I wouldnt mind if you did a demonstration of loudness as a follow up to this video

[@DanielERodriguezMusic]

Fascinating. I recorded two albums at home. “Self-taught.” But I really got a lot of info from music tech and you guys. It’s hard! But fun.

[@SpongeBoss]

Nice. Starting with the guys from Japan. Good one ☝🏻🥰👌🏻

[@samuelwnovak]

More psychoacoustic education, please. We musicians don’t actively think about it nearly as much as we should

[@Wagoo]

Can't beat a bit of Loudness!! Especially when Akira Takasaki fires into his solos 🎼\m/ Take me away from here forever! \m/🎵 PS: there is no "was", they are still going. Last album out in 2018 :)

[@sweetwater]

Very true, Wagoo! 🤘

[@weschilton]

Haha, I love how you started out this video, Mitch! Very interested topic and a great explanation.

[@AndrewMasters]

Mitch Gallagher is the man.

I like these Professor Mitch videos

For anyone curious about Loudness (the band), check out Law Of Devil's Land (1983) and Disillusion (1984). 🤘🔥⚡

[@bigkickleo]

HAH!! YES!! The band Loudness was awesome - thanks for that bit of nostalgia 🤘🏻

[@dannylemon4159]

Great info. Impressive, concise presentation. Very appreciated.

Finally after so many years, an explanation of what that "LOUDNESS" button on my grandparents hifi audio receiver does. So when LOUDNESS is depressed, the button enables the receiver's hi/lo EQ curve and modifies the EQ's Gain in conjunction with the master volume knob setting?

My fault, I thought this video was about the Japanese heavy metal band "Loudness" one of my favorites of the 80s.I liked their song "Crazy Nights" from the 1985 album Thunder in the East. MZA

[@sweetwater]

Well, the first 20 seconds was, at least 😁🤘

[@EDKguy]

You gave away the secret sauce recipe at Bose

[@pbenson56fran]

Thank you

[@Chord_The_Seeker]

Haha! Well played, Mitch. I was going to make a smart ass comment about the Japanese metal band when I saw the title. I hit play and you made the preemptive strike.

[@sweetwater]

Ha! Thanks for the comment, Chord! And don't worry... plenty of folks commented before hitting play 😁

Jesus love you, he died on the cross for you, accept him as your lord and savior he can change everything. For God so loved the world that he gave his only son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life" (Jn 3:16" But you must repent too. From that time Jesus went about preaching and saying, Let your hearts be turned from sin, for the kingdom of heaven is near. (Matthew 4:17)^

Loudness is what cause brain perception to hear things more in your face without clipping sometimes often can be found on a ozone preset. Maybe the algorithms online as well with the war closely coming to the end when 3D Dolby is coming and new rules set !

[@borderlineguitarguy]

Loudness is what people hear when you are not very good at guitar...

[@Burnt_Gerbil]

Then I am pretty f***ing awesome! 😂

[@Burnt_Gerbil]
