Sorry, just making light of the situation that's been beat in the ground.  For all I know you could very well be correct.

It's hard to be unpredictable and funny at the same time. Something I probably have no business trying...

no need to apologize, I took it with full humor!
for my 2 cents, micro dynamics is the dynamic control good musicians use on each note, attack decay sustain release ... when "smashed" these subtle nuances are lost.

Here's how you handle "micro dynamics"

Very clever Chuck!

I would suggest that the term 'dynamics' be defined first and the scale (micro/macro) after.

I take 'dynamics' to refer to loudness. Since loudness is integrated over time (the limits of which are relatively well established), we might define micro dynamics as 'short-term integration of loudness' and macro dynamics as 'long-term integration of loudness', both of which are relatively well defined and commonly accepted psychoacoustic terms.

I'll be presenting a paper on the subject at the upcoming London AES convention in May.

Loudness is the wrong nomenclature ! it is just one side of dynamics. the other end is taciturnity/quiet/silence.

Dynamic range vs performance intensity, with respect to a reference dynamic level...
