I later obtained AV's version which corrected a lot of issues with the original recording I had received, but still lacked in many areas sonically. (To my ears anyway.) In August of this year, I began the undertaking that would result in the remastered show that you're now listening to. After obtaining AV's permission to use his corrected and edited version of his recording, I began with EQing the show properly, which in turn increased the hiss level of an already hissy recording. This was corrected with both Waves X-Noise and Soundsoap Pro plug-ins. After adding compression and limiting (and a few other ingredients) a version was sent out for review to about six sets of ears, one set of which belonged to Tom Morgenstern of TM Productions. TM made a few suggestions to improve the source, with phase and speed correction being the key fixes needed. After TM completed his work using CEDAR, the files were sent back to me for final tweaks. Minor EQ adjustments were made to bring up the bass and mid sections, and reverb was added to remove some of the 'dry' sound. There are two edits, one on each disc, which were necessary for missing (non musical) material. The edits were completed via crossfades. Yes, there is still some hiss on this recording, as going further would have created sonic artifacts. Now this version is by no means the definitive version of this show, but I believe it's the best that we have for now. Many thanks go to AV for providing a well edited source, to the Meeks Genesis boys for the use of their ears, and especially to TM Productions for his work, suggestions and tech support. The final result could not have been achieved without TM's help. |
