    Mastering: an A/B comparision

    Hey Kids, I put up a lil 2 minute clip of not mastered vs. Mastered. A pro with very big credentials did this, he does mainly classical. 2 clips of Danse Macabre Obviously, the best way to do an A/B doesnt involve mp3s on Soundclick :D Its a lot more subtle being classical music. The...

    Digital Clipping: So What?

    Obsession: Gothic/fusion crossover thingy

    This is a lil hard to explain, so I guess I wont. Its loosely based on an obscure work by an obscure composer ( Ysaye), who was a violinist ( and my teachers teacher).
