It sounds infallible from a theoretical perspective, but though I'm a huge fan of the scientific method I haven't really drilled down and attempted to separate the wheat from the chaff -- for my own purposes, let's just say -- in the whole null test discussion. There is something about the intransigence of some members of the null test crowd that I find disquieting; I'm much more comfortable with statements like "the preponderance of evidence suggests" rather than "this is so, without doubt." A brief glance at the history of scientific thought will bear me up on the dubious merits of surety.
For instance, what was the verdict on
this thread, in which people claimed to absolutely null pricey plugin eqs with their cheap or free counterparts? Was that conclusively decided? Is there doubt?
Just to be clear, I made no claims that Samp "sounds better" in some absolute sense. I stated that Samplitude sounds better --
to me. A different point. I look at this from the viewpoint of a person working to get music
out. I grab the box that works best for the situation and I get to work.
I'm amused by this discussion, and I do have my perspective, but I'm not committed to "proving" anything. I'm committed to getting the work done to the best of my ability.
Cheers.
