What is SACD
Super Audio CD is a read-only optical disc format for audio storage, introduced in 1999. It was developed jointly by Sony and Philips Electronics, and intended to be the successor to the Compact Disc format. The SACD format allows multiple audio channels.
One-bit Audio Consortium - the future of SACD?
Hi,
I have noted that Korg in relation to their presentation of the MR-1000 on their webpages mention something called the "One-bit Audio Consortium".
Anybody who knows about this?
SACD mastering software
Hi,
I'm considering recording audio in the DSD format and would like to know how I transfer the recorded files to files that are put on an SACD. My searches on the internet have not revealed much software that do this (whatever the reason for that?)

Is SACD Dead?
This is the question. I have heard rumours, some quite reliable that it has "gone to meet its maker".
Anyone have any info that is "solid"? Also I guess this applies to DVD-A as well.
The big news seems to be HD DVD.
Comments, abuse, invective, seething injustices ?

Question about SACD.
Hi,
I was wondering if the redbook-CD part on an SACD comes from the same premaster as the SACD part.(apart from the fact that the end-format is different offcourse.)
Reason I ask is because comparisons wouldn't be valid really if the one version is the original redbook master and the other a remastered version.

Has anyone heard SACD?
I just did, and it sounded pretty damn good. Good fat low end, sick definition and imaging, highs that don't hurt. Who else has heard one of these things?
