The master tapes had to be flipped every 22-23 minutes (and that's not as easy as flipping a cassette over).
Because of the reel to reel flips some songs are incomplete.
Reduced bandwidth from DAT tape at Long Play speed (32KHz sample rate has a max. freq of 16KHz).
Sorry but I was a broke and some of these reels were starting to squeal and needed to be transferred before they went bad.
Used the Phase Linear auto-correlator during the Reel to DAT transfer (multi-band noise reduction and dynamic expander).
Some small dropouts and loud claps were repaired or removed with Audacity wave editor.
No equalization or digital noise reduction has been used on this recording.
