I'm not sure if anyone would prefer this over the original version, but in my case, the original causes me pain in my ears and tends to get complaints from others when I play it out loud. I decided to make this edit, which I created in Audacity by using the parametric EQ on the spectrogram of the track, in order to reduce the volume of the problematic frequencies. I then used Plane9 and its Xor visualizer to create something interesting to go with the audio. It looks really cool near the end, in my opinion.

This simple edit did not eliminate the problem frequencies completely, and there are parts of the song during which the squeal plays at a slightly lower pitch and sounds much louder, but the majority of the song is 'improved'. If you have any ideas regarding how to improve this edit even more, please pass them on to me in the comments. Please don't tell me I've ruined the original; I'm completely aware of that, but Leterel approaches Ventolin in its effect on my ears, and this fixes that problem.

Thanks for watching, and have a fantastic day!
