Hi Mario,

 

Thanks for your generous offer. Codes for Albéniz and the Flamenco would be greatly appreciated.

Please provide me with a code for the drums. Thanks again for your generosity, Mario.

Hi Mario. HNY! Please send a code for the rock recording.

[goldsdad]

I am very interested that you do hear these samples with the filter, if it works we should be able to make truthful rock recordings too

 

Hi Mario, I'm keen to hear the filtered sound. Please send a link. Thanks again.

I just uploaded a normalized version of the drums and rock samples.

 

I did apply that low cut filter I was talking about and it does make all the difference. I also applied a limiter and brought the volume 8dB up. I think this time we might be on to something

 

Who wants to try?

 

Yes, please!

First thing I did was run some tests to try to figure out what the source of the problem was. I measured the hall again this time focusing on the response under 100Hz. The problem is the same as before. The drums and bass have so much power under 100Hz that they are overriding the acoustic structures built on the hall to control room modes at those frequencies.

 

Instead of applying a low cut, I have used the results of this 2nd measurement to develop a filter that would correct this deviation. I have applied this new filter to the "after measurement" version of the Drums and Rock samples. This new "2nd measurement" version is 3dB louder than the "after measurement" version without the use of any dynamic range compression. If it does work we would have our first Rock "Truthful Masters".

 

Who wants to try?

 

Once again, thanks for the offer, Mario. Please send the link.
