High-res Downloads of Orchestral music available


This is a first for the internet. 24-bit/96kHz remastered tape files available for downloading. This music is a MUST download. Some of these tracks are famous performances that are highly sought after. If you have an Off-Ramp Turbo or Turbo2, Off-Ramp I2S or a Transporter, you can play these native 24-bit/96kHz files. They are encoded in FLAC.

The first samples (exerpts) are being offered for download are FREE at this URL:

TVAD - you must convert it to 16/44.1 first and then you can write a playable disk. There are a number of tools you can buy, but this one is free:

alternative, there is free software available to create and burn DVD-Audio disc of 24/96 material...
you can download "DVD-Audiofile" from this website:
http://24bit.turtleside.com/
DVD-Audiofile is just a windows frontend for this open source project: http://dvd-audio.sourceforge.net/

DVD-Audiofile creates a disc image (i.e. you get an .ISO file), which you can then burn onto standard DVD+/-R media with Nero, ImgBurn, or whatever other program.

I do this all the time with live recordings and 24 bit material.

I suspect most people here have DVD players that are capable of playing back DVD-Audio discs. however, if you don't, there is also free software available that will take 24 bit files and create a DVD-Video disc, with just a blank screen for the video.
This indeed is good news. One of the things we're working on at the New Jersey Symphony has been to make our archives available on i-Tunes or a similar service, as a number of orchestras have been doing. Now that we have been recording our concerts in a 24/96 format, the possibility of being able to offer that for download is something more for us to look into.
RCprince - maybe Bob at highdeftapetransfers.com can sell your tracks for you. You should email him.

Sidssp - These tracks can be played from iTunes on a MAC. You may have to uncompress them first to .wav using the tool that is on the highdef website.
