irene: a funny story: when i first bought my aphex aural exciter, i was
naively running it on *everything* (full bore, too :)) and wondering why i
didn't notice much of a change in my studio (monitors through a regular ol'
amp). then, at a "party" (with a real soundsystem), i was was playing out
an ae/reloadish track I had just recorded and, no word of a lie, kept
wondering why the windows on the far side of the room had just startled
rattling like you wouldn';t believe. of course i was quickly informed by the
club manager that his speakers were having toomuch of a workout during this
particular tune and could i please "ahh, turn down the bass, you're going to
knock my windows out". it was then that a realized that , *yes*, my aphex ae
*was* working at home--the ae'd results just needed to be heard in the right
audio situation. "duh" andrew :)
