So while things have been all quiet on the western front, projects still remain in the works. Especially my favorite--audio mixing projects! So if anybody is curious in being a focus group for a mixing shoot-off, you're reading the right thread.
In the link is a zip with 5 different mp3s, all of One>Streets. All mixed from exactly the same sources, and there are three different folks attempting their hand at these.
Each file has been loudness matched to -16 LUFS under the ITU-R BS.1770-2 loudness standards, so loudness should be pretty uniform.
3 or 4 for me, 2 sounds too thinny, 1 sounds muddy in comparison. 5 sounds really similar to 3 and 4 but one has to choose somewhow. 3 or 4 is how I'd prefer my favorite show to sound like.
Raw Bono mic clips, cant wait for that We discussed those a year ago or so on U2T briefly. Is there a real difference between sound quality? Obviously it is Bono only without metronome, but I am curious how much signal processing is done on his voice in the IEMs.
Ah yes. Its more of EQ + some mild compression + reverb added to his vocals. A bum note is still a bum note, they don't run any autotune for the show as far as I can tell.
