Note: The Sony JE530 is a minidisc recorder, however
a pure digital output is available when using it as a
"passthrough" device. Therefore, despite the presence
of a minidisc device in this lineage there is no MD/
ATRAC compression.

Editing:

I adjusted the amplitude as follows:
============================================
(On side 1):
0:00 - 49:55 :
Left channel (no adjustment)
Right channel + 1db
49:55 - 50:25 :
Left channel (+6db)
Right channel + 1db
50:25 - 50:51:
Left channel (fades from +6db to +3db)
Right channel + 1db
i.e., on Side 1 of the master cassette, the Right channel was increased by 1db
and the Left channel unaltered, except for a 1 minute section at the end, where
a couple of changes were applied in order to mitigate some dropouts.
============================================
At the begining of side 1 I reduced some microphone handling noise with a bass
filter, but afterwards I added some (different, copied from the very start
of the recording) bass back in in order to smooth the sound. This is a subtle
change, but makes the filtering that was used to remove the extraneous noise
less obvious. (Some microphone handling noise remains).
============================================
(On side 2):
Prior to encore:
Left channel + 1db
Right channel (no adjustment)
After encore:
Left channel + 3db
Right channel (no adjustment)
============================================
Used Adobe Audition de-click tool to remove a minor "thump" - probably
microphone handling noise - 7 seconds after the tape flip.
============================================
