With iggys early music the effects is intended :) I you want to do this one must single out cases where the practice is detrimental to the form of music the mastering is supposed to serve . Remastering is the easy target , there you already have the original artist and producers intentions in the original . Quisling is an old word ,actually invented by British ww2 propaganda , you are not only a single instance traitor but actively collaborates with the fascists invading forces to your own people's demise , wikipedia has some articles . I thought that word was still in use ? It have stayed in some languages . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97545 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
