That’s unrelated to vinyl vs cds
- danhor 6y agoNot for the reason GP mentioned, but you can increase the loudness much more on CDs than on vinyl, since on vinyl the needle physically jumps out if the loudness is constantly high, so it needs to be mastered with more dynamic range. There is also the thing that the high bitrate/high sampling rate masterings sound much better in that regard, since they target a different audience
- kasabali 6y agoSure, if you deliberately refuse to interpret the context. Vinyl releases have a different target market and are mastered with more fidelity in mind, while CD releases are mainstream, and have been mastered with small dynamic range for decades because of the loudness war. I'm surprised I had to spell this out explicitly. https://www.yoursoundmatters.com/vinyl-vs-cd-in-the-loudness-war/ https://www.yoursoundmatters.com/vinyl-vs-cd-in-the-loudness...
