    Fascinating insight, what incredibly skilled work by the engineer/producer!

    Please, DGG, include this in the Complete Bernstein Recordings Box!

    Wonderful insight into the art of remastering. Thank you!

    This is a great look into what tape recording was capable of at it's best. Thank you!

    7:00 Meanwhile in Heaven, Bernstein is complaining: "I added the snare-drum for a reason, and they took it out!!!"

    Surround offers more potential than a 2 channel stereo mix, sure. Problem is that most consumers have no idea how to set the sound levels & place the speakers in their room to recreate the concert hall ambience. It's like those 9-band parametric EQs that were all the rage back in the '80s. Most people made their music sound worse with those contraptions than if they had simple bass & treble tone controls.

      Agreed. Most people's 5.1 systems have one big pile of speakers sitting on the floor next to the TV. This sort of thing isn't for those guys though. I think people who really care about 5.1 will take the time to use full-range speakers and set them correctly.

    Thanks Everett/DG
    DG: is it possible to put entire re-mastering of The 9th ? What's DG CD-BD number?

    I specifically recall Leonard Slatkin calling this a conservative reading some 30 years ago on his Global Podium program. I think it's appropriate enough as this movement is a unique juxtaposition of Ottoman Janissary orchestral color and fire with German earnestness.

    If the Symphonies 1 through 8 were recorded in the Grosse Hall of the Vienna Musikverein then why didn't you use a sampling of that hall as the added reverberation to the 9th?

    Very interesting, thank you

    The isolated noise just sounds like a creaking podium or floorboard ... not a snare drum to me at least. Anyway, Izotope RX is some magical stuff for getting rid of such junk!

    Were the recordings done with NR? I noticed the Studer was running at 15ips. At one point I noticed an Otari mtr 90. Which did y'all usually use? And what application are you using?
    Love your videos. Many Thanks

    great

    Most interesting that the CD gives up to 21.000HZ
    But the new remstring shows us that there are more and more frequencies
    above
    Which were not recorded in the CD
    But in the end we get again the CD format published by DGG
    So what can be understood is that there is not much change
    Only if we use Blue Ray
    Or SACD
    I have Beethoven's ninth with top class equipment
    No need for a better format
    Although I noticed that I prefer the examples of the original about what they did
    And anyway
    The concert hall is different from what they originally recorded

  • @frankgyure3154

    SOOOOO...Universal Music Group..why won't you release new and/or remastered Blu-ray/SACD's considering the musical and "sound" advantages?

      My little eye spies coming to Amazon soon a CD/BR version. Patience young Skywalker.

    @thrillscience Před 6 lety +1

    When can I buy the surround mix and what formats will it be on? I only see the CD release of "Bernstein Remastered" on Amazon now (which looks like a great box!)

    • @bubbamike

      December 1st, CD/BR young Skywalker.

    Hi Everett - Please can you have a go at remastering the first movement of Mahler 9 (1985 recording) with your new equipment. Thanks in advance, Michael

    What is this DAW? Why not Pro Tools?

      PYRAMIX is quite industry standard for mastering.

    Is this the recording that kubrick used for clockwork orange?

    • @JoseMLopez-fb1ky

      Kubrick used the Fricsay recording.

    SInce this is how recordings are made today with false recreations of the original acoustics and sound of the natural instruments fewer and fewer people can understand what live music is all about, Artificial sound in the extreme. Ugly ugly ugly. A very sad sad world indeed. Revert back to simple microphone techniques, tube electronics and you will hear more the sound of the original acoustics.
