FRANK SINATRA NEW MONO TO STEREO MIXES
$ 13.95 $ 14.95
This CD from the EU debuts 26 of Frank Sinatra's classic (as well as lesser known) recordings for the first time in STEREO. They were recorded in the days of (1-channel) monaural, which is not a natural sound. Although he re-did some of them over the years, the original performances stand alone for their quality.
But now, new AI technology called DES ("Digitally Extracted Stereo"), enables engineers to zero in on the frequency of various instruments and vocals, separate them into individual tracks, and then mix them into stereo like a modern, multi-track recording.
The results are STUNNING. You won't believe your ears!
This exciting DES breakthrough is a laborious and time-consuming process—akin perhaps to restoring an old master canvas that has been painted over. You hear much more detail in the original music and Sinatra really comes alive!
His voice has also been remastered to restore its rich patina and bring him "forward" in the mixes. It is incredible how good he now sounds!
The EU label that released this CD has also done new mono-to-stereo mixes on Elvis (about 100 songs!), Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Peggy Lee, Johnny Mathis, Connie Francis, Tony Bennett, Patsy Cline and more! (Click the artist's name to see more info).

WHY IS IT SUCH A BIG DEAL THESE SONGS ARE TURNED FROM MONO INTO STEREO? This from Google: "Stereo sound is generally considered to be better than mono sound because it can create a more immersive and realistic listening experience. Stereo sound uses two audio channels, left and right, to separate the different elements of a song and give them more space to shine. This creates a sense of space and directionality, allowing the listener to perceive where instruments or voices are located within the audio mix. Stereo sound can also reproduce a wider range of frequencies and provide a higher level of detail than mono sound." So THAT's why it's a big deal when Frank's tracks get the new treatment. You think you've heard the songs before but you really haven't ever heard them THIS way...because he recorded them in the days of mono. But now they are stereo. Every music fan should be thrilled!
THE BIG LABELS HAVE BEEN SLOW TO EMBRACE THIS FABULOUS NEW AUDIO TECHNOLOGY so this is a rare opportunity for you to be among the first to listen to classic Frank Sinatra tracks for the first time in STEREO. This is a great collectible CD!
