Overall: @Schminnte: Good article, but what makes "Sonicstate" and "Create digital music" reliable sources? Onegreatjoke (talk) 23:23, 22 September 2023 (UTC)

@Onegreatjoke: I would consider both sites ran by subject matter experts. CDM is a respected blog ran by Peter Kirn, who has contributed to Make, Computer Music, Macworld and Keyboard. He gave a talk at TED@BCG Berlin and is the author of Real World Digital Audio, published by Peachpit. As for Sonicstate, it is a musical site ran by Nick Batt which primarily focuses on product reviews. Batt has been a journalist for a while, and has been featured by Yamaha (twice), MusicTech and MusicRadar. He was interviewed by NAMM for their oral history collection and is the recipient of an Ivor Novello Award. Hope this clears up anything! Schminnte (talk • contribs) 06:58, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
