Judging by some of the responses I have received about the second
query I made, I feel I may not be expressing myself very well. I do
actually own a minidisc recorder at the moment which I use to sample
from to make music on my PC. I was just wondering whether filtering
and other manipulations would bring out the difference in quality
between a sample from a minidisc and one from a CD (assuming that I
hadn't noticed one before filtering).
