hey all, im back. Had to format my harddrive due to the new Xp virus floating around. Im sure all of you remember my popular post on the EoR production that had to be taken down due to the overwelming responce, and legality issues lol. I figured i'd post and idea how to fix your own copy of EoR, this way im not sending mp3's and pissing of the label etc; As darth posted in a similiar thread "the album was remastered-- could the mp3 be the original mastering? it's actually an eq problem, as passenger57 showed us. put in some trebble and take out a little of the lower frequencies. it's a fantastic recording, only the eq is messed up."
Hes right. All it will take is a little equalizing, and thats where i can show you what to do. You need a program called Cool Edit Pro 2.0. That can be downloaded. I have cakewalk so i used the cool edit pro and the cakwalk/sonar eq to stabalize the sound, therefore taking the "blanket" off the sound as mentioned alot of times on my old thread. I used sonar to do other things to the sound, but I found that using Cool Edit Pro can work almost as good. If you dont have cakewalk/sonar all you do is this. Rip your "purchased" copy of EoR to your computer into mp3's (use cdex for this) once you have that done you then open up Cool Edit Pro. Then you click on "open file" and search for the mp3's you just ripped. Select the mp3 (one at a time) and open it. If you got this far the rest is easy. Then it will import it. Next click on "effects" then "filters" then "graphic equalizer". You can mess around with that yourself or you can simply choose the "30 Band Punch and Sparkle" preset and preview it if you want, and click on ok when you are done. It will then re-equalize the mp3. Click save. Thats it. Lots of users have heard what ive done to the sound. It will go from the sound you are complaining about to the quality similiar to DHIADW or PoE. No joke. This is the best way, so that its safe, legal, and there will be no "bootlegging" of any sort. Any questions message me here at the board.
