Tech NoteThe Grateful Dead May 7, 1977 - Boston Garden - Boston, MA Soundboard Recording Digital encoding and DBX decoding by Rob Eaton CD editing and mastering by The Wizard - Owenbrothersvault@hotmail.com Here is how Rob did his part: Master 1/2 trk 7" reels @7.5ips (DBX encoded)-> PCM beta digital->Sony 2500 dat-> DB Technologies DB3000S for digital emphisis decode-> DB Technologies 924 for D->A conversion-> Dolby 361 modules W/K9-22 DBX cards for DBX decode-> Neve Capricorn Digital mixing colsole (24 bit/ 32bit floating point processing (for level adjustment)-> Panasonic SV4100 Pro Dat recorder (master Decode Dat)-> Master Clone (panasonic Sv3700->Sv3800 via AES interlink) Here is what the Wiz did: Rob's DAT clone>Tascam DA-20 mkII>Digital Audio Labs Card Deluxe>WAVE> Diamond Cut Audio DC-6 (for editing)>WAVE>CD and SHN. Here is what was used for the AUD patches: AudMC > DAT > Soundforge > CDWAV > SHN Taper: Steve Rolfe Sony ECM 33P mic > TC-152 deck A > D transfer by Noah Weiner - November, 2001 AudMC played back on a Nakamichi MR-1 > Fostex D5 (A>D only) Soundforge was used for normalizing and editing. Note: US Blues encore from an unknown SBD source. DBX reel source was unusable. Summary of editing: Rob's decode was masterful and made my job easy. Nothing was done to the sound of the DBX decoded material. Just cleaned up a few issues and made AUD patches. Cut after Peggy-O cleaned up - Aud source cut there also so no patch available... Over the top guitar chord at start of Half-Step toned down a bit to save ears... Two small gliches in Half-Step repaired. Cut in Tuning after Tennessee Jed patched with AUD source. Two small pops in Music corrected. Tuning at start of Set Two patched from AUD source. Small glich in Estimated repaired Cut in Tuning after Estimated patched with AUD source. Pop in Wharf Rat corrected. Cut in Around and Around patched with AUD source. Cut in Crowd before encore patched from AUD source. About 10 bad pops removed from US Blues and it was Equalized and gain adjusted to better match up with the rest. All AUD patches were sonically adjusted to better match up and cross-faded in to prevent a jarring change.
