Good shit, do u know how long the full version is? Because I have the "radio edit" which is 7:01 which doesn't seem like a radio edit to me LoL.

guys trust me on this one - DO NOT download it from shadow-zone your wasting your time - yes it is a vinyl rip but its a fucking disgrace! seriously! the track has buzzing all the way through it (the ripper forgot to ground his cable probably) and the rip is way too fucking loud and its VERY trebley - extremely lack of bass - apparently the rips on sound revolution are ok so get it from there - trust me on this one ok I grabbed it 30 minutes after it was released by mp3 group "MTC" and its a fucking joke of a rip but the sound revolution rip is by someone else.

Has anybody been able to download this song from that site? Because I've been trying for awhile now and haven't had any luck, it just comes up as an Adobe file

I got my hands on this pretty awful rip from another site, and I agree. It sounds disgraceful! Can't even turn up this amazing song without it sounding bad

Posted by Paul Griffiths 1 on Apr-21-2001 04:22:

It's the same rip on Soundrevolution...

Simcut, Soundrevolution's got the same crappy rip...grrr

Posted by RichieRich on Apr-21-2001 04:55:

Just got it from Sound Revolution. It's not that bad. It will do till I can find a better one but...
What a song!

Posted by DjTS-NeXiLe on Apr-21-2001 05:45:

Simcut... you feel very strong about bad rips dont you ? hmmm. Actually they shit me too. Got an old song (Mauro Picotto - Pegasus (Tea Mix)) and it has fucking clicking all the way through. U know how fuuuucking annoying it is ???

Posted by Paul Griffiths 1 on Apr-21-2001 06:14:

Rip groups should be able to release quality rips, and they do I guess, but not all the time. Different people work for the same groups I believe, but If I worked for one (and as fussy as I am about music quality) I wouldn't be releasing anything as bad as that. I'd feel embarrassed if I did.

better rip

go here if you want a better version of DJ Scot's - O (Overdrive) in 192kbps http://beam.to/FutureTraxx make sure you rename it to .rar file and use winrar to extract it.

Posted by NZWaverider on Apr-21-2001 10:21:

How do u do that?

Posted by Kraith on Apr-21-2001 11:29:

Bad quality tracks

Also, many seem to be using AudioCatalyst and crappy encoders like that, and encoding in Joint Stereo, reducing the stereo separation.
All groups should use the LAME encoder IMHO.

Dude.. i've also noticed that most of my DJ Scot Project songs sound pretty bad.. and I can't find better versions of them.. I dunno if it's either the vinyl that sounds shitty or the ripper's shitty job.. ?

Posted by on Apr-21-2001 13:02:

well I was in the mp3 scene for about 2 years in total - in all the major trance groups - BMI,TCLUB,BPM and I was ex-POW leader.....It drives me mental when I hear vinyl rips that sound like they were ripped using a microphone and there are too many bad rippers in the scene that are allowed to upload - I always try my best when I rip a vinyl but some vinyls are extremely difficult to rip - imho there are too many rippers who dont give a shit about quality anymore and just upload for some credits...anyhow thats just my feelings on the subject - which DJ Scot Project vinyls have you got bad rips of? the Overdose vinyls are not pressed that wonderfully - especially some XTC ones but still when I download a rip and hear buzzing all the way through it in the background (I guess the guy left his dildo on hehe) and when it is ripped so loudly and with such a lack of bass that it gets distorted it makes me angry when people spend over 30 / 40 minutes downloading it to find it sounds like shite.

There are only a few decent quality vinyl rippers and I'm not being bigheaded but I'm one of em cause I actually give a flying fuck about the quality - if I feel my rip isnt good enough I re-rip until I feel it is - I also edit out any clicks if there are any using cool edit pro - I encode using Audioactive Pro Studio and I cant be arsed with the shite that is Audiocatalyst

Anyways ranting over :P

man what can i say. U are a ledgend. Doing all that for the rip! I spose the definition of a good ripper is when you hear a mix and you nonchalontly listen and continue... without hearing any defects. If im getting this through ? I dont exactly know how to put it but yeh.

Also i dont care what anyone encodes with. I use AC and get PERFECT mp3s from it. I rip a 7min song in 1min from cd to mp3... im happy. Its only shit if u encode with a slow pc.

mmm respect to all

Posted by DjTS-NeXiLe on Apr-21-2001 16:05:

and if u dont mind me asking? why'd u quit P0W ???

Posted by DRM on Apr-21-2001 18:48:

That's not true unfortunately. Encoding with a slow PC won't make any difference to the sound quality, unless it can't have the power to encode at a high bitrate, but I don't think that's the case. I used to use Audiocatalyst because it was fast, but then I read some shocking reports on it, and the quality is actually far from Perfect. Then I went to use the Radium release of the Frauhnhofer engine. It was much slower, but the result was a crisper, clearer, overall better sounding rip. And with expensive stereo equipment, I DID notice the difference.

I visted a site (www.r3mix.net) that has the complete rundown on encoders and they recommend only LAME. I use only that now, and the quality of that is absolutely brilliant. And it encodes with a good speed too. As mentioned before any good rip group will use LAME v3.88b.

I personally have NEVER had any problems with audioactive pro studio - it rules in my opinion.

Posted by DjTS-NeXiLe on Apr-22-2001 05:28:

Hey exeryone check out that site. Its a real eyeopener for me. geeze thx man. Im going lame all the way now. ;-). Check it out sim. Good stuff.

Ok man. Just to prove you wrong... with AC i encoded a mp3 last year with my p200-64mb ram. Now that sounds terrible compared to if i would rip it with my p800-128mb ram. The thing is, my old pc couldnt handle the speed of the encoding and constantly produced bodgy mp3s. Now i notice nothing when i rip with AC but still im going to Lame now so i have been converted! hehe.
