Recording and Mastering by Dan Heend - ccryder@ix.netcom.com

Schoeps CMC6-MK4V ORTF DFC onstage -> 
25 feet AudioMagic Extreme Silver XLR mic cable -> Grace Lunatec V2 -> 
AudioMagic Scepter Silver XLR signal cable -> Benchmark AD2K+ @ 24 bit/48kHz -> 
S/PDIF into DAARWIN-24 laptop (Sony Vaio C1VN Picturebook withDigigram VXPocket, Win2K C.L.E.A.R. build, Sonic Foundry Vegas video 2.0d).

Original 24/48 material broken up into tracks using Sound Forge 5.0, 
dithering and downsampling to 16/44.1 using SF 5.0 with highest quality SRC setting with anti-alias filter, 
and triangular 2-bits peak-to-peak dither with equal loudness contour noise shaping.  
*** These files have not been run through SHNTOOL for FIX or STRIP.  

SHN Encoding by Alan Dorchak - alan_dorchak@yahoo.com (1-25-03):

Original 16/44.1 work was provided to me by Dan as tracked, encoded APE files.
The APE files were decoded to WAV,  then SHNTOOLed with  -fix to resolve the sector boundaries,
and then -strip was applied to canonicalize the headers and strip extraneous chunks from the files.
The resultant WAV files were first renamed then encoded to SHN with seek tables appended via MKW.
Dan's original info file was edited to sharpen the content pertinent for this SHN seed and for the sake of brevity.

Additional comments from Dan:

This is one of the best 2 track recordings I have ever done; incredible separation, yet it is still a natural sounding soundstage.  
Steve on the left, Rodney a tiny bit left of center, Mitch on the right, with Bobby sandwiched between Rodney and Mitch.  
This was the only true ORTF rig onstage, everything else was either XY or some kind of weird more distant split.  
This was the only 24-bit recording in the room... ;-D

One last remark from Alan:  Dan -- YOU ROCK !
