I have verified that what Will is hearing is what I am presenting.
To be honest I am insulted.
Not because of your comment that the track was experimental. Coming from
you that is kind of a compliment.
But because of your lack of feedback on what I might do to clean up the
sound to make it more palatable for a wider audience.
Anyway, I am resigned to this track not being received well and I will
have to do the required tweaks under my own direction.
At least it is not my favourite track in the session. Perhaps my next
track will get a better reception now that the ice has been broken.
BTW, I'm not looking for approval. That will be a nice addition if it
happens. I'm seeking a purely technical discussion of what can be done
to clean up the sound for a wider range of audio systems.
Cheers.
