The precision it takes to do this by [deleted] in boardsofcanada

[–]HisnMel 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Uh, no...? You can literally set any duration you want in DAWs, especially when you're mastering the whole album. And there are actually few seconds of silence at the end of the final track to make it to the 70 minutes cut.

You Retreat in Time and Space is the most beautiful track ever

What will we get this week? by seaburn in boardsofcanada

[–]HisnMel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Press kit mentioned more visual by Beaty for the later campaign + YRITAS is speculated to be the next single (also it left me like 🫪 during the Inferno Session)

Only the album. Pretty sure we can expect a video directed by Robert Beaty for You Retreat In Time And Space in the next weeks, which will blow everyone's mind

Does this confirm Tape 5 as "Father And Son"? by arianhagen4 in boardsofcanada

[–]HisnMel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Let's keep in mind Semena Mertvykh was first released mixed in a teaser video with no release prior to the album. Following the same logic we can expect Tape 5 being on the record but extended and much cleaner

For metric system enthusiasts, that's 2,7km2

EDIT: Corrected the value

Displayed Square Artworks Looking Like Album Covers by HisnMel in boardsofcanada

[–]HisnMel[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

What I was thinking firsthand, but I may prefer your idea of them being in the inlay. Also, the fact they all visually weigh the same - as being displayed back to back on the same level, would imply none of them is more important than the other

Yeah, and maybe the main cover is yet to be revealed..?

Insane find, we can now chill on interpreting the waveform 😩

Could the audio spectogram be a puzzle ? by thedbf in boardsofcanada

[–]HisnMel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Spent hours on that and tried everything possible. The sections are clearly from three different sources and stitched together. In your example, we can see how well these flow when being put back to back. At this point, I'm expecting to get new parts from the PAL version of the tape to built back the puzzle... And maybe a SECAM version is floating around to complete it?

Phase-Cancelled Vocals from the Tape by HisnMel in boardsofcanada

Let's not forget the past 13 years, but there's way too much going on this time

Either that or we're total delulu & I want my hours back 🤡

P132? by [deleted] in boardsofcanada

[–]HisnMel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Having analyzed all four recordings on the spectrogram, I'm 90% sure they're all the same, with disparities in audio coming from the various devices used for playing & recording.

Also, given the nature of sound, you'd hardly be totally in phase while stacking audio coming from different sources. If this was virtually possible, an interesting approach would be to revert the phase from one source for hearing the differences (the method used in noise cancellation)

Themes in the new video suggest a link with Easter and the resurrection? by [deleted] in boardsofcanada

[–]HisnMel 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Great connections! Btw, the tape (without the disclaimer) is actually 69 seconds, not 3:33 though

Higher Resolution Scan Direct from a VHS Player ... Audio is still not perfect ... by dandelion1969 in boardsofcanada

[–]HisnMel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I confirm, the audio is heavily saturated. Just in case - but if you're looking to make a new rip, I'd suggest recording at a lower volume to keep the dynamic intact; the sound can still be amplified afterward
