jheeze i wish you guys would just get over it, it doesn't change the quality of the music

>>52657758
Changes the feel, though. Sometimes it's good to bump up the silent parts, but in music that's supposed to be emotional it's stupid

>>52657758
>it doesn't change the quality of the music

How fucking dumb can you actually be.

Volume dynamics are a core part of what makes music interesting.

>>52657758

A lack of dynamics hurts music more than low bitrate compression

you know there's something wrong when there are plugins with names like "Soundgoodizer" that are basically one-knob compressors.

This.

This album won the loudness war.

WARNING: TURN YOUR SOUND ALMOST ALL THE WAY DOWN

NOT LOUD ENOUGH

>implying peaked wave form means there is inherently more dynamics in the music.

If I record Jazz at full fucking volume you will hear more dynamics than your audiophile nickelback cd even though there will be clipping.

Loudness war is cool as fuck. Stick to your Steely Dan and Evanescence records.

98% of people that complain about the loudness war own a steely dan record and love it for its "rich dynamics"

>2015
>still believing in the Loudness War myth
it's like believing 24bit/192hz music is superior

>>52657758
But it does. Although the worst thing about it isn't so much the lack of dynamic range as the clipping distortion.

>>52657906
Much more.

Funny how not even fucking amplitude graphs make it clear to them that this shit fucks up music.

I guess the majority of people is just dumb

Except it sounds like shit you idiot.

High compression music also leads to loss of hearing sensitivity over time.

Enjoy your ear damage retard.

>non-dynamic music is good
fucking memerap fans

itt: shit people wouldn't even notice let alone complain about had some autismal mastering engineer or fervent KVR shitposter not made it his own personal jihad and brought it into the public eye

>>52661550
Just turn it down you dummy.

>>52661416
Are you claiming this is an offender or an exception to the loudness war? Because songs like Tropic of Cancer and Lonely Wanderer have plenty of dynamics.

I'm going to officially diagnose you with Retard Ears

>>52658749
who needs ears anyway

>>52661599
These losers spend more time analyzing waveforms than actually enjoying music.

Most good music is recorded poorly.

wow, I can't believe people who supposedly listen to music can be that fucking deaf to not hear a difference between a record with silent and loud parts and records that got their silent parts MAXED OUT TO MAXIMUM LOUDNESS.

at this point i don't know anymore who's actually trolling and who's actually dumb as a rock

>Still confusing high compression with volume

Turning it down won't prevent hearing sensitivity loss you idiot. There are 2 types of damage:

1. Ear drum damage due to high volume music

2. Hearing sensitivity loss due to high compression music

Do not confuse the two things.

nah, but i know that there is something wrong when the "silent" part is horribly loud

>>52662898
Why? What's wrong with that?

>>52662683

Why do you think ear fatigue from compression often leads to pain in the inner ear? Do you think your ear gets a pain for no reason? It's to tell you that damage is occurring.

If you keep submitting yourself to constant fatigue-inducing sounds, the damage will be cumulative over time (and permanent).

>Why do you think ear fatigue from compression often leads to pain in the inner ear?
Gonna need a citation
>Do you think your ear gets a pain for no reason?
It's from extreme volume, not compression.
>fatigue-inducing sounds
Listening to dynamic music for prolonged periods will also create ear fatigue. It's not limited (no pun intended) to compression.

what about constant and non-dynamic music of a middle volume
