lol...

so, i just tried to do a lossless compress on that last track, and it won't compress. if you know how this works a little...

what it does is it looks for strings of zeroes, which represent empty space in the wave file. now, what that means is complicated but "empty space" is intuitive - it's data that's not filled in, or is filled in with zeroes to be precise. it then combines strings of zeroes together, cutting down on the amount of bits required to store the data. what that means is that - and this is different than an mp3 - that the amount you can losslessly compress a sound by depends on the complexity of the sound. a recording of the creek outside your house will have more empty space than a recording of a symphony, and will compress much better.

so, if i run my symphony through the lossless compression and i'm only able to compress it by 1%, that means i've got data in 99% of the possible places there could be data.

that's a dense track...

so, you think you got a phat track, yo? see how far you can compress it. if your track is really phat, you're looking at 70%. but 99%? that's fucking ridiculous.
