Note | The original recording was in excellent shape but IMHO did need some attention to fix a few issues, mainly:
- Wrong speed/pitch (I determined that the original plays +51 cents sharp) - some rough edits due to cassette swap & stop - slightly excessive tape hiss - insufficient bass response (IMO) The basic details of the mastering applied to the original 24bit/96Khz version from djscomics seed on Dime (using Wavelab6) are as follows: A: edit/fill/crossfade cassette swap & stop points (to disguise the abrupt/rough edits) B: Fix mono portion of Track 1 'Bohemian Rhapsody (Opera)' C: Time stretch by 103.1% (equals -51 cent pitch change) D: Slight de-hiss E: EQ / Multiband Compression / Limiting (-0.2dB max) / Dithering to 16bit (bass boost & tighten up the sound) F: WAVs edited to fit on to 2xCDRs (with overlap) plus fade in/out (using the same CD break point as the original) G: track split |
