I also don't know how many of these links actually work. If they don't tell me and I'll try and source them out.

Radiohead - Nude (Spor remix)

that was not what i was expecting at all, i was listening out for a dnb drop but it never came, to me it didn't really seem all that different to the original in my ears...

Those free tracks on Digital Soundboy are wicked.

I also liked Fresh's free tunes. They actually sounded like proper, interesting songs, as opposed to standard formulaic drum and bass pap.

Just watch the stuff you do download and play...

With vinyl its been professionally mixed down, its been professionally mastered and its a finished product.

A lot of MP3s arent these days, and the audio quality is getting sacrificed.

Just give it a quick little master yourself. Can make all the difference.

With Mastering software. Not as good because you don't have the original tracks, but simply jumping on and adding a multiband compressor and other stuff can make a huge difference to the sound of a track. Even a 320 mp3.

hum... dont know about adding compression to already compressed drums really helps, it just makes it sound weaker imo.

If you are average dj joe blogs as well, you wont have all that kit and you wont know how to use it...

Why you should just buy vinyl in the first place... because it sounds mastered, because it is.

Once something has been compressed that information is lost and no amount of mastering will get it back. You can make the best of what is left, by making it louder and adding EQ it to make it sound nicer but I am not sure it would be worth the effort...

I'm completely with you on the vinyl thing, but seeing as this thread is more about free 320's which were in some cases previously unreleased I thought I'd try and relate it to this. Also Multi-Band Compression is different to normal compression as it compresses over multiple EQ Bands (surprise surprise

) But yes you are right your average Joe probably wouldn't know that.

Yeah I agree. I think the best way (and the way I and most do it with poorly mastered tunes - including vinyl releases) is to just use the EQ's on the mixer to bring the levels to where they sound right.

Dude, transcoding is the worst thing you can do to an already shitty mp3....Adding a compressor and EQ and re-encoding (transcoding) to 320 will sound shithouse

haha shithouse is a winner

IMO mixing crappy mp3s is some of the best practice you can get as you learn to use your ears more... if you're just using modern 12s it's almost too easy to mix with all your knobs at 12 o'clock... not necessarily a bad thing but good to step outside the comfort zone even if just for the experience

someone will see to it that the questions remain questions, getting lost amongst the crowd and the noise...
