As Fons already pointed out, you don't know what's going on, you don't have control about it, OTOH I've seen a lot of mastering folks taking drugs at the wrong time, at some point even humans doing a good EQ job for the tracks are as useful/useless as a multiband compressor is for the stereo sum. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
