On the back of the lid, there's a certificate with a signature of JMJ and a number.Elf wrote:I got the box set two days ago. Where can I see the number?
Just to make sure - you are talking about the back of the lid of the first box, shipped last year? Please don't tell me, you received the content of the second part in an extra box with lid...Dr_Jones wrote:

No one did, we all just received the two vinyl's, posters/fingerprints, CD and USB packed together. You're apparently supposed to insert in all into the box you received last year. Despite showing a photo that we'd apparently receive a second box, this is seemingly not the case.Hans_Best wrote:Just to make sure - you are talking about the back of the lid of the first box, shipped last year?

No it works on pretty much all audio files. But the Dynamic Range shows how much space there is between the highest highs and the lowest lows in terms of volume (and the average of course). The more space there is, the better. Although the range of course largely also depends on what the genre is. Trance for example usually has an lower average because that's simply how the music works. This YouTube Video, while not going into the technical details shows very clearly what it is and how it effects music.Hans_Best wrote:Something different: What is so important / interesting on the DR values. I'm not very familiar with those kind of things, but understood it is 'dynamic range'. But what does it actually tell someone / whats the benefit? Does it work for wav files only?
It seems you're supposed to insert it into the boxset of the first album. I've done so and it does fit rather snug in there.Elf wrote:No lid in my shipment. I only got the vinyls, the finger prints, the usb stick, CD, poster and liner notes. They were not inside a box.
Are you talking about the lid of vol 1, which came in a box, and where I'm obviously supposed to put the contents of vol 2?
Thank you for the video and explanation - that was really helpfulshadow wrote:No it works on pretty much all audio files.

It's not supposed to be a box on its own. What's in the Part 2 shipment is supposed to be placed in the Part 1 box. There was an extra CD slot for the Pt. 2 CD, a slot for the Pt. 2 thumb drive.Finaero wrote:Quite a lackluster "Collector's Box" compared to the E1 one (which IMO was more or less worth the price). Most of the track stories are from E1, IIRC the remixes were horrible (aside from Rising Star(dust)) and I'm not really one of those people who dig "Electronic Press Kits". Guess I got lucky when I cancelled my E2 preorder and just bought the CD instead...
Quite the shame.
Now where's that Paris La Defense inedité BluRay?
