| Notes | Steely Dan 1974-03-20 The Record Plant Los Angeles, CA KMET - Live 35th Anniversary Edition by TheTooleMan! Pre FM Master Reel (Scotch 176 1/4" 1/2 track @7.5 ips, no NR) > Ampex ATR-100 Tape Machine > Apogee A/D converters @24/96 > Adobe Audition (downsampling, tracking) > WAV > FLAC (refer to http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=43240 Thanks to Weedwacker and especially to Javit for providing the source recordings Remaster (by TheTooleMan): Sound Forge (eq, tiny amount of pitch correction, re-tracking) -> FLAC As with many tapes of this vintage, I thought a little more bass was needed. While I was at it, I ironed out a couple of tape wrinkles, too. I debated whether to put this on TTD, but finally said, "What the hell!" At the end of the broadcast, the announcer thanks "the Sansui quad equipment people" for doing "a great job tonight." I took that as a hint that there may be some SQ encoded material in the tape, so I tried running the tracks through my home-brew SQ decoder. Nothing much popped out, quad-wise. That's not too surprising, since SQ only provides 3 db separation between the front and rear channels. Besides that, this is a pre-FM recording, so the quad encoding may not be present in the audio chain. I may get adventurous and try some more tricks with this one. If anything good comes out of it, I will seed it here. If anyone has more info on the quad nature of this recording, or KMET in 1974, please let me know.
