Grateful Dead
August 20, 1972
San Jose Civic Auditorium, San Jose, CA

Recording by Olaf Schiappacasse (using Gene Taback's equipment):
Master Audience Cassette; Sony TC-124 with Sony Stereo Mic (Pacific Stereo Cassettes)

Transfer and FLAC encoding by David Minches:
Master cassettes played back on Nakamichi Dragon > Digital Audio Labs Card Deluxe soundcard (96Mhz/24 bit)> HD
Editing performed in Adobe Audition; L3 Multimaximizer>Waves Z-Noise; Dithered and downsampled to 44.1 MHz / 16 bit; Flac Encoded

The sound of the recording varies from section to section.  Fortunately the best sounding parts include the longer jams.

Many of the sounds are missing the first couple of notes due to the fact that Olaf paused in between most songs.  There are many other warts - too many to document.

I decided to using some post-transfer processing since the recording\'s level were very low and there was a pretty good amount of tape noise/hiss.  As you\'ll hear, I still left a good bit on the finished product.

Be patient with the recording since the sound improves quite a bit as the show progresses.

Thanks, Gene, for providing me with your cassettes.
