Issue with dynamic range database

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 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.
********************************************************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.

sugarboober, 
What was used to get file from record (vinyl)? No mention. So how you can draw such conclusion - dynamic meter is false? 

It was mentioned. However, that only validates the authors point, it does not invalidate it.  The online dynamic range data base is user generated. We can be confident the digital values are accurate as digital systems are consistent at a macro level. Analog playback systems are not. Rumble, poor equalization, poor turntable set up, will all lead to exaggerated numbers not representative of the music. This is the authors point which you seem to be missing.
