Quick question, why the fuck aren't we using sone/critical band meters instead of LUFS/Crest/RMS meters to describe the "loudness" of a given piece of music? I understand that the sone scale was meant to describe acoustic loudness as opposed to electronic loudness...

After quitting my job and becoming fully feral I will be dedicating most of my time to porting Reaper to Red Star OS.
In the middle of an abandoned city, a decommissioned robot sits quietly among the ruins. It’s screen flickers with the last echoes of the old world, a witness to all the moments lost. • My 2nd EP ‘All the Moments Lost’ is out now on Soundcloud & Bandcamp! • Mastering by @mattdavis808.bsky.social

Super papa-bless to big dog baller and legitimate electricity wizard Dan Lavry for creating the only device I've ever come across in my mastering career that I have ever ascribed any degree of real mysticism to.

#dubsky #edm #mastering #bassmusic Unhinged Rant Of The Day: Cross-platform translation is sometimes overrated. If you're making a deep dub anthem and want your pure sine sub to stay pure, don't saturate it, fuck those guys that don't have subs, maybe this tune isn't FOR them.

That feeling of disgust you experience when you read far enough into a person's post to realize it's a copy/pasted chain letter.
