    Upon first listen of the FLAC, I hope the vinyl sounds a lot better. :(

    What's wrong with it?
    Upon second listen with headphones, it sounded better. But it sounds much more compressed compared to the Orpheum recording. The vocals are cranked up way too loud, in my opinion.

    Hmmm, well that is probably the 'mix' they are using for the vinyl but should be mastered to vinyl and well I hope.

    Should've used dubly.

    If the vocals are cranked higher than the instruments doesn't that suggest a lack of compression? Compression makes all the tracks in the recording the same volume level?

    I won't be able to hear this until the vinyl arrives, but I don't like it when vocals are muddled with the instruments, so maybe this mix will be to my liking :)

    My original question was did this show's mix/master get revisited or is it the version that was originally released years back? The original release of this show years back sounds fantastic to my ears, still. Even for a compressed mp3 version.

    I think it's a reference to someone misusing the word Dolby?... I remember something like this, but in a dream-like way... Was it TMZ?? Why do I feel like one of the TMZ hosts said dubly instead of Dolby kind of recently and got made fun of? That might actually be a real memory, but I'm not totally positive, lol!

    :lol: Wtf, never mind. I just remembered why I knew this. Because I happened to watch This Is Spinal Tap a couple of weeks ago! The lead singer's girlfriend (Spinal Tap's Yoko) called Dolby "dubly", and the rest of the Spinal Tap band members made fun of her, lol! I thought maybe TMZ because it seems like something one of those hosts would do. :tongue:
    Okay, so good. SLH is referencing Spinal Tap and NOT TMZ. Phew! :lol:

    (TMZ on TV is pretty funny though. It's actually really satirical, hosted by a bunch of funny comedians, not just some dumb celebrity show. Most people don't know that; they just make assumptions about it without ever having seen it).

    I've never seen Spinal Tap or watched TMZ (thank you Google). I'm only 38, promise. Just not dialed in to the funnies today I guess! Sorry Santos dude! I fucked up your reference and funny! We ditched cable TV earlier about a year ago now and I think my pop culture skills have decreased, badly.
