Graphic report of data dropped by audio encoders.

These are graphical representations of the audio data which is lost when implementing different encoders.

These graphics were produced by: inverting the *source-audio-data* against the *encoded-audio-data*

Although an encoder may remove tons of data from the source, it may not actually alter the sonic experience. Some encoders may remove 'too-much' data to the point that it changes the sonic experience. It is important to experiment with different encoders until you find the best choice for your project.

DJ ADD DRIVES HIS CAR EMPTY TO THE GAS PUMP

DJ ADD drives a vehicle which has a computerized gasoline monitoring system.

Upon driving from "a"-to-b, he realized he needed to make a pit-stop at "c" to fuel up, because he was about to run out of gas.


"I usually try to fill up when I get below empty, but I was really busy this week..." -DJ ADD



DJ ADD Made it to the pump just in time! His screen ticked from "1 mile to empty" to "0 miles to empty" just as he pulled up to the pump.


Can we get a "HELL YEAH"?


Oh, it was over $80 to fill up....

ALL THE RAGE THROW DOWN AT ROTA GALLERY



It was just another Friday night in Plattsburgh NY... EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT HxC BAND: 'ALL THE RAGE' WAS ROCKING THE FUDGE OUT DOWN AT THAT ROTAGILLA STUDIO AND GALLERY 19 CLINTON STREET. Stepping into the art gallery filled with rowdy and substance free patrons, my earplugs experienced good use as All The Rage blasted throbbing sound-waves through the air. The crowd surged with head-banging babes, and body-slamming boys (& gentlemen.) Could the crowd understand the vocalist's aggressive messages? Who cares! All The Rage energized all in attendance.

Local Troublemakers Release New Album!



This was recorded by the Bassist for some cat-obsessed band I can't remember the name of. Guitarist Alex Cribb reports that it was recorded using a "bunch of shit". Be sure to check these hooligans out at The ROTA Studios and Gallery on March  3rd, with some other local musicians! Here's the facebook link so you can invite all your friends and their grandmothers: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Alright so I guess they didn't make a Facebook link yet; that's no reason not to go! If anything, it should be more of an incentive to go. Specialexperience blog will be on-site, don't you want to be just like specialexperienceblog?

***UPDATE***
Alex Cribb apparently plays bass in the band. We here at specialexpericeband have a strict non-retraction policy. So ALEX CRIBB, IT'S TIME TO START PLAYING GUITAR FOR TIRE FIRE, SPECIALEXPERIENCEBLOG MAKES NO MISTAKES.
