Taper notes: d1t01 - Technical difficulties at beginning of recording. The bass roll off switch stuck and there was not a level on the left channel. The units had to be shut off and reset. Right channel copied to left channel to patch missing first 30 seconds of left channel. Dropout of ~1.5 sec at 0:28 (when units were reset) was deleted and is fairly unobtrusive. Levels and bass were a little hot until adjusted at 0:45. d2t04 - small glitch noted at 3:59 smoothed out. Still present but decreased and does not interfere with overall enjoyment of the recording. No other issues noted.
