Thanks to boykun and sh15uya for the FPM. It saves me from uploading the tracks and usurping this thread.
Still I want to explain a few things about my uploads, since I am one these persons with extreme hearing (for instance the 19kHz beeb from the current converter in older tv sets drive me crazy, same for mosquito sound). All by me uploaded albums have the following processing:
I restore the loudness back to original values for 2 reasons, most albums have too big loudness, even back in the vinyl times, the record companies do that on purpose as old fashined DRM to cause copies sound distorted (clipping and hissing). It also disturbs the ratio between the instrument sound and diminish the dynamic range (maximum between the lowest and highest volume (this is called compression)). Restoring the loudness undoes most of these bad sounding artifacts, this of course depend on how distorted it is put on the record by the record companies. You probably noticed that my albums are somewhat less hard sounding, but you can up the volume real far without making it sound bad.
I declick most albums, these are modern algorithms that lower the volume of clicks and pops instead of removing them totally, this will leave the end result sound as crispy as the original unlike older algorithms that removed them and also blurred the sound.
Finally all albums are sampled to 320kbs/41.1kHz MP3 which play on virtually any device out there, I could use better sounding protocols like OGG and 48kHz but the difference is not large enough to pay the price of making less compatible files.
I hope you all appreciate this work, the purpose is not to show off but to try to bring the best sounding albums that I can do.
Next few albums are from various artists to break monotony of the ranges.
