Maroon 5 - Overexposed (SPEC DTS 5.1 CD by DKA) (SBU)

This is a DTS 5.1 conversion created from a lossless FLAC source utiiizing the SPEC method (ArcTan mode) as found on www.surroundbyus.com.

Only playable on home theater equipment and PC software capable of decoding a DTS signal. Otherwise, you will hear static.

Notes and disclaimers:

It is not recommended that you downmix these tracks to stereo, transcode them in any way, or make any changes other to them than how they are presented here.

If you are not a fan of stereo-to-surround conversions, while I do recommend giving the SPEC mixes a chance, if it is not your intention to do so, please respect those who do get enjoyment out of these mixes and do not troll or flame on my, or anyone else's, posts.

This and the Ellie Goulding upmixes are inspired by a bit too much pop radio in my life recently due to my one year-old. I think both are great albums, though, and a great match for SPEC. Nothing wrong with well-crafted pop. The source here is the British Deluxe version, which adds some bonus tracks, as well as "Moves Like Jagger," which I just think is three minutes of radio brilliance. Sue me.

Some post-processing was done here with SoundForge in order to bring out a bit more warmth in the mix, as this source was definitely a trip to "loudness wars" hell.

Enjoy.
