Default Re: Sound of DAWS

You have isolate and account for EVERY variable before you can attribute a difference to any one thing. This is A/B'ing 101.

So, levels need to be matched to 1/10 of a dB (humans will always pick louder as "better"), Pan law needs to be the same, on and on and on.

You can't simply mix a song in one DAW and then mix the same files is another, have it sound better, and then attribute that difference to the DAW. It doesn't work that way. Many people have driven themselves crazy "chasing" a sound this way.
