A few were with a VS 880--and then moved to the 1680 --and finally the 2480 captured a few of the tunes..

It does sound like there is chorus and/or phaser on everything. Usually when no one replies, though, its because they don't like it... in the interests of honesty, I will admit I'm not really a fan of the material, the lyrics, the apparent lack of a center in the stereo image, the drum and bass performances, and the fact that there are time based effects on everything, or at least it sounds that way. The balances sound good, I mean, I can hear everything. Its just not my bag :(

I'm trying to be precise and constructive with my criticisms, but yeah, generally when you bump something 4 times and no one replies, just try posting a different track or something.

Peace and love,
Mike

I listened to Long Time. Hard to judge a song from a 32 kbs mono MP3, but what I'm hearing sounds good. Very pro mix and arrangement. A lot of passion in the vocals. The violin bit adds some nice spice.

this is the word from CD Baby :::

"You're listening to a mono, streamed, lo-fi mp3, Bob. That's what's up
with that. But we make them like that so the files are small enough to
load on dial up connections. Gotta include everyone, you know?"
