New Fan Song Added: Bohemian Rhapsody

"Don't let them draw you Adam, they are talking bollocks and they know it.Forget speakers and headphones, you either like it or you don't."

There's a lot more to enjoying things than merely deciding if you like them or not. Some people actually like to analyze things as opposed to dismissing them immediately. It seems you aren't one of those people, so don't criticize someone who is.

But since you seem to know me and my motives so incredibly well, why even bother posting furthermore on this matter of headphones vs speakers...?

I'll just say that certain stereo panning techniques are heard differently in headphones than from two speakers beside one another... ie, hard left wouldn't seem so hard left, would it?

You were talking about pannings? Well obviously that'll sound different! I was referring to when you said,

Who in their right mind puts their speakers together?? But comparing headphones and speakers when it comes to pannings is a very strange thing to bring up.

Look, if you meant the pannings then, fair enough. But it shouldn't change the feel of the track. And it can never sound any better or worse, that's down to your imagination.

Peace,

I cant believe what I am reading in here. Obviously Sebastian have put a lot of effort into this recording. I think its well done, but of course I prefer the original.

In fact hard left doesn`t sound so exaggerate in big (2 ft high) speakers, whilst on headphones it does sound different. Same as for that annoying effect I gave the crah cymbal - everytime it`s being hit, it pans from left to right several times. On the big cuadraphonic speakers it was ok, but in headphones it`s weird

what's 'hard left'?

whoa! thats kwwwwwl! i think the queen members would be interested to hear such a parculiar version. it doesnt stick to the usual bo rhap formula which is very intersting. the beginning sort reminds me of a georgian choral piece. good effort mate, hats off- it is a very very difficult song to do, especially to do right! :)

Chicken,

When you listen to something in stereo, you know that some parts are in the middle, some are partially off to one side, and some are way off to one side. 'Hard left' is the very limit of the left channel.

I'm sure you know this, but just didn't know the actual terminology for it. I didn't know the term myself until a couple weeks ago, and I've been recording for years! :P

I just call it 'all the way to the right' :)

Yeah, that's how I always thought of it too... :)
