What exactly is PRaT???

....20' above it, 50 yards from the mudfield....slept through the night mostly, waking to heavy rain and the winds.  Nil damage.

@asvjerry  , straying from OP's topic, I am happy to read that you were spared from the major devastation.  It was horrific to see on television, and I cannot imagine what it would be like to actually experience losing everything.  PRaT takes a back door to that.

Back on topic, after following this thread for a bit now, as nearly as I can ascertain, PRaT seems to be in the ear of the beholder.  If it gets your toe tapping it has PRaT?  In that case, although my system is hardly 'end game',  I've been listening to and experiencing PRaT for quite some time without realizing it.  ​​​​​​

Just got the Prat reference 

Lerxst, Dirk and Pratt will not soon be forgotten as the best rock band of all time.

Let loose the the dogs of war

Tony Rice, one of the legendary flatpickers, explains how his bands let the music breathe by mixing beats or a he rightfully calls it "pulse.

"Tony Rice On Time In Music

I've posted that in my opinion PRaT relates to the time domain, not the frequency domain that we usually talk about.  To the person that never listens to symphonic music, I would ask if that extends to films which use such music to underscore the drama?

Classical music almost always does have a beat, it is just not as in-your-face as some other genres and can be very complex and rewarding if you get it.  A big orchestra faces a big timing problem though - the visual clues from the conductor travel at the speed of light (near instantaneous) but sound is much slower.  It takes almost 1/10th of a second to travel 30-meters.  The Sydney Opera House Concert Hall stage is about 19-meters wide and is small for a major concert venue, because of the concrete shell surrounding it, although it is comparable with the Berliner Phiharmoniker  I pity the organist sitting high towards the roof looking in his rear-vision mirror down at the conductor in the distance!

Nevertheless conductors like John Wilson can make a good orchestra rock ...

@bolong ...Re Cha-cha cha...."Fascinating, but you can't dance to it..."

Dense....dwarf star alloy level, if speed read you will bruise one's brain...

MHO, and I'm stuck with it. ;)

@immatthewj ... It's been and will continue for quite awhile, an Experience.
Can't say recommended....but the Pause to look about you and consider....😔

Yes, back to PRaT falls... ;)

Hey, if what you listen to doesn't make you 'move' in some fashion, physically and/or emotionally, in yet another mho, you're listening to the wrong stuff.

Ultimately, the means that you apply to create that grand illusion for as long as you love or tolerate it despite the bugs ignored to do so....

...IS the Point.

*blink*

PRaTically guaranteed .... ;)
