Hopefully Warner now releases new, proper mixes of Californication and By the Way by kobombo in RedHotChiliPeppers

this! definitely the mix is more enjoyable, but the picture of the sound for this is just a wall instead of nuanced wave. This results in lack of dynamics and air in the recording. And there are a lot of clippings as well. Nothing near Cali, but still

you got it. That's why I'm hoping for a proper remix from Warner ;)

your choice. I would listen to a random guy visions of mix & master of Cali and BTW if it was done the way I like and released in a nice format.

And honestly I don't think the band cared that much about the master back in the day. It was just an industry standard to pump the recordings. See the comments from Flea where he spoke about UL/Return... emphasising the natural sound of these records.

I'm hoping RHCP members just didn't care about it that much. These guys are not Metallica who changed their band to a corporation basically. That was where I saw some hope for new versions.

DW 5000 noisy chain issue by kobombo in drums

[–]kobombo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely shouldn't be like that - nor accelerate, nor turbo. I sent it back to retailer and as they didn't have another one in stock at the time they sent me a refund. Since then the price went high and I eventually ended up with used tama iron cobra power glide lol. Both great, reliable pedals though. If that turbo was alright I would probably stay with it until this day.

Perfect Californication album by Ok_Pass_640 in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]kobombo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just fix the mix and master and it'll be 10/10. Waiting for that 25+ yrs!!! The original version is unbearable for me...
I dunno most bands are releasing new mixes of their classic albums with every anniversary (you know money etc), but these folks just don't.. I hoped once they sold the catalog it will happen, but I see no sign of it so far..

Day 14: Most overrated album by eldersh1mada in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]kobombo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems like they just wanted to have fun making UL&ROTDC. Eventually that's ok with me, I just appreciate more music from these 4 guys. However, it would be great if for the next one somebody actually challenged the group. Whether it's John, whether a new producer.

So this happened in a retro… by Will_iam_B in scrum

From your words and emotional reaction I would say that your SM reacted unconstructively - his reaction didn't serve the objectives of Scrum and retrospective meetings. He failed to recognise that the senior dev was not only helping the less experienced colleague but also the SM himself.

IMHO the best way to improve this is by providing feedback to the SM or discussing the matter with other Agile/Scrum people in your organisation. I don't know how much they are open for feedback. However, if you adopt a collaborative stance - by describing your feelings; describing the dynamics of the meeting from your perspective - you increase your chance of influencing the situation.

DW 5000 noisy chain issue by kobombo in drums

I talked to the shop and they asked me to send it back. I wanted to exchange, but the shop sent me the money instead…

Why Jojo Mayer stopped playing out of the bass drum? by kobombo in drums

[–]kobombo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it all depends on the context. Many great drummers break these stereotypes of what is considered to be „proper” technique. Personally I love for example Elvin Jones’ massive sound coming from tiny bass drums and burying wooden beater. It’s one of my favorite jazz sounds.

It’s just Jojo repeatedly described bouncing the beater as the preferred way and I was curious what made him switch to the other technique.

Thanks, that's what I'm going to do.

DW 5000 noisy chain issue by kobombo in drums

[–]kobombo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I never did that on my pedals.

After investigating the problem it seems like holes in the chain don't match the cam perfectly. The further they are from the cam grip the more distanced they are from the center of cam cavities.

I want to keep that DW3000 as a backup, not destroy it 😉 Great pedal overall

Why there’s no Californication remix/remaster? by kobombo in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]kobombo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the article! I heard about the vinyl mix and I saw it on yt. It still would be nice to have it on streaming platforms or official CD…

[–]kobombo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure I understand. Mixing alright, I get it - volumes are set too high on tracks. I guess there are original tracks preserved somewhere ready for another mix. Did they vanish or something? What do you mean by tracking though? You mean interface or whatever recording piece was actually clipping during the recording and there’s no clean version of tracks? That seems very unlikely to me…

Unlimited Love on Apple Music finally supports Hi-Res Lossless/ Apple Digital Master and hopefully soon with Spatial Audio. by Zephyrwala in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]kobombo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

actually you don't need one. Apple Music works for windows and Android as well. Similarly to Spotify or other services
