Hi All, I got a very serious listenning on the mix using MP3 files, I got the download link this afternoon.
Here is my review :
1. Global feeling is that the sound is very compact, making all instrument sometime difficult to hear or to clearly identify
2. I'm not really finding the live aspect of a concert, public is too low except between songs where it seems to be higher
3. Mark's guitar and voice are in my opinion too in front comparing to other instruments making sometime the feeling to be like in 'ear monitor' sound
4. The mix between instuments is very strange, changing from a song to another, and not reflecting the great mix we have in concert
5. Bass sound is really too loud, making sometime the sound really hard to appreciate
So definitively, I'm not very satisfied with the result. Could be quite good to listen on speaker but very hard with headphones.
Why Bother? Tour
I really love this tour, already seen two shows, two more shows to come for me. On scene, the mix between instruments, voices is really perfect, sound is really good.
I just feel that what I have with this first recording of 2019 is not reflecting the quality of the shows, and this tour deserve a better sound. That's my view.
I know the real pleasure I have to listen again to old shows I have been since 1992, just seating and listening to them.
Sound quality for these recordings is key to reexperiment the pleasure of been part of those shows and tours.
When we see the incredible quality of MK records, he's known for that, it's a pity to have such 'amateur' work for these live recordings.
