To all vinyl lovers out there please continue to replace all your CD's. I will be more than happy to buy your CD collection. People are practically giving away their CD"s at garage sales and thrift stores. I hope to take advantage of this as long as I can.

Compare Black Beauty with Black magic.

Why do people hate Taylor idk why

My vinyl record player was only 40.00 and it’s fantastic I love it it’s a portable vinyl player

I had a huge vinyl collection but the surface noise issue; the rumble; the hiss; the cracks and pops; the warping - the fact that every play wore away the high frequency (only takes 15 plays to significantly decline) and that every play destroyed the vinyl surface due to friction and dust attracted by static; the fact that no record is ever able to be centered causing its own problems of wow and flutter; the fact that classical vinyl sounds poor; the fact that the quality of the vinyl varies between producers; the fact that vinyl is poor regards BASS - All that and the cost and hassle of the various components to try and solve these problems (anti-static sleeves; needles; lubricants etc) made me steer away from it. The warmth argument I've never understood - maybe its a love of surface noise??? And lets not talk about the price of records v CDs - OMG!

Good job Marc!

Enjoyed your choice of song, your singing and especially the guitar. What Martin guitar was that? Eric Clapton's model? 👌

Good to see you shouting out Vinyl Moon! I have been a subscriber for 4 years and just re-upped for the 5th. I’ve also bought several records they have pressed for individual albums from some of the artists they have featured. I love how they give artists money AND exposure, and it’s probably the expense I feel best about.

Sounds just okay, nothing great

Loved it. ❤I am gonna buy it for the church in two months

Ludwig will always be No.1 , I use the Ludwig Blackrolite model , Ludwig brought back there original 18 strand 1963 fine wire snares, that's way their drums have the bright crisp sound. If you like a crisper brighter sound for jazz lighter playing or with brushes use the Remo Diplomat thinner head, but it won't take have hitting, it will dent in the plastic head with hard playing

I think you mean a rim tap. A rimshot is hitting the snare drum and the rim at the same time for a "cracky" backbeat. Thanks for explaining your church kit!

Stop to talk about CDs, don't be that hipster! Don't ruin our hobby raising the prices!

You nailed it. I stopped watching football because I could not tolerate the hate toward her and the comparisons to Kelce’s ex who keeps showing her T and A for a living and is trying to hurt another woman. Friggin’ football is so male oriented that many red neck imbeciles cannot stand that she is a super success and also a normal person. She truly is a gifted writer and I am not a pop fan but I recognize literary gifts. She is also most likely a genius. It helps that she is very pretty too.

Can't hear a single word you are saying with all that background music.

Actually, all of Brian Wampler's drive pedals are killing some other brand's flagship pedals!

Well, I think records are more collectible (generally), but CDs are more handy, convenient, and versatile. As far as quality, records are the more "natural" sound due to being literally the soundwave etched to the plastic. But CD sound is immune to the scratches, pops, and hisses vinyl is often known for, making for a more pristine listening experience. What do I buy? CDs, usually, because they tend to be a lot cheaper, take up less space, and will last a lot longer.

I don't think you're getting the best sound possible with this configuration, man. There's a clashing of the bass notes, it's all rumbly and shaky, but without a firm feeling of a distinct, singular bass tone underneath the guitar chord. I think it's mostly your chord voicings, they need to be adapted for that sort of playing. For example, you play a C/G instead of C, with the low 6th string, I suggest a regular C, even muting the 4th string to bring more separation and clarity to what will become the low-end. Think of the bottom 3 strings as a bass guitar: you don't want your bassist to play 2 strings at the same time, abeit for rare exceptions :) So yeah, that's what I'd do - try to minimize the polyphony in the lowest voices and add clarity to the mix.

I say CDs, LPs/records, LP records. Single, record single, cd single.

Great sound and nice vocal chain!

Collecting vinyl is a form of masochistic nostalgia for those who grew up with vinyl and for those who didn't, it's just a trend that trend-obsessed people can't rationally explain to themselves. Some traditions should be kept in life, but some should be unloaded immediately after something better appears. There are few things in my life that make me as angry as the insane manipulation of digital music files by record companies in order to attract listeners. Of course, I'm talking about the loudness war. With this process, the vast majority of the advantages that the digital music file had over the analog music carrier were destroyed and the CD was compromised. Man creates, man destroys... A CD can sound absolutely like vinyl if it is mastered in the same way, and it can sound much better if the full dynamic range available is used. It can sound like garbage if compressed. There should be a law with mandatory jail time for idiots who abuse digital mastering and produce such crap. But today there are remastered editions of music coming out on CD that respect the dynamic range and correct the old, crappy editions. As for me, I'm a 58 year old man who grew up in the vinyl era and would rather have acute hemorrhoid attacks every 5 days than go back to back to those objects of torture and frustration. Nowadays I buy cds obsessively in bulk on eBay and wherever I can find them because I want to own music. If I like something I'm streaming, I buy a CD.

Vinyl sells more, but half of those vinyl buyers don't own a turntable, so just collectors. I have recently decided to stick with digital formats including CD, SACD and DSD downloads. DSD sounds as good or better than vinyl (IMO) without any of the drawbacks of noisy, scratched or flawed pressings (yes, even those from Acoustic Sounds and MoFi at $60 a pop). SACD is close. I'll keep my turntable and albums but will rarely buy vinyl at this point.

Why talk about “MP3 file formats”? Flac is far superior as it’s lossless. You don’t mention the price difference and the ability to rip perfect FLAC copies from a CD. However, Many CDs are brick walled in terms of sound.

Maybe if you have high end equipment and a warp free pressing, from a very good analog master. I don't see the point of digital files mastered to vinyl. Though I do know people who swear by digital recordings on vinyl.

This horse was beaten to death ad infinitum years ago.😉

His posture makes me trust him

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 This is most excellent! ❤️🎶❤️📸😎

It is many factors an original master on vinyl on a $100k system with a great cartridge and speakers will sound like your in the studio digital is alway compressed but it can be cleaner in sound but the warmth ain’t there apples to oranges way I look at it if you don’t have the funds go digital

No

Good

topic covered 6 million times by 2023 on youtube.

Of course CD's are better. No question.

For me I'm not an audiophile in the slightest so sound quality I'm not really bothered. It's more storing, handling and price that's the deal breaker for me... I only get my favourite favourite albums on vinyl and get duplicates + everything else on CD, sometimes cassette. Because vinyl just takes up SO! Much room! You can fit like 100 CD's in the space 30 vinyl records take up. Plus vinyl if you don't get special shelves can be a pain in the ass to store, falling over on themselves at a whim, even if you have book ends and stuff holding them up so you constantly need to make sure they're all leaning in a way to balance eachother out without too much pressure at either end. Vinyl in general is SO much more expensive, like 2-5 times the price per album. Handling them can be such a pain, fiddling to get them in and out their sleeves without damaging the sleeves or the disc.. or hell trying not to drop the sleeves or disc since they're such awkward shapes in the hand. Trying hard not to catch them on anything to avoid such easy damage to the disc. Having to constantly be wiping the dust and hairs off them before you can spin a side, and static... uuuggghhh static is such a pain in the ass. But... vinyl records just look really nice in your hand, they have more art work, they feel special and they're very fascinating to spin. And although they're such a pain in so many ways, it's these good points that keeps me buying my favourites on them. But I rebuy every single album I have on vinyl on CD too because I often just cannot be bothered to deal with the annoyances of vinyl. While a CD, even a cassette, I can just stick in and play no problem.

I can't tell the difference to be honest and don't care. When I reminisce about playing records in the 70s-80s the imperfections of vinyl is the first thing that comes to my mind. I'm retiring in 2 years and have started buying vinyl. I buy about 1 a month. So I should have 20-30 of my favourite records by then.

Nailed it!

Im a vinyl nut, partially because of the artwork and extra goodies. CDs just seem like McDonalds, quick cheap and gets the job done, but zero finesse. Im currently rebuying all those 90s albums i was forced to buy on cd( because they werent available on vinyl at the time), on vinyl format, and its like discovering completely new albums. I can sit down and look at all the packaging, while playing the entire thing . I dont have to squint to read the liner notes. It was too easy to hit that skipbutton on your cd player, because you had nothing to look at while playing a new cd. I'm listening to complete tracks, that previously i only knew the first 10 seconds of lol, cause i hit the skip button. Plus, i played cds in the car, where you REALLY cant listen in depth. Now, i buy the vinyl, spend the time listening and looking at liner notes, while recording it digitally, so i can have it on my phone / bluetooth too. For me , i make my own cds ( or wav files in the cloud), its not an EITHER OR, for me its BOTH. I got back into vinyl early, almost as soon as it was gone. 1998, i hooked my turntable to my computer, made my own cds from vinyl and have been doing it ever since, except now, its in the cloud. Back in 98, vinyl was all but obsolete, but it slowly started to filter back in, and im ecstatic

It’s not solo if you are using tracks

It is not a vinyl - it is a record or lp. Never called it that years ago and still should not today.

CD's are definitely more practical and you can pretty much play them in anything CD stereo systems, DVD and Blu-Ray players, listen to them in the car. They won't break the bank to get a decent sound.

CDs are also cheaper, making it more available for people. And the good CD players are a lot cheaper than a good turn table. I think that CDs are better because it is so much more available to buy compared to vinyl.

There are thousands of videos on KZbin discussing this. The idea that you think you figured out this question is insane.

Can't wait to find out if apples are better than oranges.

Let's be honest. RSD releases are no match to first pressing when it comes to sound quality. It seems like the pressing factory these days just uses cheap materials to get these so called hype vinyl into store shelves.

Even if you are really rough with your CDs and let them get a bit scratched: most CD players can work around that the way they are designed. If not, you can polish the bottom of a CD and restore it. Can't do anything like that to a vinyl record if you scratch it. And best you can take out a gouge that is so big that it's causing the record to skip. The things I like about vinyl are that I can find it and stumbled across a lot of different recordings that I would have not found any other way. Sometimes that has opened me up to a whole rabbit hole of different bands and artists that were never presented to me through streaming services on the radio I also enjoy Mechanics of a record player. Lately I even acquired some at track players and I have always had tape decks. It's not that I think that they sound any better but I can play just about any recording I come across. I find things that I may have never seen or thought about buying in another format in another format.

love the hot takes 😆

The reality is that both formats are nowadays just merch as opposed to the main format for listening to the content. Unless you’re lucky to listen to artists who care about audiophile grade vinyl (Taylor Swift doesn’t care), what you’re paying is for the artwork in the packaging and in some cases in the disc itself. Same goes to CDs. No longer being the main format, we don’t know how much care the factory is taking to assure the disc won’t develop rot overtime. And please try not to care that much about the numbers (dynamic range etc) and let your ears decide. I do have vinyl that outperforms the lossless digital version. Let’s try to avoid the snobbery here 😂
