I took my MR1 for a ride this afternoon, setting up a pair of Josephson C617s with Gefell large diameter caps (MK102.1), baffled with GuySonic's "LiteGuy" going into an SD722, with the unbalanced analog tape-out from the 722 going to the Korg. Both recordings sound great, but when I went to compare them in Wavelab I got the following: the 722 recording at 24/192 looks like a normal tape, but the MR1 DSF recording run through AudioGate to be 24/192 wav, though it sounds fine, comes out looking fat and fuzzy, even the silent parts have a fuzz that runs to almost 50% of the signal though I hear nothing. Looks like some sort of low frequency artifact, but when I tried exporting the DSD from Audiogate at 16/44.1 it looks normal. At 24/96 the fuzz is faintly there, the silent parts not quite a nice line like the direct 722 tape and the 16/44.1 export.
Anybody got a clue what this is? Or how to get rid of it? Anyone else try exporting to 24/192?
