I listened to "08 Love Me Like A River Does" again using computer, TASCAM MKII (running ASIO) and headphones. You can hear "distortion" all through that track. It happens again at 0:52 to 1:00, 1:48 to 1:58 and 3:12 to 3:16 (no where near clipping). I doubt it's a bad rip because it does the same thing in same situation each time during the song. One instrument was recorded too loud, probably too close to Mic and clipped at the recording. CD is not clipping badly and is not the cause of what your hearing nor is +3dB tweak. +3dB Tweak brought out every flaw in this recording.


- Fiddler (IMHO)

If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.
