OK, I downloaded a second time and it still glitched on track 3. I downloaded again today and that problem is gone.
Alas, the fidelity is still very much lacking. For one, the levels are so low. I am having to turn up the gain by some 10 dB to get it close to my normal listening volume.
Perhaps related, the sound is so muffled/recessed. It sounds like the piano was covered with a blanket and the microphone placed outside of that. Being DSD I can't analyze it with my audio workstation tool so not sure what is going on here.
There is an environment hiss/noise that while a bit helpful in giving some sense of space (there is little otherwise), it doesn't seem to have much other redeeming value.
Maybe I am grumpy from nearly damaging my amps/speakers with those pops
. But overall, this is not what I expect from high-resolution music production where every aspect from recording to delivery was under control.
Has anyone else bought the track and can provide a more informed opinion than this classical illiterate that is me?
