Yes, but if you want to send me the original file via yousendit, I can try to clean up the one you have recorded already if you want... Just let me know, feel free to just PM me a yousendit link...

With Myra gone to Greece this week I'll have some free time to remaster it and see if we can get it soundin' solid bro!

Besides, the TL reads like a "Greatest Hits from DJ RJT's latest livesets" mix, so I definitely wanna give this set a shot...

i had it saved in Cubase - when recording the limiter was not turned on, and my volume on my receiver was way up - and i recorded it through the receiver... so yeah long story short i turned the limiter on and made it re-record itself.

go Cubase!

Hmmm... still issues in this one for me too m8... Did you just re-record the same file with the limiter on? It's still just got crazy distortion all over it...

Offer still stands if you want me to try and clean it up...

yeah clean it i guess, i did everything i could, first song does have distortion true, maybe cuz that one was a vinyl, check the whole set.

if you want to go for it and fuck around see what you get out of it

Yeah, I just scanned through the set to see what I could find and I saw distortion all over.... Your highs and mids come through pretty much ok, but any point where there's alot going on in the tracks and there's a heavy kick you can hear just a lot of distorted peaks...

I'll give it a listen on the big system at work tonight and see if I can run any filters through it that will clean up that little bit and get back to you, but honestly, if you could, I'd really just re-record the set with your levels set significantly lower, then normalize and amplify if you need to.... Just my suggestions, but it's a lot easier to make something sound better at a louder volume if you haven't hit your peaks recording it...

Cheers.

Sick, very sick stuff. Lovin' it!

Alto Voltage, Fuck Me, Changes = hot choons of mine right now (though I prefer the flip of Alto Voltage a bit better). All that spanish style prog/house is where it's at right now IMNSHO.

Posted by RJT on Feb-01-2006 21:39:

PS: Biggest points of issue:

9. Ahmet Ertenu - Why (Derek Howell Remix)
10. David Amo & Julio Nabas - Alto Voltaje
12. Noir - My MTV (Original Mix)

Those are the only 3 I can find right now with significant distortion, the rest sounds better, but still a little processed... but enough on the sound quality, I'll listen to the set at work and hook up a proper review later on Dennis.

sounds good to me, guess i'm still new to this whole DJ thing , just plug me in at a club and have someone set the lvls for me ha ha

edit: i think my vinyls are where the problems at, might be just the numarks wearing out (cuz they pieces of shit). Technics are my next investment.

RJT = Audiophile

So far so good (About 40 min in), well mixed, and lots of good tracks, my ONLY (and this is a SMALL complaint) complaint is that you bang out a LOT of the big tunes out there right now real early in the set, I would have liked to see a little bit more of your own influence, but hell Dennis, the set is real solid, and actually reminds me a ton of Max G's November promo...

Well done kid, I'll try to get into specifics when I get home from work, but I can already tell you I'll be rocking this to amp me up for class for the next couple weeks for sure...

well i think it's only fair since your mix's been sitting in my car's CD player for the whole week now.
