# Short dropout in PA system at the show, causes a brief 1 second dropout on the 
  recording at 1:48 into the song.

Seed Notes:
- Fades have been applied to the beginning and end of sets only.

- Levels were run really hot during the beginning of Birdland, there's some audible
clipping when things get loud. It was noticed by the taper and dropped at about xx:xx, 
but the levels continued to clip a little for the remainder of the 2nd set. For this 
reason I normalized the second set to -0.30 dB (using the peaks, not the RMS), and then
dithered (triangular - 2 bits peak to peak). Both processes were done in Soundforge.
The result is that the files in the second set peak at -0.30 (safer for your audio
equipment). It's the first time I've had to go through this process, so if you have
any criticism's, please share them by leaving a review at the Live Music Archive or
in the db.etree.org Sources In Circulation database.

- the tapes contained a fade-out/fade-in between set 2 and the encore. I edited out 
about 10 seconds of silence between them. It's not really noticeable anymore, except
for the fact that the band comes back onstage after about 30 seconds instead of taking
a few minutes.

Pops in the recording were removed from the following places:
d2t6 - 15:28 - still has an echo that comes through the PA.
d2t6 - 15:29 - still has an echo that comes through the PA.
d2t6 - 15:30 - still has an echo that comes through the PA.
d3t5 - 05:36 

Enjoy!
