I love Clockwork Angels. Just love it. The one thing that kind of irks me is the obvious edits that can be heard in most of the songs. To my ears, they are not subtle at all. This was pretty obvious in S&A as well. The one glaring mistake being the beginning of the second verse in "We hold on". Just laughably bad. Anyone else bugged by this?

Have you ever comped a dozen and a half playlists of 47 mic tracks into one continuous take? didn't think so.

No, I haven't. Should I be more understanding because there are a lot of tracks to comp? No.

I agree....what is the fuss here?

What are you playing this on?

A drummer since 1982, I do not here any clipping/outta synch whatsoever...

Hmm

Could you give some specific examples? I'd be interested in checking them out. I didn't notice anything glaring, but I haven't done any really close listening either.

I can see that.

 

You remind me of...me, last summer.

 

You're not bad. But remember, brevity is the soul of wit.

Can you give an example of what you are talking about on CA, instead of S&A? wacko.gif

The Rush defense team is out in full force already. Give the guy a chance to explain exactly what he means. Jesus, Rush has the worst fans ever.

I know right? OP says there's a bunch of mistakes on CA, then provides one example from another album. Ridiculous. wacko.gif

On We Hold On, the beginning of the second verse is a syncopated drum fill. Count it out, it's perfectly timed.

Yepp, and one of my favorite little bits on that record.

 

But after that fill, the first measure of the verse is just a tiiiiiiiiiny bit lagged. At least the kick drum on beat 1 is. Whether Neil intended that or not, I don't know.

Oh Fark me, I am so sick and tired of people talking out of their ass.

 

These are professional musicians, producers, and engineers. RUSH had already made 10 albums before most people on this board we're born or old enough to buy a record.

 

The only "edits" you hear are in your head.

 

Do you think for one second an amateurish mistake like you describe would go unnoticed by a band who has made 20 studio albums.

 

It's a moronic notion, IMO.
