Tech Notes Notes:

Concert began with a recording of "March from a Clockwork Orange" (Ninth Symphony, Fourth Movement) [Abridg - Walter Carlos] and, as a protected work, was not included in the release. Also included are Toast/Jam printouts for the CD (so you can use the "Audio starts in Pause" timings to have a track end when the music stops and the subsequent track start when the music begins). Recorded on a Sony TC-110A, using the built-in microphone (see http://www.sciencetech.technomuses.ca/english/collection/cassette_rec.cfm). Original cassettes were transferred to a Mac DAW using a Denon DR-M10HR. The analog signal was first run through: a) a SAE 2800 parametric equalizer to bump the highs slightly and to remove "room boom" at around 80 MHz; & b) a Phase Linear Autocorrelator to remove hiss & expand the signal (the TC-110A did not have controls for recording; the recorder, designed for dictation, compressed the signal and recorded at a fixed level). Transferred to the Mac using a MOTU 896. Bias Deck used to splice tape flips & even out volume levels. Bias Peak used to transfer SDII files to WAV files for shn compression. xACT used to fix SBEs & encode to SHNs. This recording is the one of literally dozens of concerts recorded by Joe Maloney in the late '60s - late '70s to be released to the live recording community. The bulk of the concerts recorded were in the Boston area, with some in Maine venues.
