This second release of music sung by some of the finest female voices of the fifties including Julie London, Peggy Lee, Nancy Wildon and Ella Fitzgerald.
If you love the music of the 50's, this album is for you. As per usual, they have gone back to original recordings and woven their magic at the mixing desk (re-engineered by STS through their unique MW process) to produce some magical musical moments - 18 of them on this CD for audiophiles!
Diamond Voices Of The Fifties - All these nice recordings are taken from analogue original master tapes and mastered in the MW Coding Process.
Who said CD was dead!? Not us, nor STS Digital. The best-sounding CD's ever? Hi-Fi News Album Choice, sound quality 95%, the best ever rating in Hi-Fi News magazine for a CD we believe.
In STS Digital CD Recording, you will find:
1. The warm sound, that acoustic instruments possess on their own, but is often not captured by sound technicians.
2. Acoustic placing and recognition of the musicians in the recording space.
3. Phase purity of a recording, both the electric phase (good cable/fibre connections etc), and the acoustic phase must be acquired through proper placing of the microphones.
4. Symmetry in the recording; this means always placing the microphones in such a way that on both the left and the right side there’s an equal division of signal, and not placing mono support microphones on the extreme left and right.
5. Transparency and clarity in a recording. This does not mean an overly sharp recording, but one of softness in tone and clarity, in which especially the 3-dimensional recording space is being displayed.

Beautiful Sound Recordings on CD - This CD shows just how wide a range of dynamics the CD medium can achieve and how this offers a sense of scale and reality to the music. This is the most 'dynamic' series of CDs STS Digital has ever produced, with the help of the unique STS Digital MW Coding Process.
The quality of the recordings is stunning, and details and micro-details are so clear, that you will be transported to the great outdoors, but without the distant roar of motor vehicles or the hum of planes.
