Well you know what Henry? I don't CARE if you all think I'm nuts. I'll keep on posting about topics I believe in, because if I reach through to just ONE person, it was worth ALL the ridicule and turned backs I get on this "professional" audio board!!

Hank: I post legitimate audio-related items here, like my demands that AC/DC's unremastered back catalog be made available again, and no one has any input!
That's what makes me ask: "Do folks think I'm nuts on here?" |

I have all the inputs I routinely need, and if I need more, I hire a larger studio. This is not a very effective platform for that kind of "demand". Collectively "we" have no real leverage on that issue, and in fact, musical tastes of the participants here are sufficiently varied that some of us neither own nor care to listen to recorded AC/DC, great as they are, and they are. (I presented them in concert in Austin a long time ago at AWHQ. The recordings suck in comparison to the live delivery. Cue Mr. Dorsey...)

Hank:
I am lucky to be alive at this point in history. It allowed me to be exposed to great music of many genres, and to be able to hear it the way it was meant to be. All I'm trying to do is to make sure "the way it was meant to be heard" remains available for future generations. When I meet someone whose kid - born after 2000 - has developed an appetite for their parents turntable and LP collection, it tickles me with joy and hope. When I spot original CD releases of my favorite artists in the bin at Goodwill or the used section at the library, I feel "my gain, someone elses loss!" I recently scored, online, a copy of the very first ever CD release of Van Halen's 1984 album(made in Germany!) With that CD I intend to make sure the unborn will be able to hear 1984 as I did back in '84 for the first time! Same goes for my original CDs of "brothers in Arms" and Mac's "Rumours". Are they the same as the LPS? No. But damn close. This matters to not just me, and I intend to get the word out as much as possible. |

Well Neil - how does it feel to meet someone who actually gives a care about our legacy acts(pre 1995 music)?
I'll listen to a first release record(or CD) of Dire Straits over a 4" 3watt speaker before I EVER listen to a "digitally remastered" reissue of them over a pair of 10" Boston Acoustics towers at 100watts! Because I'm that f___ing PRINCIPLED about the matter, got it? |

... Well Neil - how does it feel to meet someone who actually gives a care about our legacy acts(pre 1995 music)? There's no reason to think you give a ****. You're just a whining troll. And you're doing bugger all to resolve this latest whine you have. You're just whining. I'll listen to a first release record(or CD) of Dire Straits over a 4" 3watt speaker before I EVER listen to a "digitally remastered" reissue of them over a pair of 10" Boston Acoustics towers at 100watts! Because I'm that f___ing PRINCIPLED about the matter, got it? So that's what passes for "principled" in that tiny trolling pea-brain of yours? Do you really think any gives a **** about your imaginary protests by using crappy speakers? Well, there's definitely a pattern to your trolling. Either in this newsgroup, or somewhere else, you post a complaint. Typically, the complaint involves abject cluelessness and/or whining. Nobody gives a ****, and you may get no reply. Then you get petulant and impatient, and you either repeat your troll, or whine that nobody's answering your trolling. Because nobody gives a ****. After a little more kookdancing, you get a response, and the real purpose for your trolling is revealed. You want people to agree with you. You have some gripe, or some gross misunderstanding of something, and all you want is for people to tell you you're right. You apparently have a very low level of self-worth, and you want others to validate your kookery. You don't really care about whatever the **** it is you're whining about. You didn't really care to figure out your imaginary file problem, for instance. When anyone with the understanding you lack, suggested real ways to evaluate and troubleshoot, you gave them ****, told them you were right and they were wrong, insulted them, and then came more whining about your imaginary problem. There's nobody here that will get old AC/DC recordings released in whatever format you prefer. Many people here couldn't give a ****, and many others just aren't the right people to whine to. But you don't give a ****; you're not trying to get the music rereleased, you're trying to whine and have your ass kissed. When that doesn't happen, more kookish whiny trolling will ensue, no doubt. Why don't you **** off and find some other sandbox to **** in, and grow a sense of self worth so you won't be annoying complete strangers who don't give a **** by demanding validation from them? This is not rec.kisskmanswhineyass.troll. You're full of ****. You're a ****-head troll. |

Neil do you have DAW software so you can both hear and see graphically the effects of so-called remastering.
As far as I know, when an album first goes to CD it is not considered a "remaster" - whether it be originally from LP or entirely native digital. Taking a scratchy acetate from 1947, importing into digital, and removing the clicks and pops, and EQing it is not remastering either - it is digital RESTORATION. Remastering - whether done in the analog or digital domains - means changing the character of a piece - whether done dramatically or subtlely, in whatever combination of EQ, dynamics, removal or addition of reverb or echo, etc. Such manipulation can be done globally(to an existing finished song), or to the individual tracks which are then remixed together into the finished product. In effect you are creating a NEW master - hence "remaster". It is the activity in the paragraph above that I vehemently oppose, especially since most of what is done is to increase the average level of the song, which implies that much of the original dynamics must be lost in order to achieve that. |

I have PRINCIPAL. Ya hafta agree with me; it makes me feel like a man. I wil never listen these classics on compact disc until they can guarantee that the CD will not spontaneously burst into flames, releasing the indelible green ink, as soon as I try to "rip" the audio to my Advent cassette deck. Always with Dolby B for recording but NO DOLBY for playback, because I am PRINCIPALED. What are you, dilettantes who don't support tha integrity of tha original recordings? If so, delete the "rec" in the name of this froup, because you're definitely wrecked. And only with auction free thirty-ott-six-gauge speaker wires, with tha auction sucked outa tha copper by certified underage virgins (I know you're used to sixteen or more, sorry we only have eight) from Memphis, Woodstock, Greenwich Village, Laurel Canyon, or Liverpool. I have PRINCIPALS. By the hour. |
