Source Dats, Cool Edit cleanup, source patches - Matt Vernon
Dat > Shn Transfer- Dale Shepherd
Tech Notes Notes:
1. these shn's are from the same source as Noah Weiner, but had an unknown number of intermediate cassette generations. Noah's shn's have less hiss and better fidelity but suffer from tape decay. The tape decay manifests as many instances of brief partial loss of high frequencies which sound like "tape warble". The version I am seeding here, having been transfered earlier to DAT via an unknown number of cassette generations did not suffer from the tape decay. When listening on headphones, I find that my ears can tune out the tape hiss (no more than typical by the way for 76 aud tapes) and I find it less distracting than the more sudden and variable effects of the tape decay in Noah's source.
2. this source required some patches from Noah's. Apparently, in an attempt to fit the show on cassettes, the between song banter was removed, with about 1/2 the songs missing a few opening notes as well, the channels were flipped compared to Noah's source, and there were a few cases where the cassette flips lost music that was present in Noah's source. I also adjusted the track times to be close to Noah's to correct for the effects of different cassette speeds. All this being said this show has some unique playing in my experience, and is one of my favorite 76 aud tapes, and I can whole heartedly recommend it.
