Hans Beekhuyzen's job is to sell snakeoil. It's kind of sad these guys on the Youtube sound so convincing to those who don't undertand and know digital audio well.
Mmm I may not, but I have no interest in believing in something with no evidence, just physical proof that 24 bit is absolutely better than 16 bit depth, regardless of human abilities to tell the difference.
Likewise I am not a high-end hi-fi audiophile, and my interest in pointing out the glaring flaws of the original post is purely scientific.
I believe the relative factor is still not of your understanding here. The idea that the change from normal music to the maximum is present in going from 8 to 16bit,
Even there most people never use the range in record broad music, but narrower music interest as well as home and public theater do use difference of this and more. And on recording that comes from rock and such still have a difference that could be widened with 24 bit.
The use of other techniques is still sound dampening by some degree, and although I wouldn't have this huge expensive push toward things that are not really making a difference for your hi-fi music, I personally don't see such a ridiculous hostility toward larger bit depth technology and not utilizing it to a further degree.
The military and metal detection use sampling above 1gigahertz (1,000,000 hertz) in order to produce accurate measurements of sound waves around 1/10 of that, or 100,000 htz which are used for echo location and for slowing down of the recording. The latter which could actually help a lot with pitch control and redefinition.
Also more advanced techniques for algorithm coding to shrink the size of such recording after first making it, including lossy compression of dense music that has as you say "more information than nessicary for human hearing " could be used down the road to keep files the same size as lossless 16 bit and have the same quality, with possibly more relevant information. And even compressed smaller, lossy, and still sound the same because of the information gained from the curves and the algorithmic curve prediction for frequencies of sound being predicted, due to 4 times the recording points. This can not be improved without wider acceptance of 24 bit depth recording and even consumption.
Although considered irrelevant by some here, no one has provided evidence that the future is not brighter with 24 bit depth, mark my words, 24 bit will be used to noticeably make audio better. And as of 2021/2020 there is no longer a compelling counter that we shouldn't use it.
I was messaged by someone that said it themselves: some recordings are only available in 24 bit depth, there is plenty of storage for the increase, there is less need for dithering and other labor techniques, less mixing nessicary, and a broader range for deliberate manipulation of the sounds.
Cannons and such sounds, bass boosting without using amplification, and public theater explosion sounds can also accept an improvement. I don't understand all of this yet but I will unfollow this forum because I have reduced the responses from the majority helping my understanding and contributing, to jabs at my reputation and blatant "no you" and "you're wrong" "you knownothing" statements, which besides being unhelpful and far from the truth are damaging to the spirit of education and science.
