This is a speed corrected and restored version of the complete 4-disc set that is 
circulating.  It replaces that set and an older 3-disc version that cut off during
"Comes A Time".

The 4-disc source was missing the beginning of "Dark Star" and "He's Gone".  
Those parts were restored using clips from the 3-disc set.  Also restored was
a short blurb from Weir at the end of "Morning Dew".  "Ramble On Rose" has been
moved to the beginning of disc 3 where it belongs.  Detailed notes on the 
restoration are below.

Thanks to terrapinstation for providing the newer 4-disc set that this was based on.

** Restoration notes **

Source tapes:

SourceA - A complete version of the show and the primary source for this
recording, but the beginning of "Dark Star" and "He's Gone" are missing.
Tape speed is fast by .95% to 1.5%.  Volume levels on most tracks had been
pushed to the point that there is digital clipping, although it is largely
inaudible.  Disk 1 has several clicks.

SourceB - A 178 minute version that ends part way through "Comes A Time",
but with a complete "Dark Star" and "He's Gone".  The volume levels are 
7 dB lower than SourceA, there is more tape hiss, and it runs 2.25% slow.

Both of theses sources came, ultimately, from the same soundboard tape.

For this restoration, I used Cool Edit Pro as my WAV editor.  Also used were
Sonic Foundry's Clipped Peak Restoration tool from Noise Reduction 2.0a, and
Wave's X-Noise noise reduction tool from Restoration Bundle 1.0.  

Noise reduction was done only on the missing parts of "Dark Star" and "He's 
Gone" from SourceB.  All tracks had the DC Offset corrected to zero.  And 
most of the tracks were run through Clipped Peak Restoration with the 
post-limiter enabled.

The speed correction probably won't be noticable to anyone but musicians who
try to play along with the music. <G>

Silence that was removed was actual silence, not quiet time between songs.

Finally, I changed no EQ settings or volume levels except on the clips from
SourceB.



* Disc 1 (all tracks slowed by 1.25% except T13, 1.5%)

D1T01  Removed click at 3:08
D1T03  Removed click at 4:04
D1T06  Removed click at 4:40
D1T07  Smoothed tape transition at 4:40
D1T10  Removed 18 seconds of silence at the end of the track and a 2 1/3
       second clip that was a repeat of the beginning of "China Cat 
       Sunflower".  How it ended up here I'll never know.
D1T11  Removed clicks at 2:40 & 2:47 & 2:54
D1T13  Removed 2 minutes 48 seconds of silence at the end of the track


* Disc 2 (all tracks slowed by 1.5%)

D2T02  Smoothed tape transition at 3:19
       slowed 1.75%      
D2T03  Remove 7.4 seconds of redundant sound at 4:54.
       slowed 1.75%      
D2T04  Removed 1/3 second of redunant sound at 0:18.6


* Disc 3 (all tracks slowed by .95%)

D3T01  Remove 2 minutes 39 seconds of silence at the end of the track
D3T02  After speeding up SourceB 2.25%, boosting volume levels 7dB, and 
       applying noise reduction and EQ, the first 1:13 was pasted onto 
       the beginning of the SourceA "Dark Star".  Not quite as seamless 
       as the "He's Gone" patch due to differences in the stereo fields 
       of the two sources, but still pretty darn good.
