Why is most everything remastered?


It's becoming more and more difficult to find what sound signature was originally meant by the artist. I have examples that sound terrible after remastering. I understand why it has to be this way, If and only it improves the original, if not... leave it alone!

Remastering is done for three reasons.

  • The first is to boost the highs to make them irritating.
  • The second is to compress out all the dynamics to get a modern sound.
  • The third is to sell more CDs. NEW! IMPROVED! BUY NOW!
