--2025 Work--


--This Hamilton Cassette source (put into circulation in 2000) sounds the BEST in my opinion - much more Phil and
better dynamics overall. It was however riddled with cuts between every track in the first set and the beginning
of the second and a couple of big cuts during the meat of the second set Jam and Dark Star.
To my ears this source sounds better than the circulating Betty Board and deserved to be cleaned up and patched.
I used all the best available sources (Betty Board & Bertha) to patch the short in-between track sections and
the Miller / Clugston composite for the main patches. Alot of sound editing which included a ton of crossfades,
volume adjustment and overal TLC to make everything flow together and be as seamless as possible - too many
little edits to mention - and included fixing all the pre-existing issues present in the original source.
All sound editing work was done using Roxio Sound Editor (2009).
