RE: "It is debatable whether 192/24 can capture the output of a high quality master tape"

It's quite simple: you listen to the output of the tape recorder directly and you listen to the output of the digital playback of a recording made previously from the tape recorder. If you hear a difference, then higher resolution digital gear is needed.

It could be that the resolution from a 30 IPS wide track tape master isn't good enough to show up problems with the digital gear. In this case, the test is a live microphone feed. This is a simple A - B test that compares apples to apples. The goal is to see whether or not digital recording is "perfect sound" or not.
