QUOTE (Kohlrabi @ Jan 29 2013, 15:41)  Is there a reason for not putting this new version out on CD or iTunes? What?! Try and sell a "new and improved" version on the same format that's quieter than the original?!?!?! This is the best excuse for new hi-res formats - you can fix your previous mastering mistakes without ever admitting you even made a mistake. Cheers, David. |

You set me thinking - sometimes more "remastering" is better, and sometimes going from more to less sounds strange when you're used to more. Of course, there are limits!
Check out the samples in this thread... http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=99166 ...I prefer (a), but then I heard (a) first. Yet if I heard a radio station, or genre complication CD, include a track sounding exactly like (a), I'd find that sound to be totally weird and jarring - I'd expect one of (b)-(e) on a compilation CD, and (f) on the radio. Cheers, David. |
