Anyway to get pics up of the non-remastered version of Hotel California to compare? I don't have the CD or currently the software to do it.

It helped a lot. I will keep browsing, and watching... this is pretty interesting..

EDIT: Does anyone know what software the OP used?



Audacity I believe. Exact Audio Copy is another one that can analyze WAVs.

Might want to look at this thread as well: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f9/wha...d-like-143996/

Unfortunately, all the attachments are gone due to the Head-Fi crash.

That waveform of the Eagles remaster doesn't look that bad.There are far,far worst examples unfortunately .Check the Maiden remasters for example

Duggeh, some of the Led Zeppelin "Mothership" songs are remastered pretty good. The BEST by far is "Stairway to Heaven". It's some-what close to that MFSL graph on page one.


But the one I posted was the worst of all the songs I checked. About 40 so far..

Yeah.. I knew NOTHING about this, and I know a little bit in a matter of a few articles.

Also, see the links on page two as well.
