Guest asshopper Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 its just only me or you people feel the same thing?? the sound quality of D.DRUM products are pretty bad, it sounds like only less than 96 kbps, the Scizoeffective and Radio album has great sound, but not Midi Miliz and Send in... send back, especially on Midi Miliz's Cream... cant even listen to it... though everybody thinks its one of the masters. i am very disappoint about these ripped off tracks and CDs, i cant even tell if they are good or not, i have to replace them from my player in 10 seconds... or its because of my ears? man~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MK Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 it's a sound that is meant to be. "...it's better than bad, it's good!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dj shed Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 obviously it did on purpose and their mastering is not that bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cujo Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 It's called distortion? some people actually do this on purpose???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pswede Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 I dont like the mastering of the new Delta Album, the last one was GREAT. I simply don't like the distorted/compressed sound of "Send In..Send Back". Btw, "Standby" is the best track on that CD IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cujo Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 well, who says it's the mastering that makes the compression and the distortion? Marcus could have intended this???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Soulhunter Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 De mastering of send in..send back is very bad indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cujo Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 Ok, so you are telling me you have heard the original tracks , and you have heard the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Psychedelic AllabertA Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 The sound of SISB is quite "dry", and I like it phat and juicy... But I have a friend who makes hard (should we say, brutal) techno and intentionally uses 8kHz sound effects and encodes his tracks in 96kbps )) It sounds very raw but also incredibly powerful... That means the low sound quality can be used well too (but in SISB it isn't used that well... you gotta know how Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cujo Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 Yes of course. any sounds quality can sound good, if the sound is made correctly and with the right intension!.. :-) i know some industrial people, who do this as well. instead of just distorting sounds, or the vocals,, whatever. they just lower the Khz,, and raise it again? then of course they tweak it with an EQ right after. but this sounds awesome :-) much better than a plain distortion filter.

Guest Cujo Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 Nobody ever said the MUSIC was bad. someone said the mastering was bad, and the sound quality. NOT the music!. that's another subject,, and it's a matter of taste. personally , i LOVE AUTHENTIK, i think Midi Miliz, are not very good.

Basilisk Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 i cant listen to the anomolie... it sounds just bad.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asshopper Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 ii totally agree with you guys on they are the greatest musicians and sound engineers, i love their other works, but just Midi Miliz and SISB... the sound quality are just dry, flat and no depth, if its their intension, i have no idea what for?? for better sound systems? help me out here... i would love you hear these trax on 192kbps, for goaheads, do you enjoy these trax on your speakers? for those Djs, are these trax on your play list? for me, i cant "appreciate" it too much, and wont be on my Dj list as well, for people who are enjoying them... please tell me how can i enjoy it as mush as i listen to Scizoeffective or Radio? cheers.

Guest Mescalinium Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 I just recently got SISB (on vinyl) so I havn't been able to determine the sound quality. However, I have D:drum 003, Authentik, and I think the mastering on this single is very good, much crisper than many other records I own. But I agree that the mastering on the new Anomolie EP is not as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Raider Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 I like the distorted sound, very much indeed... it works very well at live performances... and I believe X-Dream's new style has the very distorted style as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MK Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 Listen to SISB or Antistat on a proper system - on vinyl - it's phat & clear! Mind-blowing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cujo Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 Yes,,,, the new x-dream sound is very distortet. but now we are talking mastering.. NOT production..... yesterday , i asked about 3-4 different friends about what thye thought of the album.. they are not very technical, but they all agreed that the sound quality was not very good. 2 of them said the sound quality was like a poorly encoded mp3. they said the production of the music was good and all that. but this is about mastering. it has nothing to do with "DELTA" & Marcus.,...... it' has something to do with the guy who is credited under "Mastering" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Psychedelic AllabertA Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 SISB (which I just got) kinda reminds me of the first release of Dark Soho's Sun Spot... I heard the sound engineer screwed the master tape up and the sound quality was very poor... like someone "sucked the life out" of the music... Now, I don't know about vinyl but the SISB CD mastering isn't good IMO. I just compared it to Scizoeffective and the difference is obvious! Maybe it should be re-released under another label... shame. I looked forward to it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Matta Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 I agree that D.Drum has bad sound quality. It's BAAAAAD. Bad-ass. Now, if you meant that the label has "poor" sound quality, well then I'll have to disagree. EA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Psychedelic AllabertA Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 Well, maybe your ears have poor sound quality... I got SISB and I don't like what I'm hearing. I'm not enjoying it because it sounds dry and flat. I'm glad you maybe are but I'm not. Here you go. And a shpongled smiley for conclusion :: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest parhelion Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 I've never heard anything wrong with a D.Drum record...levels are always good, sound is clean, and the tracks are supposed to sound as they do! I love it! this style kicks my ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asshopper Posted February 7, 2002 Share Posted February 7, 2002 sorry, the topic is just confused, what i would like to point out was the bad sound mastering on SISB & on most of Midi Miliz stuff... um, wonder how do they think these are intentional good quality sound *__* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mE Posted February 7, 2002 Share Posted February 7, 2002 Nine Inch Nails also used to do that stratagy... Make it sound like the amp is in overdrive.. that static sounding effect. It's ment to piss you off. Which is what it does so well... lol ... As for The Delta... They are just doing it to be "HARDCORE WILD MAN" and sooooo...uh... yeah. sounds like Boom krrrr boom krrrr ... hm. Broken speaker sound lol.
