That's what I've been learning.
There's no time for anything else... whether you like it or not, really.
I actually came here today to sort of address this but on another thread.
Also, nice to hear Andre speaking on the issue of the "loudness wars".
Destroyed dynamics, over-compression and brickwall limiting has RUINED
many a good album!
Digital clipping is harsh and in some cases [Metallica's Death Magnetic]
it makes things unlistenable. Ear fatigue. Even makes the behind your eyes
area hurt. No headphones for those kinds of records. The RHCP's Californication is
a lesser extreme example but those sizzles can still be heard AND felt.
Hopefully, the music industry has learned from that horrific 20+ year mistake.
