Question Possible hardware explanation

We had one user recently who used to complain about the distortion, so he changed his outboard gear and ALL the problems with Keyrite disappeared! We discussed this and here is the theory we came up with.

Keyrite is a powerful Digital Signal Processor that changes the phasing of the harmonic components, because of its filters and windows required for processing (a window is a block of samples used in a digital audiio calculation). Also, the overlap of samples in the processed "windows" further changes the phase on some harmonic components differently from others.

Now, here is the catcher: Lower quality analog filters that DO exist in your systems following your Digital-to-Analog output converters, or the rolloff in your amplifier or other outboard audio gear, also have filtering effects. When the phase shifted samples processed by Keyrite are sent through analog filters that have non-linear phase performance, it can cause random anomolies based on the original sound.


If this theory is correct, it would absolutely define why George and many others have never heard the artifacts that others hear. Instead of trying Keyrite on another computer, try it with a high quality sound card, and better outboard gear.

Read the topmost post and post your analog audio gear in this different Thread so we can all compare notes. Specifically, what hardware D/A converters do you use and what outboard gear do you use. We may be able to find a common thread here.
