If you initiate a trade and we've never traded before, I will send my part of the trade once I've received yours.

I prefer to trade in files (FLAC, SHN) if possible.

Many of the shows I have are on audio CDR, although I now only collect shows in file format. I will convert any CDR I have (using EAC) to FLAC or SHN if desired.

I do not copy audio CDRs with gaps between tracks. DAO only please.

Please do not use generic or store brand CDRs. I use only premium brands - usually TY, TDK, Sony, or Fuji.

Do not write on discs. Label disc with sticky-back notepaper only.

Please send discs in sleeves, not cases, and a padded envelope.

I can also do trades via FTP.



GRADING SCALE FOR SOUND QUALITY:

A = excellent (it really can't get much better)
B = very good (sounds great with some minor shortcomings)
C = good (good)
D = fair (eh, OK but has issues)
E = poor (for the completist)

Grading sound quality is subjective from one person to the next. My sound grading of the shows is intended to give a general assesment of the quality.

I don't use +'s and -'s in my grading.

I grade soundboard and FM recordings with a higher standard than audience recordings.

All shows are lossless unless noted otherwise.

*************

I'm in the process of re-evaluating the sound quality of the shows. Many don't have a grade currently. If you are interested in one that isn't graded please feel free to inquire.
