Couple things.
First..the files you have up there sound great...even if they do gpf my machine. (bad .wma player..not your fault.)
2nd...some of your perf notes are a bit off. For example, Hyde never played guitar on Can I play with Madness. Nitpicky..I know.
3rd...you have the karaoke version of 7th son up...yet you give props to 7th son for vox.
..ya ya.. I know...'stop yer bitchin rabies!'
about that 7thSon thing! Heh, I worked on that late into the night just to get it into somewhat respectable shape for the move and I guess most of my brain was ready for bed!
Well, let's just say that he sang it very, very queitly.
And Rabs, man, nitpick away! It's a great help when you guys point that kinda stuff out. It saves me time!
I think I just misread one of the lines in your Excel file and mixed up Pyuras with Mr. Hyde. DOH!
I was hoping that the .wma files would sound good to you guys too. I am surprised at how well they turned out at 64k. I am using Sonic Foundry's Stream Anywhere program to make them. It's fast, easy and does a good job. I've been very impressed with it! It has a few EQ and normalization settings that help out too. I tried to use those sparingly though, because I didn't want to end up altering anyone's mix. Please let me know if any sound too inaccurate compared to it's original .mp3 file. On most I boosted the bass a bit, cut the overall level a bit and normailized it, and some I cut the highs a bit if the voacls sounded shrill. Digital music on the PC always tends to come out that way, so I tried to compensate somewhat.
Bad .wma player? Which are you using?
And Rabs, don't EVER let anyone tell ya to quit yer bitchin!
