as many of your videos as I can in my spare time. All of that to say the clarity that you've brought to the subject has allowed me to enjoy seeking more information.
The video where you advised people to pause their membership is the same video that I learned about RUclips memberships. I immediately signed up.
On the off chance that you see this comment, I just want to say thanks.
I started a podcast last month that focuses on the other businesses that I do work with. Like local plumbers, masons, electricians, etc. If it wasn't for your videos I never would have started the podcast, and the podcast would not have helped small business owners organically grow their customer base.
It hasn't moved mountains, but several of them have gotten projects because their audience trusts them from hearing them talk on the podcast.
I just mean this comment as an encouragement that your work has helped me and the lives of others.
Cheers.
I hope you can get effective treatment and start to recover soon Dan the man. You’re a gem
Sorry to hear about your health issues. I hope that it improves out of sight with treatment. (I just noticed that this video is 5 months old. I hope you're feeling better by now!) Thanks for another intelligent and thought-provoking video. Also, listening to you speak is very calming, so thank you for helping improve MY (mental) health!
Sincerely hope your medication will work and that you feel at least way better. Take care Mate, you are precious!
Love from France 🙏🙏🙏
Hey dan.
Thanks again for the info.
I wish you all the best and hope you feel better soon.
No rush on the video’s, your health comes first and we are not going anywhere.
Wishing you the absolutely best in your recovery, and that you can come back (even though you're still here) even stronger than before. Your knowledge is invaluable in the sea of snake oil in this community, so having you healthy and strong is a net positive for everyone. Would be amazing if the future is so bright that we might even get mix reviews and advice. I hope everything works out!
I am wishing you the power to please stay strong and positive despite that illness!🤞
Dan, my thoughts and prayers are with you. I sincerely hope that you do well with your treatment and that it works wonders. God speed. .
Best wishes for a speedy recovery Dan!
you’re such a thoughtful dude! thanks for this as always :)
I first got to know you as the Camel Audio's Alchemy tutorial-guy. Then the FabFilter tutorials. And then all the rest followed. I have been following you religiously since Alchemy, and have enjoyed every single video you posted (even though I didn't understand all of it :). Take good care of yourself -- health comes first, then family, and then the rest. Wishing you all the best from The Netherlands.
Health is all there is, feel better soon thank u for sharing all your insights with us all these years!
Be well! I hope the meds help. Thanks for the video!
praying for your health and recovery dan
Take care and speedy recovery Sinsei.
You are my most favourite RUclipsr, no matter how often you upload.
Alles Gute, Dan. Get well soon. Cheers from Germany
Gods speed with your recovery Dan and stay in contact with those folks who decided and found some factor in themselves to offer support in your time of need and recovery.
Wishing U a good recovery, Dan!
Get well soon, Dan! Wishing you very fast recovery!
