Drew's Notes : This took countless hours to do this. I don't know if it should have taken that long, but it did. I used Larry's feed (Sharebear's "bonus") minimally. It really helped on the drums. On most tracks you won't even be able to tell it is there, but it does have a strong presence, especially on "Streets". Once the song gets going, you'll hear the interesting synth that was on Larry's feed. I think it sounds awesome. I considered throwing in a version without Larry's feed on that song, but it didn't sound nearly as full as it should, so I didn't include it. The one drawback to Larry's feed is the Metronome is really loud, that is why that feed is a lot lower in the mix, and in some cases, I took it out altogether on some songs because it was too much. Yahweh sounds fantastic, it is one of the best sounding versions around! The acoustic guitar on that track is excellent, sounds like you are standing right next to the Edge.
I did some EQ on all 5 sources, it varied depending on what I thought each needed. Larry's feed received the least amount, just because I didn't want the metronome to be louder than it already was.
I couldn't remove some of the static that is present in the IEM's, but it isn't that annoying as it is in some other's floating around. Overall, I'd give this one 10 out 10, a must have, and an upgrade from Sharebear's matrix.
Again, thanks to the tapers, especially Sharebear! And please don't convert this to mp3 except for your personal use. Don't share lossy versions, Lossless only please or I'll stop making these great matrices. |
