| Post subject: | "Torture" Songs For Audio Processors To Test Presets |
Hey everyone! I was thinking we should have an on-going thread with links to the songs that are the most difficult for audio processors to handle. So when you are making a preset and you think it sounds good, you can run the songs in this thread through the preset and see how it holds up to the test! So I'll start it off with a short list. BASS Mya - "Movin' On" The Fugees - "Killing Me Softly" Belocca & Soneec - "Chupakamra" (Thanks to Bojcha) VOLUME Bjork - "It's Oh So Quiet" So what songs do you use as your reference torture test? |

Maybe this topic should be moved to the "Getting the best sound with Stereo Tool" forum? |
