Re: [SurroundSound] Re: PS3 SACD rips

Please share your knowledge:

Is there a method for direct conversion DFF mch -> DSF mch?

Korg Audiogate can handle DFF stereo -> DSF stereo with tagging support. Is this the only application for DSF tagging?

Thanks!

The following conversions can be done on PC for both stereo and mch
audio:

SACD ISO -> DFF [-> WAV/FLAC]
SACD ISO -> DSF -> DSD Disc
[WAV/FLAC ->] DFF -> authored SACD ISO
[]: lossy conversion

Not sure if DFF -> DSF / DSF -> DFF lossless transfers are possible
although I'd say yes.
