South Philly. No, really. Hissing occurs in the upper registers and usually means the recording has beeen mostly left alone allowing a more natural sound in that region. Vocals are more natural, symbals ring truer, an openess occurs surpressed by Dolby treatment which also introduces phase shift. Usually more dynamic too. I'll live with the tape hiss as opposed to the un-natural sound of processors.
Where does that hiss on the master come from?
I was recently listening to a remastered version of physical graffiti and I was amazed at the amount of noise it had on it - I mean its remastered! Then I listened to Aja which has absolutely no noise in the back. I asked a very knowledgable friend why the remastering couldn't get out all that noise and he said that the noise must be in the master. My question is how does noise get on the master? Thank You!
