Lots of fake emulations in my VST folder ahahahaha
Joking. Or not..

 

That isn't so because it detects the difference between the nominal and the actual bit rate.
That can happen only if the file was re-encoded to a higher bit rate.

Ohh damn? I'm going to try running my sample library through one too then!

 

DoubleTake said: "I only want the highest quality.
So i can crush it into oblivion and saturate the shit out of it."

Hey, don't laugh!
I only use the highest quality bit-crushing and saturation.
I just want to be sure the samples deserve are deserving.

 

that's how it is represented to work, but I have many original files it thinks are fake

 

What do you mean by 'original'?
Could you post a screenshot of such a file, wrongly analyzed by Fakin' the Funk?
It could happen only if you deliberately completely filtered out some of the high frequency content.

I'm with Stopped.

There's a lot of music that was profesionally released that was done at low bit rate around the start of the mellenium. The biginning of the 2nd digital music age.

Unfortunatly the only example I can think of is "Crazy Frog -Axel-F", but there are others.

The orignial songs in these case used low quality samples and processing. Since it was made with low bit rate parts, it is detected as low bit rate.

As I said this mostly happened round the start of the mellenium but you need to remeber that around the year 2005 the main meduims people where listening to their music from was TV, radio and mp3 players. None of these have ever been noted as being high quality.
