<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was taking it easy....considering the crowd....my
playlist gets me some odd stares if you show up in my shop unexpected. LOL I
like all kinds of stuff but I lean pretty hard towards the heavier stuff. It's
odd when my teenage daughter routinely rambles through my CDs and dowloads
looking for treasure (she recently hit the teenage stage where she discovered
the color black and the world "sucks".) </FONT></DIV>

follow.</FONT></DIV>

style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><BR><BR>As an ex muscian I
have recorded about 25 original songs and the interesting thing is that my
recording time frame spans the cross over of analog to digital, that is
1985 to about 1995.</SPAN></FONT> <FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><BR><BR>Led Zeps "Whole Lotta
Love" is not record groove bleed over, but is called tape print through.
That's where a freshly recorded magnetic impression transfers through the
back side of the tape onto a place it does not belong-one reel revolution.
To alleviate this tapes are to be stored "tails out" which the recording
engineer obviously forgot to do...in 1969. So that has to be the coolest
recording accident of all time. <BR><BR>I have known many home listening
"audiophiles" in my life, some I would call friends. I was always amazed
at the money that they spent on their home systems that was at times more
than what it would cost to put in a "studio" system. As a professional
musician and a professional sound man, the entire idea of recording in a
studio was to make your guitar or the drums sound like YOUR guitar, or
your drums. When I stood in front of my <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">Marshall</st1:City></st1:place> tube amp cranked up to 11, I
wanted that sound on my final product-be it a record or digital recording.
(Pehaps I will discuss guitar tube amps and the reason for their existence
at a later date). I cannot begin to explain how difficult that task
actually is. I will say it is much easier now days.</SPAN></FONT> <FONT
face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><BR><BR>Analog recoding
studios really sounded good. 2" wide 24 track tape spinning at 30 inches
per second. That is what it took to keep the tape noise level low and to
get the most accurate reproduction AND each machine and tape brand had to
be calibrated before each recording session to ensure accuracy. Remember,
what you are listening to is what the muscian wants you to hear, so
audiophiles and listeners do not even get a vote yet on sound
quality.</SPAN></FONT> <FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><BR>The 2" tape 24 track
"Master"changed my guitar sound a bit. Then that was mixed down to
stereo 1/2 track 1/4" tape format called "Half Track Master". That change
my guitar sound a bit more, but still okay. The Half Track Master then is
sent to a pressing plant to make the actual vinyl record. First you had to
find a pay an expert "Master-er" to get to vinyl. This guy held you and
your recording by the Nards. Why? Because analog vinyl technolgy was so
screwed up. The Half track master that sounded great in the recording
studio had to be Re-equalized by this record master-er to compensate for
his equipment and how he knew it would change your recording-that you just
spent $5000 on. It also had to be compressed (musically not like MP3-more
later) so it would not violate groove and needle physical capabilities. If
the Master-man sucked or did not care, so did your record. If you were a
big time rock star (I was not), then you could hire Bob Ludwig, and he
would make 5-6 wax pressings so the musician could hear what he changed
and choose what they liked best. Me I had to take what I could get. In
reality very few muscians ever approved of their vinyl recordings because
they sounded so different from what they put down in the
studio.</SPAN></FONT> <FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><BR>Yet old audiophiles with
their Harmonically distorted tube amps and super crappy damping factors,
needles that once again change the sound and wear the grooves down,
changing the sound, and worst of all "colored" speakers tailored so any
fool got a decent balance of bass and highs, claim superiority-calling
this "warmth".</SPAN></FONT> <FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><BR><BR>Digital Mixers, with
digital recording and digital media by far produce the truest reproduction
of what the muscian intended. What I discovered when I recorded digital
was that what used to sound "full-warm" was in fact much less accurate.
The "full-warm" sound that was missing was harmonic crap that filled up
the spaces in the mix. What you could then do with digital is add more
musical parts to fill the gaps and you could hear all the detail.
Listen to Led Zep records, then listen to a Led Zep CD which was taken
straight from the Half Track stereo master. One thing that you will notice
right away on CD is how much reverb is present on the CD that you cannot
hear on a vinyl record. I used to think as I bought CDS that the CD has
reverb added on top of the original recording. Not so, it is just that it
is 2X louder because the vinyl cannot reproduce such a subtle
sound.</SPAN></FONT> <FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><BR><BR>Digital compression
like MP3 .....is DATA compression that is uncompressed before it becomes
ear capable analog. Records "Squashed" compressed music volume for needle
physical reasons, Radio uses "infinite" volume compression-to appear
louder than other stations and to keep from violating broadcast
bandwidth-even worse....but hey, my brother thinks radio sounds great...he
must be an audiophile..... <BR><BR>Also...On Monday I am going back to the
recording studio..first time in 12 years. I am making the studio pull out
and dust off their antique 1/2 track analog machine (an the studio had to
calibrate it-as usual). I have about 10-11 songs that were mastered a on
1/2 track tape and guess what..I and going to burn some digital copies. My
first album was so F-up by the vinyl record that I look forward to
hearing what I actually recorded in 1985......</SPAN></FONT> <FONT
