Drift Encodings

[taotsu]

Just noticed something running Air Towel and Pearls Girl through MusicBrainz Picard:

- Air towel was encoded in Logic Pro X 10.4.4
- Pearls Girl was encoded in iTunes 12.9.4.94
both of which are the most recent versions.

So, I took a look at the other releases, as far as we got MP3's to download:

- Small Conker And A Twix: iTunes 12.9.2.5

Drift 2:
- Apple Shine: iTunes 12.9.2.5
- Molehill: iTunes 12.9.2.5
- Threats of Rain: iTunes 12.9.2.5
- Brussels: iTunes 12.9.2.5
- Soniamode: iTunes 12.9.2.5
- Appleshine Continuum (I do not recall if this was a download, but I have it as iTunes encode, so I assume it was): iTunes 12.9.2.5

- Are you rockstar?: Logic Pro X 10.4.4
- Twist: Logic Pro X 10.4.2

Drift 3:
- Dune: no download
- Custard Speedtalk: Logic Pro X 10.4.4
- This Must Be Drum Street (Film Edit): Logic Pro X 10.4.4
- Pinetum: iTunes 12.9.4.94
- Poet Cat: iTunes 12.9.4.94

- Air towel was encoded in Logic Pro X 10.4.4
- Pearls Girl was encoded in iTunes 12.9.4.94

Drift 4:
- Listen To Their No: no download
- Schiphol Test: iTunes 12.9.4.94

I will continue to update this list.

I wonder how they use Logic? For mastering? Or for actual production? I always thought Rick would rather use pro tools, but I have no clue? Does anyone one have any recent interviews about that?
