AUD (shnid=29304):

Source: Sony ECM-939LT stereo mic > Marantz PMD-340 cassette deck.
Sony UCX-S 90 cassettes, with Dolby B On. Taped by Andrew F.
Mic on 7-foot tent pole, center seat of 30th row (rear orchestra).

Transfer:
MAC > Sony TC-D5M > Marantz CDR-500 > EAC > Soundforge > CD-Wave > FLAC
Soundforge used for fades and to smooth out a few rough spots.
There were too many yells and hand-claps to deal with, so I left those as-is.
CD-Wave used for track-ID?s, and FLAC Frontend for lossless compression.

Notes:

My seat was in the center, but far back and under the roof of the mezzanine. This
resulted in the tape sounding a bit distant, and with a ton of audience noise.
This tape is definitely of the "warts-n-all" variety, but I decided to release it
since the circulating sbd is muffled and has static, and I haven't yet found a
good audience upgrade.

On the plus side, it's a great show for mid-80's fans, and Brent give a great
performance. The sound mix coming from the stage improves in the second set. The
30-minute Thunder Machine > Space > Other One segment is the show's highlight.

For those who don't know, the Thunder Machine was a day-glo painted contraption
on bike wheels that was made of old car fenders, piano wires, things to bang on,
and pieces of horns attached to hoses. Kesey and the Pranksters "played" it by
hitting it and manipulating it in various ways. It also appeared at 8/16/81 and a
few other shows. At this show, Jerry, Bob, Mickey, and Billy played along.

[d2t05]: There was a moment when the drummers left and the stage was empty while
they wheeled out the Thunder Machine. I used this opportunity to flip the tape.

d3t05: The little wind-down jam at the end of Miracle is cut where I faded and
changed tapes. I managed to get it done before the start of Morning Dew.

d3t08: The band skipped Sunshine Daydream and went straight to Brokedown.

Enjoy!

Thank you to Charlie Miller for the SBD transfer,
and to Andrew F. for recording the show.

Notes:

Something happened with the SBD tape, beginning with Terrapin Station, where the speed fluctuated much more heavily and frequently, making the project about three times as difficult and requiring much smaller increments to work with. Also, the weird "mid-80's" static in the mix during the second set affected the speed/position slightly at times. I had not worked on a matrix as difficult as this since 9/9/72 (Vol. 64). All this being the case, the second half of the matrix is not quite as stable as the first half, but still pretty good overall.

Soundtrack Pro was used to remove several digital anomalies.
