Track 7 : the sound from the trumpet has a disturbance

Peter, is it so on your systen to ?

I have heard it before and i think a trumpet is one of the most difficult instrumet for a speaker to reproduce

Tore, I will listen to that later. If you don't see a response from me (say tomorrow) then just give me a reminder (in the forum). Usually I forget these things because other stuff receives priority throughout the day.

Peter

PS: Generally I have no problems with trumpets and these days I really like them. This with the notice that us "horn users" should have additional difficulties with trumpets. So maybe it is just your Avant Garde ?
But I will let you know.

OK, I listened ...

This album is a bit hot (through my system and ears). So for examples Ses are just a tad "over". But generally it makes sound the piano's nicely bright.

Then what you hear in track 07 is not a trumpet but some instrument with a reed (like clarinet, sax and many more). If you listen (not even so) closely to the very end you can clearly hear it. Btw compare with track 10 - that is a trumpet.

So what you hear in that distortion is over-emphasized air with waterdrops (from the mouth). The over-emphasized comes -as said - from the album being too hot (highs express too much). In track 08 you can hear how this hotness lifts the cymbals (they don't sound wrong from it, but are unusually "present").

Btw let's not be confused with track 04 and track 09 missing (no authorisation to play them - at least in Holland that is so). So mentioned track 10 is really "10 - Eric le Lann ...".
