Q: i was on a boat, once, and the engine was loud as hell. for the most part i couldn't hear shit over that engine, but firework by katy perry was playing, despite this huge humming in the background i could make out the lead vocal perfectly. so now when i arrange i include a master setting for "in a boat or weirdly loud car", and i would rate it as making my songs 'somewhat stronger'. do u do something similar
A: it's interesting you mention that, because i just yesterday received the news that the loudness war is over, but you make a good point that we still need to compress things tight enough so they still work on a motorboat or tractor what have you
