Re: Cyballance..what is it?

Sibilance


Noise associated with vocal sounding of words with characteristically "s", "sch", or "ch" syllables.

I don't think Rog was tlaking down to anyone, rather he was defending his (their?) music from criticism.

Re: Cyballance..what is it?

It just means that the pressing wasn't exact and the sound would have been 'coloured' because of this. Like if the sound was meant to be "ssssssss", the poor pressing might make it sound like "shhhhhhh".

Dirty, as opposed to clean.

Is this making sense to you?

Cheers,

Mark

Re: Cyballance..what is it?

I love that part of the video, it's so funny. "If you can still hear sibilance on the second string of pressings you've got an extremely overactive imagination, because there isn't any." Boy oh boy, where does he come up with this stuff?

Re: Cyballance..what is it?

The chick screaming is a very beautiful chick, she's very tall and thin and dresses in black, and she sits and drinks, and smokes cigarettes, and her name is Roger Waters.

Fantastic.

Cheers (wherever you may be),

Mark
