Shannon's Journal Discussion

[Shannon]

Is the hybrid format an experiment for now or will it be included for all subs going forward? (sounds amazing, btw)

It is no longer experimental. It will probably be standard... but, we may have to eliminate some "features" because this is getting ridiculous. I now have to create five different tracks, in two different encoding formats, per stage of each title? That's a but much.

Easy fix!! Eliminate the individual Ocean Surf and Trickling Stream tracks.
Keep ultrasonic as a stand alone, so we can sleep or go about our day in silence.

Absolutely not. I don't respond well to ultrasonic at all, even when played low. I respond best to Trickling Stream, played at a low volume.

I told Shannon to let us make our own playlist of ultrasonic/mask and to stay focused on his work.

He still went ahead and created the hybrid. Obviously to get faster results for those of us that want everything NOW...

It's Shannon's call. I'm still for making your own playlist as you so desire.
Ditch the hybrids and leave it up to us to decide how we want to listen.

It's not just faster results, but more powerful effect. This will help not just getting results faster but getting more results and overcoming resistance. It's important stuff. Not likely to ditch the hybrids. But I might ditch the FLACs, since they're what took up the majority of the 5.2 GB upload I did last night.
