The Beatles Let it be remix


Recommended Posts

I got the new remixed Let it Be record today that Giles Martin did.
I notice the kick drum has more low end punch that the older mix. The Elec piano and guitars are more balanced. In the old mix the high hat was too loud and was louder than the snare....this was corrected . Vocals a little more forward. They did not mess with the panning and kept the overall sound it similar to the original. There is no obvious enhanced spacial effect thankfully.. This mix is much more enjoyable just with the improved drums mix alone. There is less background recording noise. It's a quiet recording.

Good summation. Agree.

Have the deluxe version, and some of the outtakes and demos are worthwhile.

Main listening (small home office):

Main setup: Surge protector +>Isol-8 Mini sub Axis Power Strip/Isolation>QuietPC Low Noise Server>Roon (Audiolense DRC)>Stack Audio Link II>Kii Control>Kii Three (on their own electric circuit) >GIK Room Treatments.

Secondary Path: Server with Audiolense RC>RPi4 or analog>Cayin iDAC6 MKII (tube mode) (XLR)>Kii Three .

Bedroom: SBTouch to Cambridge Soundworks Desktop Setup.
Living Room/Kitchen: Ropieee (RPi3b+ with touchscreen) + Schiit Modi3E to a pair of Morel Hogtalare. 

All absolute statements about audio are false :)

Hi firedog,

 

have you ripped the highres version of the original album from the Blu-Ray Disc? If yes, is it an audible improvement over the plain CD version? I read the Blu-Ray highres version is supposed to have a DR +2 higher (average DR: 11) than the CD (average DR: 9).

 

Best regards

Stefan

I've not listened to or ripped the CD. I ripped the BR and it does have a DR of 11.
