@luxyaltz219 I really appreciate your comments and hope the record companies don't sue me for enhancing these recordings! I don't mean any disrespect toward the studios.
Most of ONJ's music needs no enhancing and they would probably be ruined if they were. It's just a select few that I noticed could be enhanced for maximum listening pleasure. The verse with the clapping offers something more --the song should be building up as it goes on and the added clapping does that nicely!
GREAT JOB!!! LOVE IT!! I will beg to differ with you on being the biggest fan....:)) i absolutely love Olivia and listen to her everyday! I saw her in concert at Chastain Park in Atlanta, with wine and cheese, so quaint on a blanket just pure enjoyment!!
Loved this song..and the year is right on. She looks like my third grade homeroom teacher, blond hair, tall white boots...was as in love as a 3rd grader could be...and, "If Not For Her"...my enthusiasm for good grades might never have been found... :-0
Incredible job on the production. Best sounding mix of anything I've ever heard on YouTube. Crisp, clean sounds; great mix. From a mid-ability home recordist, I'm curious: What did you do to get it like this? Great, great, great.
I have to tell you that the quality I hear played back on youtube is only have as clear as the original wave file plus it has much more volume. That recording would almost blow your headphones out! I wish I could upload that kind of quality to Youtuve. So as good as it might sound to you fans it is a let down when I hear the comparison. It sounds clean and crisp cause I used a digital copy and restored the high frequency range with a digital EQ , added a 3 band compressor and stereo reverb.
@jackstpaul Specific answer to that question! The CD's are disappointing in that they lack compression and proper equalization--that is--"Flat as a pancake and muddled". That is why I loved listening to FM radio back in the 70's. Compress but don't over compress that it clips. You need a 50/50 mix of compression and dynamics. Then up the equalization on the high end (last 3 bands) and then add some studio reverb. I use a pair of Sony MDR-NC7 headphones for all my recordings!
Excellant job!!!!!!! Thank-you very much!!!!!

The start of my love affair with the music of Livvy back in 1971..I think Bob Dylan wrote this poetic song..
