The Turtles (featuring Flo & Eddie)   09/16/2011

Santa Cruz County Fair, Watsonville, CA
Source audience source (DD127)
Media FLAC
Notes Lossless audio transfer from Sony HDR-160X HD audience video master with internal microphones. Nice to be able to hear the Turtles doing a full set since most of their appearances in many years have been short set "oldies tour" venues. I should explain that the grassy area was very clear for all up to the last song or two, so I would have been too out in the open had attempted to record from there. On the last song many more people finally decided to go out there from the raised seats around the sides so I moved up too. Luckily the audio quality change is barely noticeable as I moved forward. It's all very decent sound quality with little close audience noise or other flaws. The audio holds up well without the video but the video DVD is also being posted separately.

Sony HDR-160X with internal mics > .mts HD files with Dolby Digital 384 K audio > AVCHD Converter > MPEG-4 files > Final Cut Pro > PCM 48K export > Pro Tools (minor "nip and tuck" edits and tracking) > AIFF > xACT (level 8 Flac files with sector boundaries verified).
Note: This show has been tracked to fit on two audio CD's but will play seamlessly through the disc change.
