is that a new myth about masterin?? or did u figured it all out by urself??

The individual tracks are long gone, I only have the stereo mix to work with.
it reminds me of my own poo...terrible, hopeless, pointless...stop accepting dog poo....if this is a charity work fine.... do whatever u like with ur free time but if u are charging $$ to do this crap, it will come back to hound you when ppl read the credits. Even when the artist is of great importance u are better off not to be associated with a project that was ridiculously recorded and mixed...maybe if these were the unreleased first original demos from John Lennon or The Beatles or artists like that, it would be different story......Again that mix is a big turd...to me dog poo...no matter what u'll do to it will never sound right, so smoothing that hideous mid range and declipping the file it's imo all u can do ....

that's an insult to some real MEs on this forum, no?? ...u shoud know better than to touch sh*t with ur bear hands....ur master is just as horrible as the mix itself only worse 'cause u added mud and useless sub bass frequencies (waht makes u think that's the correct eq for that style anyway??).......sorry unacajesse i kno tha's not wah u wanna hear.........
