How long is a string? This makes my hair hurt. I strive to make our productions a bit open, “airy” if you will due my objective of having a small live band feel. My wave forms tend toward the first example. I always use a multiband compressor to preserve the dynamics. The platforms we are on, Apple, Spotify, YouTube, Pandora, Amazon, Google, etc., can “have at it” and do what they do with our tunes. Trying to create optimized versions for each platform would suck a lot of the fun outa recording for us. The most success we’ve had is the licensing of 22 songs by Mood Media via Songtradr. They are the biggest provider of overhead music and I don’t have a clue how they process songs. They are paying us more than we anticipated so I guess we’ve stumbled into doing the limiting “right” as least as far as they are concerned.  Bud

I too am put off by the in-your-face approach. I listen to Miles Davis' Kind of Blue and think it wouldn't even be released by today's standards. You need some space to hear what's there.
Congratulations on your success.

HUH? WHAT DID YOU SAY?  What is a song without dynamics? I also do not like the in your face approach. Many of the older jazz, rock and country albums would not be released today. They were too quiet!

How loud is loud enough?
Great question. For me, it's about getting the song in question to a respectable level so that when it's played in a set with other professionally recorded songs from commercially released CD projects, it is as loud as they are. Not above, and not below, by more than a dB.
The goal is to not have the listener have to reach for the volume knob when your song comes on in the lineup.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
