What you all keep forgetting is that engineers like Suha Gur usually work with reissue producers. The producer is the one that calls the shots. So, if there is something you don't like about a Suha-mastered CD, look at the producer, not him. You guys are simply used to Hoffman, and the concept of the mastering guy calling all the shots. It's not like that for most of the industry. Even Hoffman sometimes gets certain directives from the artist. No mastering person is free to run nilly-willy on any project. Whatever they do is still subject to approval.

Yeah, even StEve can't run nilly-willy on the cha cha cha CD.

If there is one thing that place taught me it's that mastering engineers are treated worse than the record company janitor. They have zero power. StEve likes to pretend he's some kind of maverick.

Glad to see rtnaG is still alive and kicking. He’s been off my radar for awhile so I didn’t know if he retyred from the Piggly Wiggly and moved on or what.

What with all the present tenses? Didn’t Gnrat get the memo that Hoffman’s only remaining gig went kaput more than two years ago? Also, I think that any directives that might have come down were for the insistence of guards to make sure Hoffman didn’t go running off nilly-willy with the master tapes.

Well, STEVE is one of them there millionaires, so perhaps because he's so digustingly rich, musicians and record labels actually revere him after all!

Does GtRnA run nilly-willy at the Piggly Wiggly?

Does GtRnA run nilly-willy at the Piggly Wiggly? Makes sense, because Hoffman is the Milli Vanilli of mastering. Kevin Gray did all the work, STeVe just stood in front and took the credit.
