Beginning and ending tracks are faded to fit this configuration, but shouldn't interfere with any different approach as they effect only audience sound. I use 74 minute gold archival discs for shows of this quality anyway, which make for a better spread, less blank disc space on 2 and 3: [Vol. 1] 01V1 - Opening/Yours Is No Disgrace; 02V1 - Rhythm Of Love; 03V1 - Shock To The System; 04V1 - Heart Of The Sunrise; 05V1 - Howe Solo [MoodClap #10,921 give or take]; 06V1 - Make It Easy/Owner Of A Lonely Heart; 07V1 - And You And I; 08V1 - Percussion Duet; 09V1 - Hold On [Vol. 2] 01V2 - I've Seen All Good People; 02V2 - Kaye Solo/Changes; 03V2 - Rabin Solo; 04V2 - Long Distance Runaround/Squire solo; 05V2 - Lift Me Up; 06V2 - Wakeman Solo; [Vol. 3] 01V3 - Awaken; 02V3 - Roundabout WEAKNESSES: Just a tiny scattering of dropouts, inevitable in any AR. Most seem likely related to the occasional needed mic concealment operation. In some segments left channel amplitude is slightly lower than right, probably due to mic position changes and not serious enough to need correction. Only one segment was lost - some tens of seconds of the beginning of the percussion duet and it's unfortunate, but it came after an intermission, even supertapers have to pee, and most of it's there. Other than the above, I can't think of any worth mentioning. |
