Stokowski Symphonic Transcriptions - Poster Notes.txt
Source: Personal CD purchased via Amazon.
Processing: Ripped using DbPowerAmp Secure mode.
Notes: This seems to have been removed from the catologue; it is hard to find information about this exact release and isn't on Streaming services. If I didn't still have a physical 'kopie', I might think it never existed.
If you bother to glance at the logs, you will see that I actually rip to ape (monkey's Audio) using the extra High setting, since it is about 10% smaller than flac for classical music. The disadvantage is that it takes significantly longer to decode & to seek, and only has partial hardware and software support. Tak only the highest setting is almost as good a compressor as Ape Extra High and faster to decode, but is closed source and has much less hardware/software support. I wrecommend against using Ape on the Extreme setting because it is so slow; archival purposed only.
Everything I post, people have full permission to post anywhere else, reconvert to a lossy format, edit the files, etc. I don't own the copyright; they aren't mine; I am just a messenger.
More Stokowski reorchestrations will follow in the week ahead. There's about another 10 albums that partially or completely contain his material, excluding recordings Stokowski himself conducted.
