GoodMusician 56 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 lol...I do. I think it's a recording thing. Like, you go from actual silence, to when the track starts. I think it might have to do with how it was recorded... because it was mostly percussion in the begining of one track...I always thought it was a recording thing atleast. Like a high frequency hiss of just... room sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,225 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 I have yet to get the original disc (first it wasn't out here, then I had no money), but I always assumed the extreme hiss some tracks on my CDR have at the beginning were an error on just my copy.If this is on the originals as well, it's bad enough I'd consider them faulty. My disc has more hiss than a cassette tape.Marian - wondering now if Murphy is having a relapse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pi 0 Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 Ok, check out track 6, this seems to be the one where it is easiest to find. Before the harp comes in there is an extremely high pitch, even before there is any music. Its very noticeable, if you do not hear it try listening in your car or on a different stereo. It sounds exactly like the TV frequency, in fact I wonder if thats what it is, coming in through JW's talkback mic. Do you hear it now?? Its only in the beginning of tracks for like 4 or 5 seconds at most, you can almost hear it being faded out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,355 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Isn't there a high pitch in The River too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 I've listened to Geisha about a couple of dozen times and I've never heard a high pitched hiss.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinaismine 64 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 I've heard it, it sounds like the high pitched whine a TV makes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovehotsax 0 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 ahh yes, I hear it now that I was listening for it. How odd, I've never notiched it before but you're right, it's very high pitched and quite annoying if you know it's there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurgaFlippinMan 7 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Never heard it before, still can't hear it now I'm looking for it. Yes I do have the original CD... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodMusician 56 Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 it's only like... the first few seconds of a couple tracks... like "Going to School" Its not so much a hiss as the sound of the recording starting that has the "air" sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ymenard 54 Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Yes that is the sound of Shawn Murphy sucking the air out of everything with all his compression/muddy reverb ;-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 In a room with Shawn Murphy... everything gets cold and there's a strange fog. I get a horrible feeling, like I'd never be happy again. And then I hear it..."Stand aside, you silly man, let me mix the music so no-one can hear it, and add empty reverb! You needn't die, just stand aside! AVADA KEDAVRA!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Malone 49 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 The high pitch is most likely flyback from a TV monitor.TV peak is common in many recordings and can be used to determine where a recording was made. The frequencies are 15,734 Hz for NTSC and 15,625 Hz for PAL.I remove it when mastering material that is affected. It hurts the ears otherwise.CV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodMusician 56 Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I know some devices remove such noise... the only time I remember hearing it is the begining of "Going to School" right before the drums start. If you play something else, and then play it... it is obvious...not to mention the pipa player is out of tune at times... especially in that track :-p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
