12:18:47 From kennethpage : Hello to everyone from Kansas City. 12:25:01 From Glenn Workman : https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/mododrum/ 12:25:25 From kennethpage : Thanks Glenn. 12:29:04 From Glenn Workman : https://www.freqsound.com/motuuserfiles/TrainingVideos/ 12:29:33 From kennethpage : Again, Thanks 12:29:34 From James Paschall : Thanks for that Glenn! 12:30:45 From Glenn Workman : https://www.freqsound.com/motuuserfiles/ 12:31:08 From James Paschall : Great! 12:31:26 From Benoit Widemann : Awesome Glenn 12:31:38 From Matt LaPoint : https://www.dropbox.com/s/a3q31vux7ik8vz2/Youlean-Loudness-Meter-2-V2.4.0-macOS.zip?dl=0 12:31:48 From John Boyle : Glenn, you are indispensable for this group. Thank you. 12:31:50 From kennethpage : Thanks Matt. 12:31:59 From Glenn Workman : Richard Marvin’s keynote is in the motuuserfiles area posted above. 12:32:25 From Francisco Lopez : where is the chat 12:32:27 From Terry Leigh Britton : Youlean does have Windows versions. 12:32:31 From gReg Silvus : Yes, thanks so much, Glenn 12:32:47 From Wayne Pronzati : Thanks Matt! 12:34:08 From Glenn Workman : Francisco: You’re typing in in. 12:34:12 From Glenn Workman : *it 12:36:00 From Adam Goldman : Glenn…tell him several folks are not muted 12:36:19 From Robert Turner : It's not ME!! LoL 12:37:33 From Glenn Workman : Looks like I own at least a dozen of the titles that are displaying on his website. 12:38:24 From kennethpage : I also own some of those albums 12:42:01 From Ray Toler : I own a lot of those albums, kenneth! 12:52:03 From Glenn Workman : LOVE Jay Oliver’s playing. 12:55:00 From Geert D'haene : I like the A / B plugin from plugin alliance a lot when I mix or master. Greetings from Belgium 12:55:49 From Glenn Workman : FFT: Fast Fourier Transform. The math foundation for this comes from Jean-Baptiste Joseph Fourier. I ask my students when they thought he did this pivotal work. They are generally surprised he worked for Napoleon. 12:57:14 From Glenn Workman : Keith Moon anyone? 12:57:27 From Roberto Colombo : @Glenn... remember how much mathematics and geometry was nailed down 2000 years and earlier ago... :-) 12:57:27 From Adam Goldman : Glenn: :-) 12:57:47 From Glenn Workman : Roberto: Yes, with pretty much a pencil, a rock, and a piece of string. 12:58:00 From Timmy Samuel : I like magical knobs. 12:58:04 From Adam Goldman : wait…where did I put my abacus? 12:58:26 From Glenn Workman : Adam: You were using in Tuesday’s webinar. 12:58:36 From Adam Goldman : a lifetime ago 12:58:53 From Ken Thies : Hey, I still have - and use - my slide rule... 12:58:58 From Bradley DePasse : You guys will love this!! https://www.ranecommercial.com/legacy/pi14.html 12:59:19 From Glenn Workman : Ken: Holding my circular slide rule up to my camera... 12:59:30 From Bradley DePasse : A fake piece of equipment Rane prototyped to get a laugh out of everyone 12:59:44 From Roberto Colombo : @Ken LOL... I still use my GR50 Guitar Synth from Roland,.... developed more than 30 years ago... those Roland engineers really did rock 12:59:54 From Ken Thies : Glenn, your camera isn't on... ;-) 13:00:06 From jraoul : Bradley - great! 13:00:11 From Adam Goldman : Bradley: Oh, that Ecstasy knob. 13:00:27 From Russ Pfeifer : Bradley - sweet 13:00:31 From Adam Goldman : too much this, though, and perhaps too little that, I fear 13:00:37 From Glenn Workman : GW Camera - my computer doesn’t have a camera, so I log in twice, once for audio once for video. 13:00:59 From Bradley DePasse : It’s hilarious! Years ago, the Rane rep cam in with actual pice of hardware to go with it!!! 13:01:02 From jraoul : Adam — they came out with a The Other Thing add-on 13:01:27 From jraoul : sidechain feature 13:01:52 From Adam Goldman : oh, we’re DEFINITELY gonna need one of those. 13:01:55 From Adam Goldman : (maybe 2) 13:03:35 From Glenn Workman : The Phoenix Pro guitar plug-in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNiQt8QLEiA 13:04:23 From Ray Toler : I wish Funk Logic was still making their fun blanks. 13:04:56 From Glenn Workman : The Funklogic Masterizer: Favorite switch - ON or MORON. 13:05:45 From Russ Pfeifer : :-) 13:06:10 From Adam Goldman : I think it’s Dangerous Music who makes a monitor control that has a “Producer” button. Does nothing, but can make your annoying producer think he has control that gives an A/B switch…see if he can tell which he prefers, A or B (and they’re identical). :-) 13:07:50 From Caxa : Plugin Alliance (Brainworx) are having their summer sale at the moment. 13:08:05 From Glenn Workman : Waves: Everything 90% off this day only! And the next day! 13:08:09 From Bradley DePasse : Love the producer switch! 13:08:13 From Ray Toler : I worked in a studio where we had an old piece of gear that wasn’t plugged into anything. We had one producer who always wanted more “sweetness” so we “rewired” the unused gear and put a “Sweetness” label under the biggest knob. Made him happy. 13:08:49 From Stephen Burch : Ha Ha 13:09:23 From jraoul : GW - website says 40%, not 90 13:10:06 From Matthew Komaiko : I remember working on a project at Air Lyndhurst and they had a fader for Hans to play with 13:10:16 From Glenn Workman : jraoul: I get non-stop emails from them all heavily discounted. Changes constantly, much like the weather. 13:12:47 From Caxa : Waves are awful for pricing. Their RRP’s are totally spurious. 13:13:31 From Glenn Workman : I tested for Waves for several years. Just got too difficult to deal with. Great sounding stuff. 13:14:34 From John Boylan : Weiss also makes the very best Sample Rate Converter, although iZotope is a close second 13:16:47 From jraoul : Glenn: Is it ok for you to post the Waves 90% discount? 13:17:51 From Glenn Workman : jraoul: I was mostly joking. They seriously discount stuff constantly and bombard me with emails. If you sign up on their website I’m sure you will get the “deal of the day” type stuff emailed to you. 13:18:10 From Matthew Komaiko : What theme is Matt running? 13:18:13 From jraoul : Ah. Insert emoji for “missed that joke” 13:18:29 From Glenn Workman : Matthew: He is using the current DP10 Default. 13:21:29 From Adam Goldman : when you upload to these streaming services, the service themselves will adjust whatever you upload, I’ve found. 13:21:29 From Ray Toler : About 3 years ago I started mixing at K-14 and mastering to somewhere in -16 to -14 LUFS. One of my favorite plugs now is Dynameter. 13:22:13 From Adam Goldman : so, getting close to the LUFS is good, but they seem to me to pretty uniformly adjust it regardless (kind of annoying, really) 13:22:24 From Bradley DePasse : I don’t like what’s happened to mastering with all of the loudness wars - it has destroyed the dynamics of the music 13:22:42 From Adam Goldman : Sorry, Bradley, can’t hear you. 13:22:48 From Russ Pfeifer : ha 13:23:06 From Bradley DePasse : lol 13:23:12 From Ray Toler : I figure if I’m hitting -15 routinely, the adjustment is minimal for the main streaming services. I’m focused more on getting the dynamic range into the sweet spots now. 13:23:25 From Adam Goldman : Hoffa DDP’s been missing for years 13:23:31 From jraoul : Ha 13:23:43 From Glenn Workman : Matt as always will do Q/A at some point. If you want to ask a question, open the Participants panel then click the Raise Hand button. Matt will unmute your mic so you can ask a question directly. 13:25:40 From Bradley DePasse : You guys should all watch this video when yo have time… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiRMYoqU3ys. In this presentation, GRAMMY-nominated mastering engineer Alan Silverman shows how music streaming services have turned the world of mastering for loudness upside down. 13:26:32 From Glenn Workman : Bradley: Thanks. 13:26:34 From Adam Goldman : Bradley…saw that video…powerful, cogent arguments. Very cool discussion. 13:27:24 From Bradley DePasse : in the next few years, all of the music that have been squashed too much will finally be revealed for what it is… squashed. 13:27:40 From Glenn Workman : I love sequencing an album and adjusting the time between tracks. It can be just as musical as other aspects of the production. The right breathing space or not as dictated by the material, tempo, mood etc. 13:28:14 From Ray Toler : One utility I’ve also found very helpful is r128x (https://github.com/audionuma/r128x) - you can dump a whole folder of audio files into it and it quickly goes through and gives you loudness levels for each one. Great for that final check before uploading. 13:28:20 From Bradley DePasse : Glenn: YES! For us guys that used to listen to an album and know what song was coming next! 13:28:36 From Jeff Kruizenga : This is my first time in - does it have to be on topic or are we able to ask any questions? 13:28:51 From jraoul : “Mjusic is the silence between the notes” - Debussy 13:29:02 From Glenn Workman : Bradley: I’m still an album listener, not a singles guy. I’ll even sit in my car when I arrive somewhere and wait for the album to finish (or at least the current song if time is short). 13:29:37 From Glenn Workman : Jeff: Any DP question is valid. On Fridays the webinars have much longer Q/A as part of the session. 13:29:45 From Bradley DePasse : jraroul: EXACTLY!! 13:31:17 From Bradley DePasse : Glenn: Right on - me too. Even though I’m deep into the digital age, I believe in artist interpretation 13:32:36 From Glenn Workman : There is a great explanation of dither on Nigel Redmon’s page. Nigel is a DP user (also one of the beta testers) and video I use all the time to get the point across to students: https://www.earlevel.com/main/2014/03/ 13:34:47 From Wally Badarou : Nigel was also the creator of much beloved HyperMidi back in the days. 13:35:02 From Glenn Workman : Puts most of the randomization in the upper frequencies where are ears are less sensitive. 13:35:37 From Kubilay Uner : Magic Dave explained years ago the difference between the Dither under the Audio menu: “Dither under the Audio menu is applied when DP creates an audio file. There is a difference between DP creating an audio file or that audio file being created by MAS. For example, recording, rerecording, or bouncing is a MAS function. Pitch shifting, creating crossfades, printing a destructive effect, or merging audio are all DP functions. When DP creates an audio file directly, it is going from the floating point number to either a 16 bit or 24 bit fixed integer sample. Rounding happens automatically. The only difference between the dither in the Audio menu and the dither in the MW Limiter is that the Audio menu dither doesn't have the sub-option of noiseshaping.” 13:35:43 From Glenn Workman : Wally: At some point he worked for Oberheim (his name appears on the Xpander and Matrix-12 Hi Mom! and Hi Dad! pages. 13:36:11 From Wally Badarou : Glenn: Great stuff 13:36:27 From Kubilay Uner : So dither under the audio menu according to this should always be on, since it affects different processes than the ones affected by a plugin on the master 13:37:00 From Bradley DePasse : Wally Badarou is one of my all-time favorites! 13:37:36 From kennethpage : Bradley. Me Too 13:37:38 From Joel Friedman : Came in late: Matt’s referred to “you all have it now…” what/where? 13:37:50 From Glenn Workman : Kublilay: I thinks Matt’s logic was he is using the final plug-ins to use their math and other noise-shipping algorithms, rather than the default. Generally I’ve always been told not to dither anything more than once, so I don’t know where some of things are in the signal path. 13:38:24 From Adam Goldman : Joel: https://www.dropbox.com/s/a3q31vux7ik8vz2/Youlean-Loudness-Meter-2-V2.4.0-macOS.zip?dl=0 13:38:27 From Kubilay Uner : Again, if you read Magic Dave’s post the Dither option under the audio menu doesn’t apply when you print through an effect. 13:38:33 From Kubilay Uner : So it is not double dithering. 13:38:39 From Joel Friedman : Thank you Adam! 13:38:42 From Glenn Workman : Joel: I’ll ask him. He mentioned something several webinars ago he was going to send me to post, but I was missing audio most of that day and didn’t hear what he was referring to. 13:38:57 From Kubilay Uner : Sounds good! 13:39:31 From Glenn Workman : Joel: I thought you were referring to the one several days ago. Adam posted today’s link for a meter. 13:39:59 From Kubilay Uner : Just going by that explanation from Dave Roberts way back when but it made sense to me. 13:40:00 From Joel Friedman : @Glenn gotcha. I missed Tuesday. 13:40:11 From Bradley DePasse : Recorded entirely in the digital domain in 1984 on a New England Digital Synclavier!! https://www.discogs.com/Wally-Badarou-Echoes/master/65887 13:40:39 From Adam Goldman : Joel…I think you were referring to a moment or two ago when Matt said “we all have it now”….which I’m pretty sure was the meter in the link I sent 13:41:38 From Joel Friedman : OK, thanks @Adam 13:43:19 From Ray Toler : And hooray for Zynaptiq picking up the Aurchitect product line a few weeks ago! Myriad is working again. 13:45:20 From Timmy Samuel : Unfortunately Zoom squishes the audio so I can’t really hear fine detail. 13:45:44 From jraoul : +1 Timmy. And add in my crappy home monitors 13:46:06 From Adam Goldman : could hear the changes here, and as Matt said, they were SUBTLE. 13:46:13 From Adam Goldman : (like, seriously) 13:46:33 From Glenn Workman : Timmy: MOTU has slowly been adding videos of the webinars. Matt is recording the audio directly (not through Zoom), so when they are posted you can hear the stuff in much better quality. 13:46:39 From Reed Robins : Yeah Adam, I could hear them too. Impressive 13:46:43 From Timmy Samuel : Might also be my ears. :-) 13:49:02 From Glenn Workman : Matt as always will do Q/A at some point. If you want to ask a question, open the Participants panel then click the Raise Hand button. Matt will unmute your mic so you can ask a question directly. 13:49:29 From Ray Toler : How did you get that deal, John??? They wanted my BMW and firstborn child. 13:49:45 From Carol Laula : Thanks for the session - bye from sunny Glasgow, Scotland\ 13:50:03 From James Paschall : Cheers, Carol! 13:50:09 From Glenn Workman : Bye Carol. 13:50:33 From Timmy Samuel : Thanks Glenn! 13:50:33 From John Boyle : Didn’t catch what John Boylan said the plug in was. Help? 13:50:49 From jraoul : NuGen Mastercheck Pro 13:50:59 From John Boyle : Thanks 13:51:05 From Eric Brown : Can you do this same type of mastering in Performer Lite? 13:51:35 From James Paschall : Second vowel gets the long sound. 13:51:37 From Ray Toler : I ended up using HOFA CD-Burn DDP Master. 13:51:53 From Glenn Workman : Eric: Many of the same DP plug-ins are included. Any of the 3rd party plug-ins can be added. 13:52:17 From Glenn Workman : NuGen Mastercheck Pro 13:52:22 From Adam Goldman : if it’s German, would it be a “v” sound? (like Vice?) 13:52:39 From jraoul : What is the question to which the answer is “9W”? 13:52:51 From Ray Toler : And yes for Roundtrip. And… uh… +1 for -1. 13:53:09 From James Paschall : Right, w = double v. 13:53:12 From Ken Thies : Adam: yes. 13:53:18 From Darrell Smith : John Boylan game ball for the day awesome tips. 13:53:33 From Ken Thies : Or I should say, Ja Wohl! :-) 13:53:49 From Adam Goldman : jraoul: My dad used to tell that joke. “Is this the Henry Hudson Parkway?” 13:53:54 From Eric Brown : I have some friends and clients that I’ve either suggested they buy a M4 or M2 or are waiting for one. They’ve asked me about Mastering and I knew you could in DP10. 13:53:59 From Adam Goldman : (I think that was right) 13:54:00 From James Paschall : Thanks, John! 13:54:13 From jraoul : Adam — don’tknow that one, and I grew up a mile from the HH (87) 13:54:22 From Robert Turner : I deliver all my mixes at -1. That just became my standard several years ago. 13:54:41 From Adam Goldman : I might have the wrong road, but it was something like that…I think the road heading north there is 9W 13:54:48 From Ray Toler : Robert - same. 13:54:53 From jraoul : I got it as soon as I hit send. 13:55:34 From Adam Goldman : Reminder to lower “hands” after getting your answers 13:56:16 From Glenn Workman : Matt - gun for hire 13:56:28 From Adam Goldman : Have DP, will travel 13:57:37 From James Paschall : lol 14:00:59 From Joel Friedman : Thank you all. Taking off. 14:01:50 From Matthew Komaiko : what is the suggestion email again? 14:01:59 From Glenn Workman : suggestions@motu.com 14:02:13 From Matthew Komaiko : Thank you 14:02:19 From Ray Toler : Yeah, CD Baby still has that limitation. I steer people to Bandcamp for high-rez versions. 14:02:39 From Glenn Workman : Agree with Ray: I use Bandcamp for higher rate stuff. 14:02:41 From Matthew Komaiko : anyone suggested a wrap-around mixing board like the meter bridge? 14:05:02 From Glenn Workman : Discmakers bought CD Baby years ago, and unless that’s changed, that might be why 44.1/16 is still their desired format. 14:05:07 From Ray Toler : Does anyone have a favorite meta-info app that handles both ISRC codes and broadcast wav tags? 14:05:48 From Charles White : My sync mentors are leaning toward Distrokid. 14:06:00 From Charles White : For their streaming releases 14:06:20 From Adam Goldman : A dear friend of mine works (and has worked ) at DiscMakers for years and years….I do believe they are still the force behind CD Baby…and I think there’s a couple of others that are actually theirs too, which means various services like CDBaby are all really Discmakers once you’re past the front door. 14:08:01 From Reed Robins : https://www.meterplugs.com/loudness-penalty 14:08:03 From chris : Anyone using waves L3 for mastering? 14:08:16 From Glenn Workman : For those who missed this prior to the session: I’ve posted Richard Marvin’s presentation from the other day in our motuuserfiles folder. I’ve zipped it as a Keynoter, PowerPoint, and pdf file so everyone should be able to view it. https://www.freqsound.com/motuuserfiles/ 14:08:18 From Charles White : I think Matt mentioned it 14:08:22 From Paul Colombo : Adam: Yes. Local to us… I have known people that worked there. Fred, Keith… 14:08:30 From Ray Toler : +1 for loudness penalty 14:08:46 From Adam Goldman : Paul…they have a west coast division too in CA, but HQ is in Pennsauken, NJ 14:08:53 From Adam Goldman : (Discmakers, that is) 14:09:01 From Eric Brown : What was the name of that thing that was just mentioned by the last person? 14:09:18 From Glenn Workman : If anyone wants to save the text here in chat, click the little 3 dot bubble in the text area here has an option to save chat. It will have everything from when you logged on to when you clicked save. 14:09:19 From Adam Goldman : Eric Brown: https://www.meterplugs.com/loudness-penalty 14:09:24 From Adam Goldman : I think that’s what you mean? 14:09:44 From Eric Brown : I think it is. Thanks! 14:10:05 From Reed Robins : Yep that’s it 14:10:25 From Adam Goldman : “apply in a single shot”….you’d be a DP Wizard, like Matt! 14:13:36 From Xavier LaBradford : @Eric Brown - I think it was https://www.zynaptiq.com/unfilter/ 14:13:53 From Ray Toler : Benoit, I target -15 to -14 for most things. 14:14:40 From Ray Toler : As long as your dynamics aren’t too squashed, the auto-gain won’t affect the sound very much. 14:15:35 From Benoit Widemann : @Ray: thanks 14:16:24 From Timmy Samuel : Matt/Glenn RE: dry v wet output. This is the way I set up a v-rack including two busses to output to separate headphone and speaker output. It gives the ability to send to whatever output without hitting the master fader. I use what I call Main Mix Bus that is controlled by the Master fader, then set up two other auxs for separate output. That way, you can set up your dry track in you sequence to go to your main out. Here’s a link to my v-rack: https://www.dropbox.com/s/cnxt5z52rpfpkjw/Screenshot%202020-06-25%2013.07.40.png?dl=0 14:16:37 From Reed Robins : Saw a webinar with Bobby Owsinski yesterday. He said don’t worry about reliving different masters for streaming services, they’ll do it. 14:17:01 From Reed Robins : LUFS is, I think, more important when it’s broadcast… 14:17:13 From Glenn Workman : Timmy: Thanks. 14:17:38 From Timmy Samuel : Adam talking about the same thing :-) 14:17:54 From Ray Toler : -23 LUFS for broadcast, but all of the major streaming services are now using LUFS for their level correction algorithms. 14:18:13 From Ray Toler : Not sure if it’s still an available download, but Apple made some nice tools in their “Mastered for iTunes” program. 14:18:29 From jraoul : BOYLAN — you’re unmuted 14:19:06 From jraoul : John - NOW you’re muted! 14:20:55 From Dave Hayward : A/B ing the wet/dry signals in MOTU interfaces is via Cuemix? I have Focusrite I/faces and the same thing is controlled via Focusrite Control software… 14:21:36 From Timmy Samuel : Adam: it’s what I do within DP, without having to use the fancy complicated hardware. The routing is essentially the same, but internal. 14:21:50 From Roberto Colombo : what is that standalone mixer app ? 14:21:54 From Glenn Workman : Dave: Yes. Cuemix is MOTU’s older control software. What he’s showing is the newer AVB interface controls. 14:22:06 From Roberto Colombo : in bundle with some audio I/F or... ? 14:22:10 From Ray Toler : Roberto, that’s the mixer that’s built into the AVB audio interfaces. 14:22:15 From Glenn Workman : Roberto: That’s the AVB control for any of the newer MOTU interfaces. 14:22:25 From Roberto Colombo : like M4 ? 14:22:28 From Ray Toler : It’s all served up from a web server that lives on the hardware. Very slick. 14:23:22 From The Morning Lounge with Jill and Rich : I’d be up for that 14:23:46 From Ray Toler : Same - would be interested in AVB topic. 14:23:47 From Adam Goldman : Thanks, Timmy Samuel 14:24:30 From Ray Toler : Yep. Dynamics is the new hotness. Again. 14:24:33 From Caxa : Actually I think LUFS will eliminate the loudness wars and restore dynamics. 14:24:42 From Glenn Workman : Ray: I’ll put something together. I’ve got 3 of their recent interfaces, an 8M, Ultralite AVB, and a B-16. 14:25:13 From Ray Toler : I am a huge proponent of this plug-in: https://www.meterplugs.com/dynameter 14:25:14 From Adam Goldman : Caxa: Pretty sure that was the intention of creating the LUFS methodology 14:25:38 From Caxa : @Adam very welcome then! 14:25:47 From Roberto Colombo : @Glenn: I do not see that SW as part of M4 SW bundle... not sure if I can get it, how, and if it works with M4... 14:25:47 From Ray Toler : It’s a meter for your dynamics and includes ranges for the major streaming services. 14:25:57 From steve ertel : Can't find "normalize" in my Windows DP10? Seems like a good first step. 14:26:01 From Glenn Workman : Some of the remastered Van Halen records are awful that way, one solid block of audio with no dynamics 14:26:27 From James Paschall : Good comment, Bradley! 14:27:20 From Adam Goldman : “fun to watch it unravel”….while everyone goes deaf 14:27:39 From Ken Thies : Roberto, the M4 isn't an AVB interface, so no AVB software there. Assuming that was your question a few lines back... 14:27:48 From Dan Wool : Bradley: Dynausio monitors? 14:28:06 From Luis Angel : That’s what I love of Cat Stevens “Tea for the Tilerman” : full dynamic range!! Tasty!!! 14:28:11 From Russ Pfeifer : I think I’m gonna play Houses of the Holy after this to remember why I wanted to do any of this to begin with 14:28:15 From Ray Toler : I think Metallica’s Death Magnetic was the point where a lot more people started understanding how stupid the loudness wars were. 14:28:21 From Adam Goldman : Russ: Ha! 14:29:01 From Russ Pfeifer : Love Cat Stevens - timeless 14:29:04 From Roberto Colombo : @Ken, thanks... yes, that was my question... pity because I hoped MOTU had churned out a light SW for just mixing+plug-ins 14:29:07 From Dan Wool : Re Metallica, Only Nixon could go to China 14:29:29 From Adam Goldman : “oh, I can BREAK it” 14:29:30 From Ray Toler : Dan, it will be very difficult for anyone to say something better to me today. :-D 14:29:30 From Adam Goldman : :-) 14:29:36 From James Paschall : Sad Lisa, my favorite. 14:29:42 From Luis Angel : Absolutely!!! Russ!! 14:29:44 From Dan Wool : Ray: :) 14:29:55 From Ken Thies : Roberto, yeah it took me by surprise for a second when I got my M4 as well. I had gotten used to the 24ai and 24ao at my last studio... 14:30:26 From Luis Angel : James: the solo violin..!!! a beauty!!! 14:30:27 From Victor LeComer : Is that a Waldorf Q yellow machine 14:30:28 From Glenn Workman : Steve: Normalize looks to see what the absolute maximum even a single sample in the audio reaches, then boosts that entire audio file by the difference below 0dB. Not necessarily what you want to do with all audio because it actually brings up the noise floor. 14:30:31 From Ken Thies : Thank you! 14:30:31 From James Paschall : Thanks, lMatt! 14:30:31 From jraoul : Tx, Matt!
