  1. I really can't cope with the auto tune on this album. It's dreadful. Whoever did it should never be employed for such a job again. Literally, one of the biggest rock albums anyone in this day and age could work on... and it sounds like it does. I think the mix of the album is all over the place. Some tracks are brilliant, and others are just a little off... It seems like Mutt just got 'his guy' to tune all the vocals, and he just put it through Auto-Tune EFX or something, didn't touch the settings, or even try to do it properly in melodyne, and was like 'ere ya gan mate, i'm off gotta get home for the footy' And then to top it all off, the whistles are actually out of tune in the globalist, and they left them alone. WHAT IS GOING ON. Muse essentially have unlimited budget. Surely matt can't think his vocals need the tuning, or at least the horrible automatic tuning you hear on the album. You can tune vocals to the point of undetectable-ness with practice/experience. I let it slide on the singles, thought oh maybe it's just an effect he wants for the story... but it's just not right. Not right i say. Also, the guitars are clipping (and not in a nice way) on songs like Pyscho, The Globalist. And I'm on the HD audio version in my fully treated mix room and Adam A7x monitors. It's a real shame. HOWEVER. Overall, I am enjoying myself. Especially the first half of the album. I think it's very powerful and worth it just for Reapers, The Handler, Pyscho, Defector. Good times.
  2. If I were on death row, this gig would have been my last meal. Holy shit. Fuck me sideways, amazing set, amazing crowd. And that circle pit for knights was sweet.
  3. *slow clap* That's not the point i'm making at all
  4. just in case anyone else is wondering... the HD audio is just as compressed as the regular 16 bit version. Consider me highly highly disappointed.
  5. Is the mastering softer on the HD audio or is it the same? Thanks
  6. anyone bit the bullet on the HD US order yet? Really hoping its a softer master like 2nd Law.. that truly sounds fantastic. But I don't want to pay all that money for a pre-order only to get the same limited-to-fuck master of the 16bit version.
  7. 'Digital Download: available as MP3s and high definition FLAC 24bit 96khz audio files.' When I go to checkout, there is no mention of the FLAC files. I'm really after a FLAC copy of 'Psycho'. Can anyone confirm that you actually get this when you pre-order?
  8. This is just crazy. Hopefully it'll be a decent rock crowd, I'm ready to go crazy. The crowds are just so tame these days! This should really be electric! Can't wait
  9. newcastle as in cineworld boldon? I thought it was incredible, apart from one annoying crowd participant!
  10. So i've been dabbling in Melodyne on some tracks... this one's particulary hilarious! Cheers can't remember the embed code for videos sorry
  11. missed this whole thing! Does anyone have any mens M they are willing to sell??
  12. ..... yeah. what it says really. Used stockholm syndrome riffs throughout...
  13. don't think it has anything to do with the band's sound or musical direction. prices get higher every year, they covered most of the UK with an arena tour only a few months before and I think that was the biggest problem. that and the shitty support acts that warner force them to go on tour with. Apart from EE, they should have played every stadium date! Only half-decent band that Muse have shared a stage with in forever!!!
  14. Yeah... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXLUzqsBbWM
