Weather Report + 3

September, 3rd. 1971

Berlin, Germany

This is created from the original upload that is still running at:
http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=321859
it's been on the tracker since the 12th. of Sept. 2010.

Thanks to the uploader of that torrent.
His was the second time that I know of that this music
was shared here.
I believe the first time it was a rip of a bootleg cd set that is
shown here: http://sudo.3.pro.tok2.com/Quest/cards/W/WeatherReport/index

flac>xACT>wav>Pro Tools LE>wav>xACT>flac

I lost my files from that first share.
I think the one that this is based on was the better of the two.
I can't say for sure though.

Everyone who's already heard it knows how wonderful this music is.
The share from last Sept. was quite good but it had a few problems.

The files when put into Pro Tools LE showed that they were all down
at around -25 or 26 dB. That's quite quiet. And not because all of the music
is quiet.

There were numerous digital spikes in the right channel audio that
would jump 7 or 8 dB.

At some point someone probably had normalized the channels and those
spikes kept the right channel quieter than the already quiet left channel.

So those loud spikes are now all gone.
The music was lacking in low end also.
So I boosted to compensate for that.
I evened out the levels so that both channels throughout are more in line
with one another now.
I then brought up the level over all so that the loudest drum hits are hitting
around -0.2. The dynamics are all still there.
What's gone though is the applause.
The German audience was quite polite and always let the music
fade away before they clapped. It was easy to eliminate it.
That gives this great music a real studio like feel to it.

Thanks to all previously involved with getting this music out.
It's wonderful and I really wish that it would have to be banned someday
because a perfect official release would come out.
