Listening to ... in "Synthesized Surround" in 5.0 (sans SubWoofer)

[kap'n krunch]

a f*cking classic album...strange it has never had a vinyl treatment...

Love me that Foobar upmix to 5.1 function!

This is an incredible sounding album and quite solid musically too.. and to think that it was basically the first album to be recorded on Macs; I think they were synched cause one machine was not enough...I found a version with an extra version of "The Calling"
Sounds totally immersive on the Foobar "upmix to 5.1" function...

and , to what to me is the last REAL Yes album, curiously with Trevor H at the helm...

 

[kap'n krunch]

really gorgeous arrangements and beautiful guitar playing...recorded in Abbey Road, it fulfills my prerequisite of how to cover a song (do it VERY differently from the original)...

a JEWEL that I was introduced to by a departed friend who took his own life for unrequited love, an American living in Ciempozuelos, good ole John Odell, may his spirit rest in peace....quite an introduction to a CLASSIC album, totally underappreciated.. like John's love...

Now that’s a bittersweet story, more bitter than sweet.

Now it's time for some more APP... three tracks from TToaFC (the Time Orchestra and extra ones with guitar solos instead of Orchestra) and a great upmix by a QQ member of "Stereotomy"...was also listening to "Gaudí" earlier...might go to EitS after this-I bought it when it came out and the LP cover features the gorgeous gold silkscreened Eye of Horus...

so , no wonder it sounds great in faux MCH... cause of the SPATIALIZER 3d Stereo stuff that was invoked in a candomblé by ES

Is that from the LP Kap? I've only got a US CD version and it's mastered a bit rough IMO. But that's very interesting for sure!

Found this at the Salvation Army and even though I had never heard of her, I saw it was on the Narada label and that it features a song from "Crash" called "In the deep", and well, she is a gorgeous Taurus (most Taurus women are gorgeous.. like my wife!)...I ripped it and I am very impressed, and I am not easily impressed!!!
Love the style...and her voice is quite mellow...

another member mentioned this being great in faux surround and I will have to wholeheartedly agree...it sounds like it WAS Mixed in DPLII...it's from 1993 so it might be a "stealth Q Sound" mix....I love me some-or a LOT- of Maestro Jean-Luc!

this "upmix to 5.1" Foobar function is the cat's meow!
First...

then,

(AMAZING!)

..and now, have not heard this in FOREVER!

 

[kap'n krunch]

in your Cadillac! (bought the normal one when it came out...still have it!)

Effects without a cause...also bought the normal one (purple translucent plus the 45 with Murder by numbers, which was also purple translucent!) when it came out...

Matthew Herbert’s Friday release called The Horse is phenomenal in 5.0 DPLII. I listened to it yesterday at work on headphones and knew it was going to be special in DPLII.

 

[kap'n krunch]

am in a Basia groove (yes, I am a SUCKER for Libra women with great voices),,
found this and got it.. really interesting...basically wgere she left off with Danny White, Peter White and Dave Bascombe mixing!

and, BTW, this week is gonna be one of the few times I will listen to 5.0 exclusively cause there is positive change in the air!

I know of a handful of recordings that utilized Spatializer...that were not on Telarc...and that TOTO album is not one of them.
Good find , kap'n.

it's all GOS's fault!
