First I want to say that grummyaa is pointing at something.
To classify recordings from the recordist=B4s aim with them, like "this
is a M/S track made with the aim to be used by television and other
commercial purposes with similar demands."
Or "this track in manipulated as good as I can, to fit peoples PC
loudspeakers."
I don't see how such a "declaration of purpose" would ever contradict
freedom of art, or similar.
Anybody?
David,
I will do my best to avoid philosophy here:
if you have a recording that you really want to share with people, as
a good example of what you think is "a good nature sound recording "
- what would you do?
1/ Add it on SoundCloud as it is, - as you hear it -or
2/ postproduce it, so that it fits better to PC loudspeakers and
kitchen radios?
