Caution: The following is me being annoyed and picky about the parade mixes even though I have no professional experience in the audio field or formal education in the matter. On that account I apologize for calling someone's work and effort bad but this project sounds very rushed and undemo'd to me.
I've listened to the boo to you parade and enchanted adventures parade.
This is the absolutely worst mixed set of audio I have ever heard Disney release. The audio levels are horrid. The mono music to stereo vocal jumping clashes like hell.
The music ducking for character vocals is rushed and sounds very jumpy, it's mostly an issue for Mickey/Minnie and Clara Cluck jumping into the track. It makes the transition to pirates sound bad because they drop the volume for mickey and jump it up just to fade down into pirates. Don't like it =). And they glitched up the loop at the beginning of the haunted mansion unit so there's a quick audio pop between loops just like in the rehearsal cd. yay. nice they included the ending, but the skip to it was kind of dumb, they should've just given us a loop of the underliner. and they missed the "it's not so scary" lines
Enchanted Adventures parade... ooooh dear lord. There was a very good reason on my own mix of the parade I didn't jump straight into "whistle while you work", and they just demonstrated it heh. (And oddly when I sync'ed up the tracks like it is on the cd I hadn't even heard the real parade yet and they ended up moving the intro back a few bars, so this cd isn't synced up authentically either but that's not really a concern of theirs
)
And the transitions between floats.. god =P They couldn't fade out snow white in time from going "whis..." Then going out of the next float they completely cut out the float too early and pump the introduction music again of all things?!??? So then it's pirates.. they didn't put the underliner in during "enchanted world's of grand adventures can come true".. understandable but still the pirates' line is supposed to play off of it.
And then they jump to the ending without doing the last music loop for the castle.
What the heck was that?!?
Blech
