Hey DrJustice, I hear what you’re saying Exclamation

Thanks for the link. It’s good to read that many music listeners are voicing their objection to overly compressed recordings.

I’m celebrating in part by playing the “Moving Pictures” CD by Rush. Plenty of dynamic range in this digital recording Exclamation Cool

I'd luv it if the Loudness Wars came to an end. One of the nice things about living in a communist dictatorship like Norway is that we have 3 channels of state owned television with no commercial breaks. Every time I watch a programme on commercial TV I almost get heart palpitations every time there's a commercial break, due to the incredible jump in volume...

Do those words symbolise "Marshall Of Mass Destruction?"

Heheh, that was referring to this post.

It gets confusing with all the semi-synchronicity going on. Very Happy

I never really compress my final mixes. Perhaps a little bit, but mostly it's to bring up the overall gain without sacrificing dynamic range.
