Scale the Summit's "Master" Fail, Ths is what we can expect now, I guess. Options

[Engelsstaub]

I (thankfully) don't listen to this band but I have Prosthetic Records on my Facebook due to a few others on their roster that I appreciate.

Here's a screenshot of what these dumbasses submitted to the label as their "master." Is anyone else shocked that any record company would accept this as normal?



...I guess we can expect this sort of "professionalism" from the recording industry these days.

@OP:

Sigh.

My comment that the record industry has some people who are even more kooky than you appear to be is hardly unfounded. But to misconstrue this as meaning nothing offered up in this thread by people in the business is nothing short of laughable, and I mean of the snorting variety.

So I'll ask you again, plainly, who said a response from a professional at a record company was not acceptable? You've rattled off on this more than once and now it's time for you to get called out on it. What will come next from you, that it was said but magically edited away as if it never happened? Yes, it's a great conspiracy.

Until you can demonstrate the audible harm of creating vinyl from redbook, your entire premise is essentially based on nothing. Records may or may not have been pressed from redbook, even redbook from audio cd-r. Aside from your hollow belief that it shouldn't be this way, please explain why anyone interested in audible sound quality should care.

Seriously greynol: I think it's admin intervention-time or something. Get a different mod in here because as I already amply demonstrated, you absolutely reek of an irrationally one-sided bias and confrontational attitude that defies the definition of moderator.

What's "laughable" is that you proclaimed that I was "making shit up" and I demonstrated that I was not and now you're playing more games.

Me: (Speaking of sweeping BS statements you refuse to moderate) That's acceptable, but a response from a a professional at a record company is not Then we resort to "if I only had a nickel for every person in the record business who didn't understand digital audio as well as the average HA contributor..." ...in the same post even.

You: In the same post?!? Now I know you're just making shit up.

Me quoting you from the same post: "AFAIC, opinions about what constitutes professionalism from a non-professional should be dismissed...if I only had a nickel for every person in the record business who didn't understand digital audio as well as the average HA contributor... "

...very plain who's full of shit before you made me quote it two or three times. But hey: my times of no value either

Yeah, you can keep playing it like this wasn't your cheap-assed way of trying to discredit an actual quote from an actual insider in the business because it's the only one in the entire thread. Nobody else has crap except for "This happens all the time and BTW vinyl sucks anyway!" IS THIS ACCEPTABLE TO YOU? You and Arny here are backing it up as truth. Demonstrate or go home.

I do not have to explain to you why you should care about whether LPs are cut from CD-Rs or not. If you don't care than f___ off and let me speak to anyone that does. Your incessant need to butt in and bully regular posters, through typical snark and condescension, on topics in which you admit you lack interest is ridiculous. ALL of it. ...especially in light of the fact that you can't even moderate the most obvious BS statements because, even though they're ridiculously over-the-top and untrue, they agree with your own prejudices. You've made it perfectly clear to me and everyone else here in the past few years that you don't like vinyl. Cool. I even accept that yours and Arny's are good reasons not to like it. What's not cool is that you're such a zealot that you feel this need to keep harassing people about a medium you despise even after you've very plainly shown yourself to be full of ten times the very "shit" you accuse someone else (not even a GD moderator) being ful of.

As to whether I should demonstrate whether there is audible harm creating vinyl from CD: IRRELEVANT. There may be no harm in it but I, and the one professional I've spoken to thus far in the recording industry, would like it done from a better source since it's more than feasible. Now go ahead and pick at the word "better" instead of keeping this on my topic (because Lord Greynol has license to shit in others' threads if he doesn't like the subject matter.) Why don't you go ahead and demonstrate it since you're the one hung up on it? I just wanted to know what the norm is...but hey: tell me what I can talk about. Better yet, have a conversation with yourself and I'll just read.
