The song in question

Strange, it sounded fine on my PC but I've uploaded it to my iPod and it sounds like it's clipping horribly. Just wanted to find out if others are hearing this too...whatever you're listening on.

BTW, this isn't some lame excuse to get people to listen and review. I just want to get views on the clipping/distortion thing.

- Thanks

it don't clip here (using headphones), so probably something flipped some 0 and 1's during uploading. Or it's the rattlesnake. Only at 1.54 there is a minimal clipping part.

Nice track btw!!!

Regards, Slug

Okay, cheers Slug.
Perhaps it's an iTunes/Pod thing.

Oh, by the way...Is this clipping?:

Death Magnetic

It sounded fine on my NEVE console, but my mastering engineer told me he heard some clicks...

Cheers

Can't listen at the mo, but yes, it could be your iTunes has one of the eq settings on - rock, pop, jazz whatever - check your prefs and turn it off. Just a thought...

no clipping, but a powerful song (i'd say, one of your best) with great atmo and suspense ... and as usual an oddyboddy good mix!

thanks for the further confirmations fellas.
it would appear I don't have to re-mix it after all.

Great stuff, oddbod.

I like the plectrum-y guitar sound you're getting on that plunky verse riff (e.g. 0:22). What guitar are you using here?

That'll be my beloved (1965) Framus Television.
It's the coolest thing I've ever owned.
Allow me to pimp it...again

Hmm, never seen a Framus out here. She's a looker, though.
