Have you made any observations or reached any conclusions regarding the Hybrid format of 5.75.7G?
What I mean to ask is - is this format effective and useful for the majority of users? For some users? For you personally?
At this point - is it still considered experimental?
Hybrid is what I use for OFv3, which is 5.75.7G. I use it continually. Others have used it to overcome bouts of resistance. It's very effective at what it does.
I don't know if Shannon is still considering only producing masked and ultrasonic. I hope not.
For $114.95
Shannon produces...
2 masked tracks, 1 silent track, 2 hybrid tracks in MP3
2 masked tracks, 1 silent track, 2 hybrid tracks in FLAC
Also, he needs a drive large enough to store all this digital information.
That is a lot of work for 1 person!!
Yep. Thanks for pointing out the obvious.
That doesn't change the fact that hybrid is more effective for some people such as myself and for some that run into a rough patch of resistance. So again, I hope that a Shannon doesn't discontinue the hybrid format.
My apologies if I offended you!! Yes, I was pointing out the obvious, some people don't realize the value we are getting for what we are paying.
In my defense, I wasn't aware that Shannon was thinking about ending the hybrid format.
As I understand it, Shannon questioned whether or not the hybrid format would exceed a person's ability to decode and decipher all of the information at this level of technology. Theoretically, hybrid is 2x more powerful because it provides 2x the input. I believe that it's more than 2x more power and I believe that consecutive hybrid loops provide a non linear boost.
The hybrid format has a place in the arsenals of many users, including myself. Even users for who it isn't the preferred format are seeing its benefit in a crunch. So, I'll continue to defend its production. I'm well aware of Shannon's work load and I'm well aware of what we're getting for what I consider to be a very reasonable price. I'm appreciative of that and I'm appreciative of Shannon's drive to build the best scripting technology possible. Because of that, I will continue to support IML and will continue to promote his work outside of this forum for those who are open to this type of thing.
With that said, all is well and there are no hard feelings on this end.
