    The sound mixing is not great, (speaking vs engine notes) I'm not able to hear the presenter some times.

      James Downes Exactly.

    • @Eyealt
      @Eyealt 8 років тому +32

      I look forward to these every year and could barely make it through this because the voices were almost inaudible. Nothing beats the sound of engine noise, but the point of this video is to hear the thoughts more so than the cars.

    • @djfrozone
      @djfrozone 8 років тому +7

      honestly i stopped after 7 minutes. I couldn't hear anything and they all sounded vaguely disappointed.

    Nobody does this sort of thing with so much love, attention to detail and devotion as the crew from Evo. Take a bow. Again. Brilliant.

      @willywillywillywillywilly 8 років тому +8

      Targa Florio A really stunning film. The shots in the intro could have been stretched more. They were really setting a mood and it was a bit rushed. And the engine noises overpowered narration often. And the suspense announcing the winner was way underplayed. Other than that, really exceptional.

      tommaso seneca That dose not make any sense. Jeremy clarkson says that about porsches witch has the engine in the back, similar to the beetle. But i say what jeremy says that you need to own an alfa to be a true petrolhead.

    • @KarmaticEvolution
      @KarmaticEvolution 8 років тому +13

      Aravind Babu I would say most people watching enthusiasts car videos do enjoy the sounds but we also want to hear their opinions since that is the point of the journalist reviewing them, otherwise we can watch a video just with the engine sounds.

    • @blitzboy227
      @blitzboy227 8 років тому

      Andrew Safabakhsh I was able to hear all the narrations without any problem, i dont know what problem you guys are facing.
      Im hearing through my JBL Flip 3 Bluetooth Speaker..

    • @KarmaticEvolution
      @KarmaticEvolution 8 років тому +4

      There are plenty of moments in the video where the exhaust overshadows the voice of the journalist, look at all the top comments remarking the same thing. You may not be experiencing the same with your setup as I was watching on my iPhone.

  • @gothops154
    @gothops154 8 років тому +2

    Idk how you can talk about hot hatches and fun to drive without having a Mini JCW in there. Massive disservice to a fantastic hot hatch with a huge following and culture of its own

      @willywillywillywillywilly 8 років тому +5

      Arthur Vico I agree that the narration was a bit low in the mix often. Exceptionally beautiful film and very high quality all around. That one criticism of the narration level, especially when engine noises were being played, is absolutely true.

    I love how the standard Alfa Romeo Giulia QF beat the ultimate M4 GTS. That is a truly special car.
    I can't wait until they release a GTA version of it.

  • @MonoLucas123
    @MonoLucas123 8 років тому +125

    Great video, minor complaint... Add a bit more compression or multiband compression on the voice overs, because when the cars drive by their sound drowns out the voice overs pretty often... or compress the peak of the car noise or time it a bit different. Oh EVO can hire me, i'm a experience recording/sound engineer and available:)

    • @ceounicom
      @ceounicom 8 років тому +3

      ""Add a bit more compression or multiband compression on the voice overs,
      because when the cars drive by their sound drowns out the voice overs
      pretty often""
      This.
      It was noticeable very very quickly, and then it stayed bad. Whomever mastered the audio on this thing dropped the ball. This is basic stuff when you're mixing loud engines periodically with a steady-volume source like a voice; have some kind of gated compression at the ready.

    • @fedebenavides
      @fedebenavides 8 років тому +7

      Couldn't agree more. I thought it was my speakers so switched to my headphones then switched to even better headphones. Truly a shame that commentaries were lost to the car drive-by noices.

      Totally agree. They have these guys dictating their thoughts like a surgeon sitting in his office with a voice recorder at the end of the day. Difference is a surgeon isn't dubbing a frickin' V10 roar or a 500hp flat six wail over his impressions. Tighten your shit up EVO

  • @nikb6528
    @nikb6528 8 років тому +9

    Lovely piece, as per usual with you guys BUT here's a minor complaint to possibly take into consideration next year around: try to lower the volume of the fly-by shots when there's a commentary in the back. A lot of words pass unheard due to fly-by noises. I don't know, I might be the only one having a problem with that. It especially exacerbates the experience for us non-native English speakers, I posit.

  • @okumonux

    1) Glad to see someone finally addressing how bad the suspension on the M2 is.
    2) The Vantage is a 10 year-old car. It's stupid to include it this group, the logic choice would've obviously been the DB11.
    3) Giving the title to a limited edition car that's a good 50k too expensive is pointless.
    4) Tell David Vivian to spit before he's recorded, or change the mic setup or sensitivity or something... it's disgusting to hear the saliva in his mouth as he speaks.

      It's obvious he meant that it's 50k too expensive for what it is, man. Which it is. This is an overpriced GT3 RS without the GT3 RS track capabilities or visual drama, and one no one can even buy - when it was launched it had already been sold out. What's the point?

    The audio is really bad. Sometimes I can't hear what the person is trying to say because of the exhaust notes. Bad job with the audio guys.

      Indeed ! Such a video quality for such a horrible audio quality !!! Between the too loud exhaust and road sounds, the guys whispering, the guy eating and spitting and licking is microphone, it a very painful moment to spend (before you actually figure out that you didn't had to watch to the winner because it's the same for 10 years)

    +EVO The voice audio is barely discernible when combined with the car audio. An audio technician should have tweaked the soundscape to bring the voice audio more forwards while balancing the car sounds into the rear/sides of the soundscape.

      @stevenfarrington2361 8 років тому

      Golf 7 is the biggest load oh s**t going and shouldn't be anywhere near this test. A dangerously unresponsive DSG gearbox, massive turbo lag, driving nannies that can't be switched off, emission defeat devices, questionable ergonomics and now I hear sister company Skoda is supplying a version with a suicidal cruise control system. EVO should be investigating this stuff not acting as VW's english marketing arm.

    Love the way Evo just make a video about cars and feel no pressure to include 'funny' banter between the lads (old Top Gear style, very tired of seeing so many poor imitations of Jeremy et al), and likewise no 'hilarious' tasks for practicality such as drive thrus. Just pure automotive driving heaven...
    But if I did have one comment it did feel a little bit like a 30 min intro to something. Maybe next time we could be in on the discussions or maybe put a bit of road trip theme to things just to show us some living with the cars?

      ambrosius1111 it's a seriously amazing car you wouldn't understand that unless you sat in one and drove it
      Everything from the fun factor to the Audi-class interior
      Not to mention that this specific golf is so fast for what it's to the point that it has got the same time as the murcielago lp-640 around the ring

      No-one in the right mind given the choice would chose to drive that Golf over the R8. Should not have placed 2nd.

      |〉 TARIQ k. 〈| I dont have to respect anything about this review in all honesty. They are picking car of the year with zero track footage. That alone should make this video irrelevant. They said they dislike the m2 because of how it rides on bumpy roads.. lmfao the fuck? It's a sports car... with stiff suspension not a fucking corrolla.
      whats more is its not even the stiffest riding car here.. even the m4 gts rides stiffer but they made no mention of that. Then they complained about its exhaust note like the gti is any fucking better.
      They complained the aston martin isnt that quick.. well the gti is slow as fuck compared to a huracan but they didnt complain about the gti's speed.
      They complained the nsx's interior is too basic and plastic but they picked a fucking gti as number two when literally NINE CARS ON THAT LIST have a nicer interior.
      Why is the hurican on this list anyway.. its not new this year.. where is the mustang gt350??
      Obviously they have a hard on for the gti.. no sane human being would choose that over a rucking r8.
      So many things wrong with this review i dont even know where to start.
      The 911r won, im perfectly fine with that. It deserves it but what was their reasoning really? Just bland and empty answers and pretty words with no real substance.
      You dont decide car of the year by driving a few cars through a random closed back roads and deciding based in which hurt your back the least. What a bunch of vaginas. Fuck this review and the shitty sound quality.
