Grateful Dead (Debut Master Transfer) Poplar Creek Music Theater Hoffman Estates IL USA * June 28th 1983 * 24b/192K ** POSTED BY ANALOG **
Archive first time May 16th 2020
A Covid-19 quarantine release! :)
Hot Off The Heads Production! :)
Mics: Mics: AKG 460B with the CK1 capsules
Recorder: 1981 TCD-5M Sony Cassette Pro Portable
Location: Sec 100 Row C Seat 107
Cassettes: Fuji Metal Bias C90: Dolby on but left off for this playback
Playback: Sony TCD-5M unit calibrated to this era (not same identical unit). Tape speed and head alignment
Chord Company Interconnect Cable (Naim Co.)
Run through the Naim Audio NAC-52 preamp to the Sound Devices-722 @ 24b/192kHz
Sound Forge just to track. NO OTHER BULLSHIT!
Second night of two. Yes I did go to both. I thought this came out best. Really the only Dead show I really liked. Good ol Poplar Creek. Thank goodness for Archiv.org in getting a setlist and knowing where each song ends. This plays nice and loud on a good stereo system! I forgot until now that I was hitting the pause button between some songs. They sure knew how to waste time between those songs. Enjoy RB
Understand that all this archiving that is recorded in 24b/192khz I am doing SOLELY for myself. It is the best sound! Now sharing it in cd format is lossy. Besides I have enough work to do and consider yourself lucky if I do upload a CD format. If you really enjoy these archives get them at this resolution despite the file size. Down the road you will not be sorry. Is this a nice enough way to say it?
***Everything I do for my stereo room and gear is carefully chosen for the finest of quality control. This means A to B comparisons for EVERYTHING! I leave no stone unturned. I decide if what I do will end up being a more musical experience and not the opposite like more processed sounding. I split hairs!! I have learned what is more musical from all the decades of listening to differences. Stereo and audio gear is not nearly as subjective as people make it out to be. It is either more musical or more processed sounding at the end of the day. One more thing I learned, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE SAME! Practically the same yes! The same, NO! So with this all said…..I thank all the people here for the great compliments since I came here in 2006. It means a lot to me after decades of sleepless nights and stressful days carrying in top shelve equipment every time out!***
With every digital transfer the master tapes become obsolete. If you try any which way to transfer them again they won't sound as good. As long as there are ample backups of course there is no need for them.
