Notes SV011 - "THREE YEARS IN NEW YORK CITY" **SECOND REMASTER**

Tech Notes Digital Matrix Mix: "Sneaky Bastard" (mixed with Pro Tools)
Digital Editing and Remastering: Allen Robertson

Recording Notes:
The editing performed was to minimize the spots of static, clicks/pops, and handclaps. Many of these were
during the first thirty seconds or so of "Animal" and during the first minute of "Immortality", but there
were many others here and there throughout the entire show (which supposedly happened during the mixing, or
were present on one of the sources prior to mixing). There is also a mild glitch @ 4:13 of "Release" which
was improved a little, but could not be fixed completely, and there is something unidentifiable @ 0:20 on
"Black" which was could not be completely corrected. Approximately 100-150 pops have been manually removed.
The end result is absolutely by no means perfect; there is an annoying whistler, the audience noise gets a little
overbearing sometimes, and there are still some occasional pops. It is possible that this show could be
made better in the future by doing a new mix of the two sources and isolating the pops beforehand (instead of
after mixing), but this source is probably the best until then, if that ever happens.

Special Note:
This is the second of two remastered versions that were done for this show. The sound on the first one was
accidentally made too tinny, so this new one has more bass brought back. Also even more pops were edited (primarily on the second disc). The beginning of "Alive" sounds a little strange through headphones due to a filter that was added there on the left channel to filter out a high-pitched feedback problem that was present for most of the song (thanks to roberob23 for identifying that). Also, you may want to pay close attention to the flac fingerprints to make sure that you have the correct better version.
