In 2011 it was certainly important to offer low quality modes. But transistor density has doubled more than twice since, and what was a new computer back then is considered the bottom end today. In relation, Repro today uses not much more CPU than what it was to run Diva in "fast" mode back then, or "great" with HD switched on. Also, we start with a MultiCore option for Repro-5 straight away, which, once it came to Diva made the low quality modes more or less surplus.aaron aardvark wrote:Urs,
I'm just brainstorming here. Even though I've been using Repro-1 for several months, I haven't spent loads of time turning the HQ option on and off. I remember Diva has 3 or 4 levels of sound quality. Not sure how feasible that would be for Repro-5, and have it done by yesterday
Therefore, like in Bazille, I think it isn't necessary to offer modes that I'd consider too much of a trade off. If anything, in future we might offer more extreme high quality modes for offline processing
