Core Thesis

The comparison matters because structure detection owns section clarity. Dynamic range owns contrast and contour inside those sections. A song can be formally clear yet dynamically flat, or dynamically lively while structurally repetitive.

Where the signals diverge

Structure detection owns section clarity. Dynamic range owns contrast and contour inside those sections. A song can be formally clear yet dynamically flat, or dynamically lively while structurally repetitive.

What to read first

Read structure first when sections blur together. Read dynamic range first when the sections are obvious but none of them feel more consequential than the others.

How to read them together

Together they explain whether the listener is missing the map or missing the movement.
