Shannon's Journal Discussion

[THolt]

"Beast 8 has a Minimum Time Of Singular Expression (MTOSE) of fully 20 minutes. That means that, to express the whole script at least once, it requires 20 minutes of exposure. Definitely time to re-compress. I like to keep the MTOSE down to a maximum of 5-10 minutes if possible."

Shannon,
Will this result in lower listening times for 6G programs if everything goes right?

I think I forgot to put this into perspective.

If it were not compressed to the degree that it is, that 20 minutes would be 16 hours plus of audio. It would take more than 16 hours of listening to hear the entire script just once. That's how beastly long the damned thing is.

So the fact that it's 20 minutes long and still comprehensible is amazing, but for my purposes, 20 minutes is the outer limits. I have to achieve the goals of the 6G prototype within 20 minutes, or the test fails.

So to answer your question, yes. Higher compression means faster input means lower listening times. Although that by itself is not the reason why it would require lower listening times; there are two other things along with compression that I use that, taken as a whole, result in these very low listening time requirements.

Wow 16 hours in 20 minutes. That would save us a lot of time in terms of listening of you are successful in the tests.

Reaction after reading this whole thing: Deeee-ammm!!

Yeah it's impressive isn't it ?

I would say. It would be intense to listen to
