Higher resolution dsp/mastering

Im saying why does he use an mpc 3000 and not a 4000 (with 24-bit, 96khz sampling potential)? is the sound of the original 3000 that much better?

Can anyone explain to me why Thes doesn't settle for 16-bit cd resolution by using the hd-aac codec but still uses an mpc 3000 which is a 16-bit sampler? Seems to defeat the purpose, or am I missing something..

haha it proved to be too much for me at least. I cracked an hour or so ago.
There goes almost the last of my money, again. It would've been an easier decision if the album was straight from the P, but I'll take what I can get!

I feel exposed......cracks are showing

The instrumentals are all tacked onto the end of Highlighter.

Thats a great shout....however i would love all of the instrumentals but basically don't need to purchase the whole lot again for them and buying them one by one is a bit costly.....i am sure i will break though!!!! I just wish thre was another way.

Im in the same boat man! I don't exactly need a fourth copy of Highlighter, as amazing of an album as it is.

For those interested in the albums instrumental tracks (as Im sure most on this forum are), and don't use streaming services like rdio or spotify, the new album is on iTunes. The instrumentals are all tacked onto the end of Highlighter.
I kind of wish they had made the instrumentals their own release, as I've already bought the actual album a couple times now and in various formats. The way they have it listed its cheaper to just buy the whole album again with the tracks than picking up just the instrumentals. But I suppose I should be grateful they're available at all, and ready to go into my own collection, even if they're not on wax!
