[22.5 - 25.3] : same disaster --------------------------------------- 3L File: D:\Temp\HQ test\[aoTuV MGX -q 6,00] Seminarist.wav 3L Rating: 2.2 3L Comment: I'm not sure for the moment, but the sibilance is also problematic here: distorted and unatural. Need ABX for confirmation. [22.5 - 25.3] apparently, voice is also unatural. Again, difference is more subtle and need ABX. Voice is more obviously distorted on 12.3 - 15.0 --------------------------------------- 4L File: D:\Temp\HQ test\[MP3 3.97a3 -V 2] Seminarist.wav 4L Rating: 3.0 4L Comment: sibilants are a bit slow (see 6R comments). Voice is also distorted on some parts (12.3 - 15.0 for exemple) --------------------------------------- 5L File: D:\Temp\HQ test\[MPC SV7 1.14 -q 5] Seminarist.wav 5L Rating: 3.0 5L Comment: sibilance is distorted (unatural). Less problematic than 2 first files, but more proncounced than the third one. Voice is distorted on 12.3 - 15.0, less than 4L --------------------------------------- 6R File: D:\Temp\HQ test\[MP3 3.97a3 -V 3] Seminarist.wav 6R Rating: 1.2 6R Comment: sibilant consonents are distorted, and 'slow' (~unsharp, chewing-gum, with remanance). Voice is distorted on many parts. --------------------------------------- ABX Results: Original vs D:\Temp\HQ test\[aoTuV MGX -q 5,99] Seminarist.wav 10 out of 12, pval = 0.019 Original vs D:\Temp\HQ test\[aoTuV MGX -q 5,50] Seminarist.wav 12 out of 12, pval < 0.001 Original vs D:\Temp\HQ test\[aoTuV MGX -q 6,00] Seminarist.wav 11 out of 12, pval = 0.003 Original vs D:\Temp\HQ test\[MP3 3.97a3 -V 2] Seminarist.wav 12 out of 12, pval < 0.001 Original vs D:\Temp\HQ test\[MPC SV7 1.14 -q 5] Seminarist.wav 10 out of 12, pval = 0.019 Original vs D:\Temp\HQ test\[MP3 3.97a3 -V 3] Seminarist.wav 11 out of 12, pval = 0.003
