Agreed- Quality on this mix compared to CD1 and " is crap.

From now on - all GLOBAL mixes will need to be encoded in 256Kbps or HIGHER!

320kbps VBR ftw ^^
Belgian Bonzai
agreed, 320 if you ask me (even if you contribute a track that is only 192, should still be allowed). Though I don't think the quality is dramatic. And everybody needs to cut (amplified) compression (unless to master their own track of course, I think that's one of the biggest problems; the first tracks being compressed multiple times.
Have written down some comments on the mix, but I'm not quite finished, and I want to take a look at them again, so I don't hurt any feelings. What I can tell you is that there is not one track that I didn't like, tracklisting on this one is top imo.
mr2gti
Agree'd, but remember - if you decompress a digital file and the re-compress it in the same quality, 50,000 times, they'll be NO loss of quality.

I think, 3rd to 6th DJ in, it got encoded to 128 or even 96 kbps.

That it'self killed the first few tracks.

it isn't a bitrate issue, i'm pretty sure of that. it sounds like a compressor of some kind has been used. i may be wrong but i *think* trickysaer's track is the last track with the problem... the one after sounds fine. i'd be interested to find out what program he used to add his piece (i've had mixmeister distort tracks like that on me before.. could be that?)
trickysaer
yup, its mixmesiter ing it up. its nastier on some tracks that others. a shame...
mr2gti
Audio Catalyst is the Weapon of choice...

PM for DL info if you need a version ;)

And also i have a top notch decompressor too, mp3 to wav one.
trickysaer
yes, audiocatalyst is a top-notch compressor. i use it aswell, have used it since i found the little baby back in like 98 or something.

btw, trance energy was a blast! have to treat you with this, filmed with my friends digitalcamera. audio quality sucks though... but feeeeeel the energy! :D

Compression, I meant the effect (disable it next time, please, it's cumulative), not the bitrate conversion. Indeed, when 192 is used throughout the mix, the (wav <-> mp3) conversions shouldn't be the problem (or the mp3-computernerds really have their work cut out for them), I think higher bitrate will help with non-digital operations (live mixers) though. When using cables, loss is inevitable (unless impedances match perfectly), but higher bitrate should help there.

DJ Alex, plz send your tune ID to the coverpeople!

Bye :)
