Customer Review

There are a number Rezensente who complain about the lack of sound quality. Then again, there is, I suppose at times fans who have come to nothing Birdy and this contest.
In the discussion, a look in the medical record, how far the virus has spread loudness. Fear of what it says?

Yes, guessed correctly: The dynamics has been completely accused of loudness to be devoured.
This is reflected heavily on the sound quality down, as the album is, with its high degree of compression not only free from fine dynamics, details and any nuance. Nor is there suspense or internal logics of volume changes in the songs. In a sample editor, the songs look like massive blocks. In this context, we speak of "Brick-walled Music". Since almost pushes each peak to the volume limit, it also leads to unmistakable distortions and clippings.
As is almost everything you could still advance can be described as music been mutilated and cut paths. It can be described as sound-zombie. Lifeless shell that still sounds are unpleasant sounds, but has no heartbeat. All times was present at live music was cut off, compress, manipulated and scaled. What remains is a clay slurry, whose food is inedible.

By the way, my system will cost several thousands. My system is ideally suited to breathe that sound Zombies life. But succeeds only in moderation. Who wants to know what is dynamic, which I empfhele almost all of Tracy Chapman and Jennifer Warnes "Hunter", and Mark Knopfler does not bend. Even if the music should not like it, you can at this point sure how times can listen to a CD. Or the Olympus quality and especially good music, the Dali Vol. 3 opens eyes and especially your ears. Otherwise, with a few exceptions, each SACD / ShmCD.
As for me but next to this loudness mischief still annoys (here can least you still intent impute), is the craftsmanship inability of the recording studio. In Title 8, the first 10 are sec scratched striking. Then it goes on, however, largely covered by voice dan. How can you work only so sloppy ???
The title Blue Jeans is deposited the picking a guitar at the beginning with an enormous noise level. Every time the guitar is purely controlled the violent noise comes with associated.
I'm sending this tonal mutilated CDs back: "product shortage"

Conclusion: Hasty production with tonal pay freeze which the Mixmeister heard back for rectification. Or should order not only.
Debt is but unfortunately not the recording studio. We have reached a point at which the loudness delusion echoes like a marching order from the boardrooms of corporations plate in the studios. And the sound and master engineers follow the on vital hunt for orders obediently.
This bustle can be commanded only by the customer stop.
