Leaked LVMPD audio reveals how the mainstream media is hiding crucial details about last Sunday’s shooting at the Route 91 music festival in Las Vegas
(INTELLIHUB) — Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department audio captured during last Sunday’s active shooting at Mandalay Bay resort and casino reveals how officers confirmed that there were at least two shooters firing down onto the crowd of concertgoers attending the Route 91 music festival.
After a series of fully-automatic gunfire popped off and people started getting struck by flying rounds a team of law enforcement officers and another ‘element’ stormed the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay it was feared that there was an additional shooter on the 29th floor.
“We have a four-man team up here and we have another element moving to us. We will need the 29th floor,” one officer said. “It sounds like it’s confirmed, there are at least two shooters with fully-automatic weapons.”
Additionally, the audio recordings also reveal that a black Chevy dually pickup truck fled the parking lot during all of the commotions and that an older white male who was wearing fatigues and carrying a black bag was spotted retreating into a white RV by the Tropicana and the Motel 6. Pedestrians said that the man came from the area of the shooting.
Pedestrians said that the man came from the area of the shooting and a team eventually converged on the white RV.
At one point, a police car was commandeered by an unknown suspect while the two elements on the 32nd floor were cleared for 335 Zebra’s approach to the northernmost room.
“This is 335 Zebra. I need to know if we have that floor evacuated other than our suspects. We got […] sniper going up,” a voice called out over the radio.
That’s when 720 called in an confirmed he had a 12 man element entering the east side of the Mandalay Bay.
[End Audio]
It’s important to note that there may be a total media blackout and that other hotels may have been targeted.
Keep in mind, the New York Times failed to report the hard details in the conglomerate piece titled “Chaos at a Concert and a Frantic Search at Mandalay Bay.”

Hey - maybe Paddock was executed by a Klingon sniper from a cloaked bird of prey hovering outside his hotel room?
#57. To: nolu chan (#40)
2. Paddock shot for 10 minutes. He had lots of rifles and lots and lots of ammo. And then he just stopped shooting.
Simple explanation:
He ran out of ammo.
Oops!
Now about that Klingon bird of prey - Were there any related flashes or spatial distortions visible in the cab driver video?
#58. To: nolu chan (#17)
The echo time differences would only indicate the shots were from different vantage points aimed in different directions. It would say nothing of the number of shooters, one or two.
Actually it says quite a bit if you bother to examine what was actually recorded in audio where it *sounds like* two weapons are firing simultaneously.

#63. To: VxH (#62)
"Used correctly, digital technology can eliminate generation loss."
Only if you use all-original tracks.
If people are downloading and doctoring their own digital files, you will have generational loss due to compression artifacting. The same thing happens each time you edit a JPG picture.
If you edit in lossless files, you won't have generational loss. But most people don't do that outside a studio setup.
#64. To: Tooconservative (#63)
Compression artifacting doesn't magically create "muzzle flashes" that continue after the allegedly associated gunfire stops.
Meanwhile - the audio data says what it says: ONE shooter.
Why aren't the alleged "multiple shooters" firing at the same time - are they being polite and taking turns?

A time line with links to the associated video/audio should be relatively easy to produce - especially given that most (if not all) cell phones update their time automatically - and the associated video will be timestamped accordingly.
But don't hold your breath for the F.B.I. to produce it, or anything of value...

Not only that, but in a crowd of 22 thousand at the concert, you would expect hundreds (certainly) or thousands (probably) to be holding up smartphones to record it. The videos could be synced to the action on stage and you could rather easily derive a proximate location in the crowd from which it was recorded.
So I think there may be some "rich" A/V/location data to be gleaned and sifted. I can only assume the FBI is doing that but we have no reporting on it.

I see a bit of eyewitness account is coming out about the supposed suicide note. I mentioned it earlier on another thread.
CBS:
| A note found in the hotel room of the man who shot into a crowd from his perch in a Las Vegas high-rise included hand-written calculations about where he needed to aim to maximize his accuracy and kill as many people as possible. In an interview airing Sunday on "60 Minutes," three police officers who stormed Stephen Paddock's hotel room in the Mandalay Bay hotel tell correspondent Bill Whitaker new details about the deadliest mass shooting in modern American history. The officers were the first to see Paddock's body and the arsenal of weapons and ammunition he had stockpiled. Officer David Newton from the Las Vegas Police Department's K-9 unit said he noticed a note on the shooter's nightstand once officers breached the room. He said the note was located near one of the windows that Paddock had smashed with a hammer to fire onto the crowd below with high-powered semi-automatic rifles outfitted to increase their rate of fire. "I could see on it he had written the distance, the elevation he was on, the drop of what his bullet was gonna be for the crowd," Newton said. "So he had that written down and figured out so he would know where to shoot to hit his targets from there." Paddock's hotel suite was on the 32nd floor of the hotel, looking down on the crowd across the street. More than 20,000 people were attending the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival when Paddock opened fire. The crowd was approximately 400 yards away, well within range of the expensive custom-made rifles found in his suite. |

What's the difference between Reverb and Echo?
If you must know, echo is a return of the same sound after it has bounced off a distant object.
Reverb is created electronically to mimic echo, but it originates from the same speakers being used as your source.

[nc #47] It means you have a vivid imagination or a third or fourth generation tape.[Vxh #55] The principle of "generations" doesn't apply to reproduction of digital video super genius.
It does when the people creating the different versions are of unknown identity or motivation or reliability. The later generations are of unknown veracity. Copying is not 100% acurate, and compression may be used for Youtube posting.
The super genius who presents your audio analysis identifies his masterpiece as being second generation. What was on the taxi driver's phone or whatever is the first generation. Unless he made his copy directly from her, he cannot produce a second generation. Assuming the Youtube video came directly from the taxi driver's phone, it would be second generation. Unless your super genius was using the taxi driver's recording device as his source, he did not even have second generation.

Your super genius says he did a second generation rendering, and as a result of his second generation rendition, he claims that the viewer cannot see the first flash.
As you claim generations are bullshit, please explain what your super genius is talking about.

Even that has compression artifacts. Recording HD video in raw uncompressed (lossless) format takes vast amounts of storage. No smartphone can do it. Nor can any handheld cameras that are affordable to consumers.
So even first-gen smartphones and consumer camcorders have some inevitable compression artifacts. And it only gets worse as you edit and recompress the video.

Bzzzt. Your anonymous internet source with the broken link is not indicative of a super genius response, but that of a pedestrian dullard.
In addition, the term you used was specifically reverb.
I do not get word definitions from an anonymous internet source unrelated to English usage. Anonymous Youtube word usage on the internet does not change actual meaning, nor does resort to a different word. I use a top notch expert source dictionary.
You explicitly used the term Reverb. You could have looked it up in a dictionary. Or you could DJ and you would learn the difference between reverb and echo.
Bzzzt. As you want to know the difference between reverb and echo, here follows the sourced expert lesson.
Reverb. n. an effect whereby the sound produced by an amplifier or an amplified musical instrument is made to reverberate slightly. · A device for producing such an effect.Reverberate. v. [intrans.] (of a loud noise) to be repeated several times as an echo: her deep booming voice reverberated around the room. · (of a place) appear to vibrate or be disturbed because of a loud noise: the hall reverberated with gaiety and laughter. · [trans.] archaic return or reecho (a sound) ....
Archaic very old or old-fashioned. · (of a word or style in language) no longer in everyday use but sometimes used to impart old-fashioned flavor.
The New Oxford American Dictionary, Second Edition, Oxford University Press, New York, 2005.
Usage of reverberation to indicate return or echo is archaic. In currently accepted English usage, it may mean a loud noise repeated several times as an echo, her deep booming voice reverberated around the room.

"There is an indication of the first flash that we can see in the video. It can't be seen probably in this rendering because I am doing a second generation rendering...."
His video is a screencap of him using the OpenShot video editor on a fairly modern Windows machine; this editor also runs on Linux and Macs. It takes a variety of video types as inputs (using the FFMpeg library to import them) including WebM (VP9), AVCHD (libx264), HEVC (libx265) and the usual MP3 and AAC audio types. OpenShot outputs to a variety of other formats (MPEG4, ogv, Blu-ray and DVD video, and Full HD videos).
I used DownloadHelper, a Firefox extension, to choose a version of the video to download. The choices were:
- 1280x720 - HD720 - MP4
- 480x360 - Medium - MP4
- 480x360 - Medium - WEBM
- 320x240 - Low - 3GPP
- 176x144 - Low - 3GPP
I grabbed the 720p H.264 version. Here are the video specs:
MPEG-4 (Base Media / Version 2): 17.5 MiB, 3mn 27s 1 Video stream: AVC 1 Audio stream: AAC Overall bit rate mode: Variable Overall bit rate: 707 Kbps Encoded date: UTC 2017-10-06 02:46:55 Tagged date: UTC 2017-10-06 02:46:55 gsst: 0
The video is only 513Kbps, 1280*720 (16:9), at 30.000fps, AVC (High@L3.1)(CABAC/ 1 Ref Frames). The audio is 192Kbps, 44.1KHz, 2 channels, AAC (LC).
Since it is a screengrab, we are definitely seeing a shrunk version of what the supergenius saw on his screen. I find it odd that he didn't include a finished version so people could see it at full resolution. At any rate, with a 720p 513Kbps H.264 video stream, you're lucky if you can see anything at all. That is really low quality video, especially for a night scene.
We really don't know what the original footage from the taxi driver's phone was. So necessarily, a shrunken version shown in a screencapped video of an editor and compressed heavily by YouTube is not considered first-generation material. For that, you need a lossless format which no smartphones support. So any first-gen original video is going to be 720p or 1080p h.264 video, in all likelihood. And it would have been 4Mbps - 12Mbps video, not this puny 513Kbps crapfest that we're seeing from YouBoob.
I am suspicious though. He could have just played a pixel-per-pixel original video and pointed at it with his mouse. Why the shrunken version and screencapped that way? It makes no sense if you want to accurately convey the original footage.
He might also have applied some filters to try to make those flashes more visible. We just don't know.
However it is entirely fair to discuss how this video has been recorded originally and the various stages of scaling and compression we are seeing. The use of the term first-generation or second-generation cannot be construed in the same way as we applied those terms to tape. But the cumulative effect of scaling and recompressing and screencapping cannot be denied, whatever term you choose to use to describe this degradation.
#92. To: Tooconservative (#91)

Correct. We are definitely not seeing the result of a bit for bit copying process. We are seeing the effects of multiple lossy processing.
#93. To: nolu chan (#92)
We could also just be seeing fakes.
Using advanced video processing software, you can do a lot of fake video. Using a tool like Nuke Studio, for instance. Or Nuke Non-Commerical and then you render your edits and just screencap the full playback. My point being, you can get incredibly powerful video editing and special effects generation using freely available software now. And if you have a big profitable YouTube channel, you can just buy the full Nuke Studio. You can look at this page to see how they used Nuke's compositing in the action scenes of Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes. There are literally hundreds of thousands of trained people in America who know how to use Nuke software. Not as many as Photoshop but still a lot. So you have a lot of talent out there to generate any and all kinds of fake videos.

Those AV tanks would need something a lot more higher in caliber than what Pollack had. He was an accountant and obviously not an engineer or physicist. :-)
I worked with a few anti terrorist physical engineers prior to 9/11 and they used to laugh at post commanders worry some sniper could take out their fuel farms and cause an explosion. They would explain that a puncture and spillage (these were smaller tanks than the AV tanks in question) were possible and even an incendiary would just cause a heck of a fire but doubtful an explosion.
I guess too many generals watched Rambo movies. :-)
