David Bowie Glasgow 5th January 1973 Very good audience recording Files sent to me > Audacity > TLH > FLAC 01 Let's Spend The Night Together 02 Hang Onto Yourself 03 Ziggy Stardust 04 Changes 05 The Supermen 06 Five Years 07 The Width of A Circle 08 Life On Mars 09 John I'm only Dancing 10 Moonage Daydream 11 The Jean Genie 12 Suffragette City 13 Rock and Roll Suicide This is a very rare recording. Much of it emerged on a the CD - BUT, in abbreviated, and rough, form - as if it were from a rough vinyl pressing. This is a slightly re-worked version - I have done my best to sort out the channel bias, widen the sound a little (sounds good in headphones in particular that way), and reduce some of the hiss (a little - I don't like hiss removal, as that way you remove music too). The process I use in Audacity to widen the sound, usually consists of the following - -9db decrease (as the mixing and combining needs space) double up the tracks, add .01 sec delay to one of the channels, split channels and mix either side (balance achieved through trial and error) Combine above doubled up track with untouched track with the latter at a higher level. The above mixing while giving a nice widening effect I am more than aware can sometimes sound artificial to some, and I have found combining it with the untouched file means a balance is achieved between the raw sound of the original and the mixed version. Studios used - and I'm sure still do - used to resort to all sorts of double tracking and compression effects and the bottom line is this method I found by trial and error sounds good to me and others. Those who do not approve or find it does not sound good to them - no-one is forcing you to download this. Voila...I listen to live recordings in headphones for the most part, and many people listen in headphones / earphones these days. This may sound better to many like that, and I am aware that through conventional speakers this sort of mix / re-work may or may not sound as good as an untouched version. It's very subjective, and very much down to individual preference. Where I don't provide samples the downloader who is unsure about this can simply pick one or two tracks to ascertain how good this is, just as I do. Re balancing and tuning of the sound carried out with mda_image and high and low pass filters in Audacity. |
