at risk of repearing myself all vinyl samples shared will have to be recorded through daw so its being converted in some form anyway wether it was from a tape, cd, vinyl.
as youve seen in this thread some people wont want to use a mp3 but will happily take a wav/aiff converted from mp3!? vinyl is just another branch of the same pretentious tree...its all bulls*it
seriously man go learn about mastering to vinyl and to cd, im not lying about their being different methods (or at least frequencies that are avoided on vinyl)
and i dont use a DAW when recording samples, i like to keep my chain clean - dj mixer straight to mpc is the cleanest - to go dj mixer, audio interface, daw, bounce back to mpc would be waste of time.
argument over, you seem like a good dude, my point has been shared, whether you understand it or not is up to you.
I think cats wig out over mp3 but not flac is cos a flac can be converted with no loss of quality, a mp3 is already a sacrifice of quality - its a converted lesser version of a wav
I think the argument for me is the sound.
Read this man it will open your eyes a bit to the mastering process of the two!
