| Tech Notes | Disc 1 notes *Loser: tape cut at 2:36. About 15 seconds missing. Jack Straw: tape warble at 1:00. quick skip at 3:50 sounds like pause button was bumped. Box Of Rain: quick skip at 0:30 sounds like pause button was bumped. At 3:35 there is a pitch shift where the speed picks up. *Eyes: tape cut (flip?) patched at 11:28. notes: While this entire AUD has circulated for some time (AudMC>R>D>CD; AudMC>R>R>D>CD; AudMC>?>R>D>CD), recently a reel copy of the master belonging to Bill Degen turned up that provided a significant upgrade for most of set one, as well as giving us a few more passages of in between song audience chatter. Bill had recorded the reel himself off of Andy Nourse's master cassettes in the mid 1970's. While doing the set one upgrade, a DAT (AudMC>R>DAT@48k) was also found that proved to be nearly on par with the new reel, and provided the rest of the show up to WRSP. This DAT copy was also a significant upgrade to circulating versions. The final jam of the show was taken from the best possible currently circulating copy, and was given slight EQ enhancement to improve fidelity. Below is a breakdown of what came from where: Set One: all of this less Cumberland, Wave That Flag, Around And Around, and You Ain't Woman Enough come from the Bill Degen reel. Transferred in July/August 2001 by Noah Weiner (noahbw@attbi.com). Reel playback on Teac A-2300SX > Fostex D5 DAT (A>D only) > Turtle Beach Montego II Digital I/O > Sound Forge (wav edits and track IDs) > SHNTOOL (SBE fix) > MKW (shn) Set Two-a: through the end of discs two (including those four songs not on the reel) comes from the DAT upgrade (MC>R>DAT@48k>WAV> resample to 44.1k in Soundforge>SHN). All of set two is mono (this is true of all on all copies gathered for this project). Set Two-end: from WRSP through the end of the show comes from the circulating MC>R>D>CD version. This was given slight boost in the high and low end via Soundforge Parametric EQ to improve compatibility with the rest of the show. All tracks were checked and verified with SHNTOOL. |
