The "bickering about the dynamics of CDs" could be partly due to the

reducing the dynamic range considerably.

Cordially, Ismael
I've read that article (and I've heard the Rush CDs!) and I couldn't
agree more.
In general, I can't help but feel that if the engineer always needs to
compress a acoustic recording, then the musician should really learn
how to control the dynamics of his performance better.
Dynamics are an important part of music!
Yes this is indeed true and one of the reasons some older recordings
sound so good is because they were played really well.
I have fallen into the ' I'll sort that out in the mix' Really very
rarely works.
If it doesn't sound that good play it again until it does.
Bob
