speed of live?
if cd sample rate is 44.1 at 16 bit...then what would the sample rate of live music be and what bit depth?
also...whats the speed of dark?

then what would the sample rate of live music be and what bit depth? The same. The reason music dudes use these numbers is because that's how they appear in nature. Sonic purity is realized once you cross the "Nyquist Principle" of 18.93kHz (which is really just a fancy way of saying "cheese"). As for bit rate, when we listen to stuff, we only hear "bits and pieces" of what is actually present in the audio spectrum. We can't hear everything, since we would go crazy if we did. So our brains have separated the "listening lobe" into 17 parts. We take 16 of the "bits and pieces, or "bits"" we actually hear, and process them in these 16 cerebral enclosures according to height. Then we "transformatize" them into one coherent whole which is processed in the 17th enclosure and sent to the ears. Anything the ears don't like, they turn into wax. Hence the eversteady Q-tip market exists for humans, but not for other life forms such as crocodiles and cheetahs (they can't hear...their "5th" sense is "sensed" by "sensory sensors" in their upper/lower lip/intestine.") So you see, "all that is sounded is not heard," to quote the famous 17th century bar-hopper, Caren Karpenter...

Simple - plug a lamp into an outlet that's controlled by a wall switch across the room. Measure the distance between the lamp and switch. Now get a stopwatch - turn the switch off/start the stopwatch at the same moment. When it gets dark where you are, stop the stopwatch. Do the math - and get back to us with the results.........

i bumped my head on the lamp crawling around on the floor in the dark looking for my stopwatch... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH i see...iv found a very basic equation for this fundamental process in nature...  OF COURSE!!! what was i thinking...it all seems so elementry now.

speed of live Just ditch it! Soundblasters have no speed..unless i'm wrong and the "what u hear" turns that on.

Right well live is usually sampled at room temperature, so taking into account the alcoholic beverage absorption coefficient and then factoring in the long haired rocker variables I would recommend using 48/24 bites, you can try chewing, but that is of course optional.
The speed of dark can be calculated with some easily obtainable materials
1) Yourself
2) A common or garden wall
3) A chronograph that retains its last measurement.
Run against the wall head first at a slow speed, gradually keep speeding up your runs untill you achieve unconsciouness, when you wake up the last measurement in teh chronograph is your own personal speed of dark.
Enjoy
(kids don't try this at home it is only for qualified sound experts)

Oh, that´s an easy one - white light is all colours & black is none, i.e. has no speed at all - if you meant different shades of dark, now that´s errm  , well  , duh  ......I´ve got to go & watch the dishwasher now, very urgent, don´t want to miss the evening entertainment.......

The speed of dark is directly related to the strength of the G-forces administered from a good uppercut to the jaw.

the sample rate of live is a variable rate directly proportional to the frequency of the sound of which the bit depth is infinite, but for practical purposes, as high as the current technology can support, so it also varies over time. the speed of infinite dark is 0, however, in a black hole can be -0+x to add, the relevancy of the answers are directly proportional to the relevancy of the questions with a tolerance factor of x.

Someone said: I've had more time to play with this, and am withdrawing the bug remarks.
This appears to work as designed and is actually a pretty cool feature.

I'm pretty sure the speed of dark is 88mph

I saw it in a movie once

I tried this, but it was too dark to see what the stopwatch said.
