@zvava Honestly I don't buy lossless for the sound quality. I buy lossless for the preservation.

We've got a shadow library where everything is converted to either MP3 or (if it's already AAC, like our old iTunes music) AAC for our non-FLAC-supporting stuff (PS3 and PS Vita).

@zvava Never felt a post more on the entire fediverse. Literally just... so much is mixed like ASSSS

Exactly why my studio is still in business after 20 continuous years dedicated to mastering audio, to make sure that the reaction after hitting "play" is "ooh, aah" instead of "ugh" - https://totalsonic.net

@zvava@bbs.619.hu Perfect example - the 24/88.2 mix of MCR's Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge.

The 16/44.1 (CD) 2025 mix sounds LEAGUES better.

@zvava@bbs.619.hu this is the real problem with mixing headphones ​​

@zvava@bbs.619.hu unironically some songs just sound better on clapped out speakers

@zvava relatedly the good headphones expectation: "damn i can hear so many subtle details now"

and the good headphones reality: "damn i can tell the producer uses a gaming headset"
