notes
*** this transfer still had the infamous reel shedding in Caution, which is unlistenable, and really unrepairable.
Here, Marty Weinberg's great AUD was mastered to suit, and patched in the worst 10 minute section of the tape decay.
His aud also had a little issue of dropouts in the area we needed, they were digitally restored.
Some tape decay remains as feedback begins, it seemed a natural place for the sound to get a little nutty.
The complete listen is quite enjoyable now.
- no other board sources were used for any patching here
- the beta had the whole show, however a DAT Stucco transferred was preferred sonically for Set 2 by our team and used here
- sounds better than any source to date, however tape print through is still audible in select spots
- seems same original source material as what's available, attributed to a 'Buddy Miller heavily edited Reel'
- some beta tracking issues fixed with digital restoration first 2 mins of UJB
- countless fluctuations manually repaired with envelopes in Wavelab montage
- no other digital processing applied at all
- a little extra pan and volume adjustment made in AWBYG, as one of the mics seemed distant
