(Article) Wav Files..the original music

Wav files   The widescreen of mp3 pan and scan

Updated 22/01/13
Wav are the professional recording studio and now home studio industry standard.  When you hear a new songs, all the elements, whether it be guitar, drums, vocals, keyboards, they all get mixed down to one stereo mix, which usually is a way file.  You can play on most media players, but for some reason, they have got overlooked by the public

Before the internet came along, they were unavailable to the public because only professional walk recording studios used them, which went to plants for pressing vinyls and other hard copies. Wav is also better than CDs, as CDs sound is also a compression format

The reason for lack of Wav sales? is because mp3s became commerical first. MP3s are the first compressed formar to hit the market though illegal download sites. Whether you like it or not, the industry, which is now colapsing around people ears, stole the idea and made it legal

The files size difference between a wav and an mp3 is very big. An average size mp3 is 20mb or less, Wav is 50 to 100mb for 3-6 minutes song

The reason, i personally don't like mp3 is sometimes the sound quality, but sometimes the manipulation of the sound. They are various rates from watery really rubbish quality sound which is around the 96 mark, upto 320k, which is the clearest

Many people do not understand that wav is the original digital format. It has been used for many years, before mp3s come along.  If you want to support a band or more than one in digital form,, buy the wav file...open it up and you get the full unliquified quality

The History of Record Shops

Image
Since I have been helping to promote local record shops Strummer Room Records and new Mac’s Music Store here in Banbury  (One way of being involved), It occurred to me that not much attention historically is being paid towards record shops.  As a former owner of record shop Demand  Records ( still dabble with online vinyl album sales)(I miss it like crazy), I thought I would focus on this.  I realised recently that my shop is a part of. Over the decades there have been independent and chain stores. Depends where you live. The starting point is Banbury, who knows where this may lead?  I have decided to make this journey broader.  I thought to myself I am bound to get asked at some point. At the moment this is a few blogs and the start of an ongoing series on Youtube. This may lead to a documentary at some point. But not getting too far ahead of myself.                                                      Picture of Strummer Room Recorfs Strummer Room Records ( 4 years walk in and online

Finally, i can now play vinyl records again on radio

Before the headlines, an update.... Co Presenter The radio variety show has always been able to evolve or move in various directions. Reason for the difficult task of finding a good name for the show In April 2015, i found a co presenters, Educational publisher and graphic designer, Darren Coles. We began messing about on radio, and wanted to come up with a duo name. For some reason, animals come into conversation and we ended up with, Dog and Crow. I am Dog and Darren is Crow. Partly the reason, for this is because, Darren, can do a wicked, Crow sound and i can do a Dog one Show HQ has moved again A place i have been waiting for over a year finally landed. My father knew of a couple who were to rent a house. I was in the position to move in, but heard nothing for long time. Then the chess pieces fell into place, hired a van to move the gear and we landed into new HQ, beginnig of November 2015 Improvements Darren has a technical mind. He has gear, has been in bands and can se

The travel guide of Fun For Louis, aka Louis Cole

Back in the day, when TV and traveling around the world to different places was kind of everywhere, it was really entertaining, This has all but gone from the main British channels. One TV series that stood out was " The Rough Guide" taking you to the non tourist area's, well places where they allowed TV cameras That was the 1990s, now fast forward to 2014/2015 Youtube is now the place for many people to watch, essentially, TV. At the start, Youtube is not what it is now. However, more people are vlogging ( Short for video blog), comedy and documentaries. I am not a fan of collecting loads of people on Youtube and subscribing, as there is a lot of channels with the same stuff. You have, revewers, technology and gaming, which does get tedious after a while. It takes something good to grab my attention and one such person, from Surrey, England. is Louis Cole Although his, Youtube, life didn't start out daily vlogging or travelling, it is now the content he
