Sounds so good. Interesting, horns (which I’m almost sure we’re added late in the mix) sound like they’re recorded very differently than the principal voice and instruments which are forward, sharply defined, and alive. The horns are recessed and flat relative to the rest. Not bad but different. Not that I care or anything... Just never used to consistently notice stuff like this until I started hanging out with you dudes…. They say some stereo owners can be faulted to listening to their gear more than they do their music. I think I may in fact be guilty once in awhile of listening to recordings and production more than to the music itself. Sometimes. Mostly I’m lost in the music. Like yesterday I had my own personal early heavy rock fest. What a trip on this stereo. |
Ok, technical question time. Are you using a Degritter? How many records do you clean in a session? Do you clean records in rapid succession (one after another) or do you wait a bit between runs? How long do you leave the machine off between sessions? Like overnight, couple of days, a week? Do you pre-clean records in another gadget like a Spin Clean? I have one but am curious about other people's experience. |
