Checksum files done in Traders Little Helper



I traded this with the taper back in 1984-85 time, who I believe used a Reel to Reel recorder in the early 1970s, and was a friend of the Fairport mob at the time. This is the first gig of this line up as Ashley mentions in the first banter, of what became known as the "caretaker Albion Country Band"

I gave this Audition CS6 mastering treatment which has made the sound much clearer to my ears - I just need to find out how both this and saving can be done for all tracks together by batch processing.
