| Tech Notes | "(TomP) Remaster ------------------ MAGMA Radio Bremen Studio F 6 February 1974 ------------------ Radio Recording from very low generation cassette Best version of this recording I've heard so far. Source: Dime post by nadir_53 - thanks for this and encouragement to remaster and post !! http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=134197 (now dead) Changes made (Nero 7): ------------------------- Cross-mixed all tracks (84:16), big improvement in instrument dynamics & stereo image Reduced left channel by 5-10% to centre stereo balance Evened volume on all tracks Cut the glitch at the beginning of each track Cross-faded all tracks by 1sec to smooth track transitions Fixed 200+ small digi-glitches, similar to vinyl clicks, mainly in d2tr01 & 02 Note: the hiss in the background appears to be from an amp, so I didn't do anything to correct it Quality: Got to be an EX, definitely CD quality --------------------------------------------------- Dedicated to 'hanwaker' who pleaded for me NOT to post this, LOL...!! This is a quite superb recording by Radio Bremen,although it sounds like there has been some 'stereo broadening' at some stage (as often appears the case) which blurs the dynamic impact of the drums and bass, so I fixed that plus I did some other editing (details above). The major plus for me is just how fantastically Vander's drum kit is recorded, even to the extent that you can hear (on really good headphones anyway) the different places hit by the two drumsticks on the same cowbell (on Ptah) - possibly the best percussion recording I've heard anywhere !! For the first time ever I "get" what Vander is doing on Ptah. The whole recording is also truly great so please.... Grab and Enjoy !! CD1 12.00 Sowiloi 06.31 KMX EXII Opus 3 34.00 MDK CD2 19.54 Ptah/Korusz 25.53 Theusz Hamtaahk Christian Vander Klaus Blasquiz Jannick Top Claude Olmos Géerard Bikialo Michel Grailler Note: d1tr02 seems to be almost identical to the end of d1tr01, but seems better quality." |
