it should be ok for me to put them online, if we are using your server for downloads.

if however we are moving them somewhere else, then let me know.

i can probably sort it out ya see.

all the way through ??? :?

Everything is fine on the mastered track , except the crackling in the blast and the noise in the vocals which have already been in the original File ! Sometimes the mastering will reveal the limitations of the original source.

Maybe my mp3 converter had a problem with the loudness of the mastered track and because of it's low resolution (128kb) it does sounds a bit distorted, but i will check it here as well, give me a minute....

I heard the prev-clip , and yes there is the distortion from the <b>blast sound</b> which crackles .
I have talked to Lars about this problem before and we both decided to leave it as it is...
There was already a clip during the recording that Lars did, and the mastering of this track made a spot out of this error,sorry but i can't remove clipping in a finished track! :cry:

BLOOD VALLEY!!!

Post by tom »

Well, I had a listen to the original unmastered <b>16bit/96000hz.wav</b> file which Lars send to me and the little clips in the guitar and the loud clip in the blast-sound are already there in the original recording ...
As i said before, mastering will reveal the limitations of the source (if there is a limitation) ... :!:

If you can't life with it, then LARS has to do the whole recording once again!!! That's the only solution we have guys...sorry

Hey Tom

I think that thing that is considered crakling is actually clipping in the lead guitar samples. I think it somes from the sound of the pick hitting the string...
There's still the crackles from the blast but as you said we agreed that that was fitting... :)

EDIT: Actually it turned out to be the bass sound that had a not so lucky attack which has too much treble on it... At least I think that's why it sounds that way... Whatever the reason, it is caused by the bass...
<--- I went that way --->
