----------

As my very first seed, I had undertaken a couple of years ago to address some of the flaws on the Matrix that originally circulated. While I was reasonably successful, experience is a good teacher and in the intervening years I had also discovered additional problems with the original Matrix seed. Because this is one of my favorite shows, I decided to have another go at it. As it stands now, unless somebody uncovers another original Matrix DAT, that this is likely to be the most complete and carefully edited version of this show available.

----------

Known issues in this seed:

Tracking errors (mostly minor) were fixed throughout; SHNTool used to repair sector boundaries after retracking.

Some gentle EQ was applied to both ends: +3 dB at 60 Hz (rising to +6 dB at 20 Hz) and +1.5 dB at 10k Hz.

Drums and space are seamless, with space now moved to disk 3.

The following patches were provided by Stephen Porter's audience cassette, editing in Peak:

1. Crowd noise before first set and the first few notes of Iko restored, total of about 0:42.

2. Inexplicably, in Stagger Lee, the lyric "Went down to DeLyon's CLUB in Billy DeLyon's blood" contained a splice rendering it "Went down to DeLyon's SAID in Billy ..." This is mysterious because Garcia didn't sing that lyric incorrectly. The line is now patched correctly; see also #5 below.

3. A segment of about 0:25 was missing from the end of To Lay Me Down and the beginning of Let It Grow, previously covered by a slick splice that was nonetheless an elision. That segment is now intact, though there is a brief (< 0:01) level drop in the first few seconds of Let It Grow.

4. Let It Grow is now complete to the end, patched beginning at 9:22.

5. Inexplicably, the first half of the second line of Scarlet Begonias ("Not a chill to the winter") had been patched from a later part of the Matrix ("She was too pat to open"). This is mysterious because Garcia didn't sing that lyric incorrectly. The line is now patched correctly.

6. Several seconds were missing in the transition from GDTRFB to I Need a Miracle. That missing segment is now restored.
