mp3 ............?!
ok wtf
no self-respecting musician of any type is going to cancel a master-tape, for a goddamn MP3 recording!
then the other mook is like "how about WAV?"
and our girl is like "nah"
She explained she wanted to hear what it would sound like in the format most people would hear it in.
shareThen she better buy some cheap airpods that cut off 50% of the frequencies. And yes, one of the reason modern music has sounded so shit is that a lot of artists specifically limit themselves to the frequencies average in-ear headphones can reproduce, because thats how most people listen to music nowadays.
shareI like your criticism. I remember as kids we had endless discussions about the sound quality of Marantz or Revox devices. Nowadays I notice that kids are even satisfied with the sound of the speakers(!) of their smartphones, which sounds like peeing in a tin can...
shareits like listening to music played inside a bucket. Which for phones with aluminium cases is just a reality anyway :)
shareI'm still confused as to the point of this scene, though. What was it telling us about her? Just that she thought differently to most other conductors?
