By the way, I would never accuse Marc-André Hamelin of being tyrannical, but he has written a player-piano piece which is entitled Pop Music for the sole and simple reason that it's based on Pop goes the weasel, although I will spare you all any weasel words about it...

Originally posted by NatBalance View PostWow, thanks for having a listen Gongers, but be aware, is the muddled mess (and the details) to which you refer, solely to do with the volume levels? Each audio item should sound as if it is coming from near enough the same distance (bearing in mind the loud sections are compressed).
The perception of "distance" and spatialisation is NOT solely related to volume but lots of other things as well but you can't be arsed to consider them. (#419)
If you COMPRESS the audio you are likely to reduce the perception of spatialisation within the sound image (unless you really know how to do multi-band compression as well as geniuses like Dallas Simpson)

The first album was the link, BTW.I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
