hey bob,
I understand that..when we first got into solid state stuff we were always cranking it up to find the 'hiss' etc...
Some recordings do have a high ambient background noise and you do here it at the end of a track when they cut everything down...its amazing how noisy they can be.
The demo cd or tracks I started this thread about really was aimed at the overall experience rather than specific criteria for what defines a demo cd..never want to get that complicated..
More of a what does everyone listen to on their SongTowers etc that really plays well on them...
The clarity, the mixing, the everything, the kind of experience while listening that makes you smile and saw OMG that was just awesome!!
So the content may not be everyones cup of tea, but its gotta to be well done all around and any one area where it may not be up to spec is fine to....but its got to WOW us!!
aa
I have not been able to liste alot in the past week, life has once again got in the way of play time!!
I hope to get back early next week and post some new recordings....i have a stack to listen to!!
All the best
Alex
