  1. It's easy to make a crummy iem recording for soundcheck or rehearsals.

    I think this tokyo 2 iem was worked from outside with an SDR rig. A lot of static and hiss in ways you wouldn't get recording inside.

    You underestimate how many people like IEM's, regardless of quality. Many of my friends take a 2-star IEM over a 4-star audience any day.
  3. Saitama 1 AUD is so much better than the IEMs released so far. In my opinion. I find the IEM for Saitama 1 to be very bright sounding.

    As somebody who spends a lot of time recording and mixing IEM recordings,  this blows my mind (you're absolutely correct).

    I've recorded so many bad iem recordings that I've never released or have any intention of even listening.

    The tokyo auds are much better than the currently released IEMs, particularly the Saitama 2 IEM.
  6. I wish I was as blessed as you all with perfect hearing, but I've been half deaf in my left ear for most my life (55 years) for some reason the way most IEM's are mixed with vocals up front, sound so much clearer to me and more enjoyable. The audience recordings always have an element of white noise and vocals never seem high enough in the mix. I'm sure I'm in the minority but I would take a little lower rated IEM over a slightly higher rated audience anytime. I guess it's in the ear of the beholder.
  7. W IEM recording!
  8. I get what you're saying but a shitty IEM recording is a shitty recording.

    Go listen to Exit and One from the Tokyo 2 IEM recording. Just marred with static and fuzz. And then the whole recording is shrill and littered with static bursts or compression artifacts.

    Just me--I'd rather have the clean schopes AUD recording.

    you are right! Best recording DUBLIN 2018
    THANKS for recording this bootleg! Best HOSERAMA!
  10. .... and Sao Paulo 2017, Detroit 2017, Pasadena 2017, Chicago 2015 etc, etc. All high quality IEM matrix recordings which we like to listen a lot. Thanks for the gifts and work.
  11. Right but those are the top works. The poor quality recordings just never get released, generally speaking. Detroit 2017 and Chicago 2015 were not top releases but still had certain level of quality control.
  12. which are the best IEM recordings in your opinion Hoserama?
