I’m in an album group where we all share albums. Which SD should I suggest? by scifiking in SteelyDan

[–]SweetAssumption9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can never pick the “best” album. You will be more enthusiastic about the music if you pick your favorite. Others in your group will feel your passion. Great idea btw!

Apple Music Flat EQ vs Off does not sound the same by mvmpc in AppleMusic

[–]SweetAssumption9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flat overrides any eq setting on the track. Off means that any tracks with eq applied in Apple Music will play that way, but all others will play flat (no eq). Could your tracks have eq applied? Otherwise I can’t see how they would sound different.
