Issue with dynamic range database

Bukanona, he mastered the CD and vinyl. He knows what he is doing.


Miller carbon he states that the digital version sounds crisper and more dynamic even if the numbers do not. Based on some of the blowups it looks like he needed a rumble filter and probably better RIAA processing input to output. Without controlling for variables the vinyl version of the dynamic range has no meaning which I think was the point he was making.

sugarboober,
he said that vinyl and cd versions was the same - he gave the same digital file to manufacture vinyl.
so he didn't know what he was doing from very beginning.

It is not something you can modify so, who cares?

mijostyn, usually engineer takes into account vinyl media. No loud passages near the middle, a little less compression, some extra tunes sometimes. More less targeted to listening at home not in the car or shopping centre.

********************************************************He knew exactly what he was doing. He wanted the same presentation from both the CD copy and the vinyl copy. This is not a young guy. He has been around since vinyl. There is no reason why the two can't be the same if you want them to be the same.


You are completely missing the point. They should have the same dynamic range. They do not. The dynamic range as measured by the dynamic range meter is false. It is not accurate. It cannot be used effectively to compare CD and vinyl.  You have not presented any ideas that invalidate this premise.
