    Cheeky Reqest

    I realise it's a bit cheeky asking for you to take the time to listen to this, since I've not been on the board and given anybody else any feedback for a long while; but i just wondered if anyone could have a listen to this excerpt and tell me what they think. I thought I'd get my old school...

    Mono Mixes

    With music released in the 60s, I've noticed that a lot of people say they much prefer the mono mixes of many classic albums. I realise that an element in this is the fact that a lot of the stereo mixes have drums and bass panned far left and all the vocals over to the right, and things like...

    Vinyl

    When playing albums on my record deck I seem to be getting a quiet pre-echo. Its not noticable during the songs but you can hear it in the silence just before each track begins. Can anyone help me cure the problem. Cheers
