Keskustelua raskaammasta musiikista ›

Tere,
 
käykääpä allekirjoittamassa, mikäli olette sitä mieltä että levy on masteroitu/miksattu päin persettä.

Ted Jensenin (vastasi masteroinnista) kommentti:
 
"Im certainly sympathetic to your reaction, I get to slam my head against that brick wall every day. In this case the mixes were already brick walled before they arrived at my place. Suffice it to say I would never be pushed to overdrive things as far as they are here. Believe me Im not proud to be associated with this one, and we can only hope that some good will come from this in some form of backlash against volume above all else."

Perustelkaa asianne. Älkää kirjoittako alle virkkeen mittaisia vittuiluja, ne eivät ole keskustelua. Voitte vittuilla muualla. Yli virkkeen mittaiset vittuilut voivat olla keskustelua.

"I think things came out really good. Theyre going to be mixing it while were away in Europe. Yeah, and that will be well, we havent done that in awhile. Weve usually been around for the mixes. I think it will be good for us to step away from it for a while. Let Greg Fidelman do his magic, you know that he is the engineer, his going to be mixing it. He is very tuned into what we like and need. He is very tuned into what Rick likes and needs. So, he is kind of the point man, which will be really great. We dont have to worry about what Rick is going to think about this, or Rick isnt going to have to worry about us battling him on some thing. You know, Greg, his going to be doing the mixing, his a guitar player, he gets some great sounds and thats really helpful."

Metallica reject 'Death Magnetic' CD quality claims

'It sounds fuckin' smokin' says Lars Ulrich

Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich has rejected fans' claims that their new album 'Death Magnetic' is too loud, and that the version available via the 'Guitar Hero' video game is superior.

Thousands of fans have taken to the internet to complain, but Ulrich - the first member of Metallica to speak publicly on the issue - disagrees.

"Listen, there's nothing up with the audio quality," he said. "It's 2008, and that's how we make records."

Speaking to Blender, Ulrich added: "(Producer) Rick Rubin's whole thing is to try and get it to sound lively, to get it sound loud, to get it to sound exciting, to get it to jump out of the speakers. Of course, I've heard that there are a few people complaining. But I've been listening to it the last couple of days in my car, and it sounds fuckin' smokin'."

Ulrich also said he believes that the internet magnifies the voice of "complainers".

"Listen, what are you going to do?" he asked. "A lot of people say (the CD) sounds great, and a few people say it doesn't, and that's OK. You gotta remember, when we put out '...And Justice for All' (in 1988), people were going, 'What happened to these guys, this record? There's no bass on it. It sounds like it was recorded in a fuckin' garage on an eight-track.' And now ...'And Justice for All' is sort of the seminal Metallica record that supposedly influenced a whole generation of death-metal bands.

"The difference between back then and now is the internet," he added. "The internet gives everybody a voice, and the internet has a tendency to give the complainers a louder voice."

"Ted Jensen on kertonut pahoittelevansa sitä, että hänet on liitetty osaksi tällaista toimintaa. Hän toisaalta jakaa kiitosta Metallican faneille, jotka alun perin huomasivat uusimman levyn ääniongelman." -YLE
