Post Processing
===============

These shows are soundboards, and sound great. Originally, however,
2/11/70 suffered from a very low bass mix. I played around with a bunch
of EQ curves (using Sound Forge 4.5), burned selections with different
EQ curves to CD-RW, and listened on my good stereo to decide what curve
to use. 2/2/70 also was low in the bass, less so than 2/11, and I did
the same to determine what kind of EQ to use.

Secondly, for the 2/1 Lovelight, the right channel would completely
disappear for anywhere from seconds to handfuls of minutes, which
obviously sucks. So I mono-ized it where this occurred, pasting the left
channel to the right where it went away. Much less annoying.

As a side note, I must say that my philosophy is ONLY EQ IF THE
RECORDING REALLY NEEDS IT. I asked myself, would I enjoy the music as
it is? The answer was, sortof. My next question was do I enjoy the EQed
music more? The answer was a resounding YES. I hope you enjoy it too.

There is a bonus track included. You win absolutely nothing by
determining where it comes from. I will probably eventually seed the
entire show from whence it came.
