Does anyone have Sonoton's Dramatic Workshop series (Needs to be Deleted)

The Audio in flat when it is louder, why do you keep on saying it is alright.

Because you are wrong. The audio you have received is identical to the audio I have downloaded from Cavendish. Bit perfect identical.

If you don't find it acceptable, you don't find Cavendish's offering acceptable. I did nothing to alter the audio and FLAC is lossless, so how can it happen even?

I'm sorry, It isn't your fault. I created an account with Cavendish Music, and the music was the same when I download one. Don't get music from Cavendish Music.

Why do you say don't get music from Cavendish? They have the same files other libraries do.

APM Music has the same compression.

APM Music has the same compression.

That's exactly correct, they are the same files on both APM and Cavendish. Kinda proves my point. I'm really not hearing this compression you're talking about, and I'm for sure not seeing it in these waveform screenshots.

You're welcome by the way

In case you didn't google that phrase earlier, what you're doing right now is what Looking A Gift Horse In The Mouth means.

Sit down @Christopher, and enjoy the music that is freely offered to you

I'd like to share my own perspective:

1. For the same track in a music library, downloading it in WAV format (or FLAC) from different websites yields distinct spectral waveforms.

For instance, with Sonoton—I have access to multiple sites offering Sonoton album downloads—but the spectral waveforms of the same track downloaded from these sites are not identical.

2. CD audio quality is superior. When I encounter albums I truly love, I go out of my way to purchase their CDs or ask friends for copies. The sound quality of CDs genuinely differs from digital versions found online—their spectral waveforms are superior, and at equal volume levels, some tracks sound louder. I possess professional music playback equipment and can vouch for this.

I’ve learned what FLAC actually is, and it's is now alright if someone gave me FLAC. What I realised is that it’s not FLAC that compresses the audio, it’s the production music libraries like APM Music, Cavendish Music, Extreme Music, and Warner Chappell Music that slightly compress the music, so the music's volume doesn't overpass the top. I'm sorry.

It's okay. I'm sure BWP forgave you for what you've done earlier. But from now on, all you need to do is to listen, not sprayin' it. Also, my format preference are both MP3 and FLAC, though i WAV was also my preference.

By the way, in case no one noticed, SCD0437 DRAMATIC WORKSHOP 19 THE PROMO SOURCE has the 5.1 mix included. The stereo files are in the root folder as usual, but there is a subfolder that has a folder for each track and the stems of each channel inside the folder, so for example, track 1, Too Tough has 7 files. The main stereo track in the root folder and another folder nested that has 01_TOOTOUGH_MAIN_C.flac, 01_TOOTOUGH_MAIN_L.flac, 01_TOOTOUGH_MAIN_R, etc. Muxing these together in a program will get you full 5.1 sound.
