Tapers Notes:

Regarding the taping of the show, "My right mic must've been brushing against something intermittently.
At first it sounded to me sorta like breathing into the mic, but I was nowhere near close enough for that.  Where I had the mics, it could have contributed to static off my clothes.  I don't recall if there was carpet under the seats, but there was surely some down the aisle that probably juiced me up a bit.  I do need to get or build a power supply because rock shows much louder than this overload my Microtrack even at the lowest input level when I use the mic inputs.  Sadly, the 20 dB attenuator I got from Core disrupts the built-in juice to the mic."

MASTERING NOTES

First off a huge thank you to squirrelmagnet for taping and sharing the recording with me to help master.
I originally did a manual remaster of her recording back in October 2009, and that came out fair, but we never pulled the trigger on torrenting it.  I have since found a good DSP (iZotope Ozone 4) with many useful features and have decided to resurrect this project and use that tool to make the sound as robust as possible.
The ones used for this mastering include:

Loudness maximizer with 17.5 dB gain throughout the whole recording,
with hard limiting for the clapping / audience between songs.
Low and High end gain with Parameteric EQ (no more than 5.5dB max on any band)
Multiband Harmonic Exciter with 5.9ms delay between 2kHz and 10kHz
Multiband Stereo Imaging - different settings for the 4 default bands, 2.4ms delay for 20Hz to 120Hz

Artwork:

None.
