MOTM

A recent (unsigned) post asked for WAV files of MOTM VCO outputs, 
presumably for comparison with other VCO makes.  I would be interested 
to know whether anyone thinks that recordings suit this purpose very 
well.  Problems would surely dog this approach, vs. actually having the 
modules side-by-side in the same system and doing A-B listening tests.

The files being compared could have been produced with different 
sampling rates.  The recording levels most likely would have been 
different.  The psycho-acoustic effects of simply playing back the 
*same* recording at different levels of amplification can be 
significant.  If it is indeed reasonable to make comparisons this way, 
it seems to me that the recordings being compared would all have to have 
been made in the same studio with all parameters kept as equal as 
possible (as when Paul S. posts samples of different sounds for 
comparison).  Thoughts?

Thanks,
