The Loudness War

Big-name CD manufacturers are distorting sounds to make them seem louder. Sound quality suffers. NOTE: Playback is now disabled on mobile phones because these devices apply their own dynamic range compression, which destroys the effect of my example. This video was made with image editing software and a screen capture program for the visuals, and a DAW (Digital Performer 4.5) to process the audio. Thanks to everyone for watching! – Matt Mayfield, St. Paul, Minnesota, USA
