Giving this a listen with an open mind. https://i.imgur.com/dTg02c0.png Roon is showing a track gain of -16.9dB so there is not much dynamic range available which rarely presdipsoses me an album. On first listen it certainly isn’t execrable and has a certain charm. .sjb Must say I was impressed wit...

Never really got into Traffic as the lights were always red :) Very good lol! Though I clearly remember when when I first got Lizard and, incidentally, Ege Bamayasi as well. I was horrified when I listened at home. No recognisable guitar solos on either albums. Avant Garde jazz on Lizard. WTF!!!! W...

Thanks jrling - do you use WAV for editing or some sort of pro audio purpose?

I downloaded an audio file converter and CD ripper called FRE:AC the other day which allows the user to convert from virtually any file format to any other file format: https://www.freac.org/ - an upgrade to the software was introduced a few weeks back. "fre:ac is a free audio converter and CD ...

The album is better than the official bootleg B'Boom, which represented early live performances. However, disc two ...
