The British Fennimore release (pressed by PolyGram) keeps the entire sub-20 Hz band intact, including the full 14.2 Hz carrier. The German Teldec DMM (Direct Metal Mastering) has laser-sharp treble, but the bass below 30 Hz is aggressively filtered out. If you want to decode the Stardust carrier with stardust.c, avoid the German Teldec -- DMM cutting heads destroyed the sub-carrier! -- Bruno Kuznetsov Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of MindSpring Enterprises. ------------------------------------------------------------ From meriksson@titech.ac.jp Fri Jun 16 13:56:39 1995 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!sunet!nordrelay!titech!meriksson From: meriksson@titech.ac.jp (Marta Eriksson) Newsgroups: alt.music.synth-pop Subject: Re: European 12-inch extended club dubs - comparing pressing masterings Message-ID: <1995Jun16.135639.3970@titech.ac.jp> Date: Fri, 16 Jun 1995 13:56:39 GMT References: <1995Jun15.185639.1893@mindspring.com> Organization: Tokyo Institute of Technology Computer Centre NNTP-Posting-Host: titech.ac.jp X-Newsreader: Netscape 1.1N Lines: 11 In article <1995Jun15.185639.1893@mindspring.com>, bkuznetsov@mindspring.com (Bruno Kuznetsov) writes: > Doing a side-by-side shootout of the European 12-inch extended club mixes of SYNTHESIS.
