Re: [microsound] Level Compression Recovery

[Renato Fabbri <renatoftato@xxxxxxxxx>]

thanks for the feedback. well, about  the mono to estereo conversion, I
agree, it is not worth the work and will sound fake.

but about the level variation recovery, my intent is to recover the
_original_ modulations. I belive that there is some chance in existing some
kind of "fingerprint" of the live performance. If there really is such a
fingerprint, would it be possible to recover it? I guess yes. What I cant
see is a way to do it that not using years of research and makind a
dedicated module...
