Hi Dolf,

I am happy because it means I wasn't going mad. Subtle changes to systems can often fool us. But, this one is not so subtle. You describe cardboard boxes; I said taking the shine off. Same thing I guess.

I am unhappy because I suspect that M have simply implemented the same technique as we un-did with the +3dB fix. Their response IIRC was that we're mad and it's just louder.

BLLX to that notion. You cannot and must not cut resolution to achieve volume changes.

I must have spent a week wondering why my system didn't sound like it should until I 'discovered' the levelling.

I'll be delighted to be educated should M feed any details through if I am mistaken. It seems so bizarre that with the brains, research and critical ear that HQ don't spot this (again).


Rgds,
Nick
