General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

RE: such an odd dichotomy

"On the other hand, you're not a musician,"

What do musicians know about audio by being a musician? Particularly that a non-musician is incapable of knowing?



"not an audio engineer, not an acoustician, and don't work in any of those fields."

Yeah, that's why I consult actual experts on those subjects. There are a lot of quacks and snake oil salesmen parading as audio engineers and acousticians. I have done a lot of reading and homework and do have a lot of experience. Not nearly enough to make me an expert but more than enough to sniff out the real experts from the pretenders.

That gets the job done



"Yet you presume to know more about audio than those who are."

all that to set up a classic argument from authority fallacy.

But with that fallacy pointed out. NO! I don't presume to know more than I actually know. I get my info from real experts. And since it's from actual experts, top experts it tends to be really good info.

One does not have to have status to have the information and understand it.

And in this particular case you don't need to be an expert to see big problems on waterfall plots when they are there.
