Recording, editing and mastering with Wavelab 5.0. All cables were Mogami Gold 0.3m pro-audio XLR cables. All components in the transfer/mastering chain were powered from a Cyberpower 1285AVR noise-attenuated uninterruptible AC power supply.

Taper Notes:

View NotesThere are two anomalous frequency peaks throughout both sets and on previous sources.  The first is centered between 7 and 8K with a second between 15.5 and 16.3K.  The exact frequencies varied between each song during the first set while there were only differences between reel flips in the second set.  This required mastering each section with a separate Waves Q10 paragraphic eq setting with supernotch set for the involved frequencies.   Also there is some degradation in tape quality around the margins of the tape flip during Wharf Rat.  The flip in Wharf Rat was crossfaded.  All editing and mastering was done on 24/96 file sets prior to cd-audio rendering with MBIT+.

Taper Notes:

View NotesSBD -> Dolby A Reel -> Dolby A decode -> DAT -> Sound Forge NR -> CD-R; apparently sourced from <a href="http://db.etree.org/shninfo_detail.php?shnid=112" rel="nofollow">previously-circulating</a> Leigh Orf seed, with possible additions by Jason Lunz; note d2,3 have same md5s as previous copy, but d1 md5s are different.

The Sound Forge noise reduction was used to attenuate a very narrow frequency band (in the vicinity of 8000 Hz) which was present as interference on the original reels.  See http://members.home.net/orf/notch.html for details.
