[1] People who are in denial often accuse others of "misunderstanding, misquoting, and misrepresenting".
[2] You just don't like the fact that I've pushed beyond the smoke & mirrors when it comes to the subjects of loudness and remastering.
[3] I quoted to him exactly things that I've been told on here.
1. True but then I'm not in denial, that's a lie you've just made-up! I have NEVER stated that all masters and re-masters are perfect and I have not denied the loudness war. In fact just a day or two ago in another thread I expressly told YOU that I have been involved in discussing the loudness war with my peers for many years before you even knew it existed. I've also told you more than once that particularly re-masters are quite commonly flawed. Where I strongly disagreed with you was that this was always the fault of the mastering engineer, when in fact it's typically a case of the mastering engineer just following the client's instructions, often against the mastering engineer's advice! Do you have a memory impairment or are you deliberately misrepresenting/lying about what you've been told?
2. Again, you've just made that nonsense up! What I really don't like is the fact that you have almost no understanding of the subjects of loudness or mastering, make-up complete nonsense to try and validate your agenda and then state that you've "pushed beyond the smoke and mirrors". To push beyond the smoke and mirrors, you've first got to push beyond over-simplified headlines and gain some actual basic facts and knowledge, a vital step you refuse to take!
3. That's clearly another lie! What you quoted was either out of context, cherry-picked snippets or "quotes" you've deliberately changed, CERTAINLY
NOT exactly what you have been told!!
You've already discovered that hypocrisy, accusing others of what you're guilty of, is a tactic which fails miserably here, you just end up making yourself look foolish and ignorant. So why are you trying that same tactic yet again? Do you like looking foolish and ignorant? Is that why you troll professional and science/fact based audio forums when you don't have any facts or knowledge?
