Simple question. Do CD's need to be mastered differently to vinyl, and if so why?
I am listening to a CD now that sounds flat, lifeless and uninvolving. If it was vinyl I know it would struggle NOT to sound dynamic and full of foot tapping emotion.
When a song is mastered properly for CD it does sound good on my system, so I know its not a problem with my system.
So is there something extra or different in the mastering process of a CD that is required to give it that bit of vinyl like life and dynamics?
