ALD = Assistive Listening Device [This is essentially an in-house FM broadcast]

This was recently shared by ademotte on June 6th 2016 and it has a real nice sound.--thanks--

Even though it sounded good there were distractions.
So many technical issues that needed to be addressed.
Loud static bursts in places, distortion, plenty of pops and thumps, numerous short gaps and the volume was so low it was hard to hear.

Decided to fix these problems so spent the day with headphones on.....

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

volume increased by 10dB - all tracks

08-Long May You Run [15.732 KHz tone removed, gap removed, crackling removed, remove crackling, remove pop, remove thump]
*-not sure why the tracking is like this---[it had an overlap and it's not like that anymore]

continued repair details:
all tracks combined with additional gaps and glitches removed between tracks at that time
Harmonic balancing - equalization
Stray peaks reduced and volume increased by an additional 3dB (for a total of 13dB)
60 Hz tone removed
broadband eq touch up
Final glitch repairs removed another hundred or so noises missed the first time around but certainly some may have escaped my attention.

Remaining issues:
The applause sections seemed processed so there was likely some noise reduction performed at some point.
A low level electrical noise is still in the background and I was unable to figure out how to remove it.
Not bad but it is there.
****************

Easier to listen to without so many distractions and at this higher volume level.
It's not perfect but it's a lot better.

Thanks to the original taper and to jagraham for sharing this nice capture in July 2006.
Also to ademotte for posting his version at the Dime recently.

I wrote to ademotte asking about "ALD" and his reply was:

Hi, Mike - sure, whatever you want to do to fix the recording would be great.

ALD = Assistive Listening Device

This is essentially an in-house Fm broadcast. It's a low-powered and low-frequency signal that generally doesn't extend outside the room.

Quality of these systems vary, which is why on some of them you hear frequent bursts of static and limited dynamic range.

You can probably get more info if you google it.
