That's the nature of vinyl, vinyl and CD are mastered differently. I usually buy CD's since I'm not a DJ who has to rely on vinyl and the music is properly mastered for digital audio there's also the convenience factor.

I wouldn't recommend it, I hate when people process vinyl mixes with EQ or plug-Ins. Just record the mix dry (a good sound card helps) and let people adjust the EQ on their stereo. If you notice vinyl mixes sound better recorded to tape, that usually makes things a little warmer. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
