Great mixing quality with the Soundtrack!
« on: September 17, 2008, 06:05:47 pm »
Hey, i just for the first time listened to the soundtrack with balanced and accurate studio monitors, and i've got to say: Thank you for not overcompressing (dynamic range compression) the soundtrack and bothering with creating a wide stereofield. This kind of mixing is rare among nowadays music and even more rare in videogames. I loved the soundtrack already before, but with accurate and balanced speakers, it sounds even more impressive, instead of worse.... awesome work!

Well, the thing with studio monitors is that they do not sound "cool", but honest and accurate. Thats why something which sounds okay on boomboxes doesn't necessarily also sound okay on "honest" speakers. If something however does sound good on studio monis, then you're usually in for a great experience, as is the case with the aquaria music.

Thanks, that's quite the compliment. :)
