Because of the position in which I was seated, I had to be very discreet, so I set the levels low. Although most of this tape is very good sound , i did have to take out background hiss as when the levels were boosted, the announcements were still very quiet. Noise reduction has been applied but theres still a bit of hiss if played loud on a system with lots of top end. Otherwise, overall its a nice sounding show , not A plus, but mostly excellent as long as you don't crank it to the max. Pat's guitar was really loud at times, this has been cured by lowering volume on specific notes using spectral tools in Audition, it now sounds fine on my system .
crowd noise is non existent .
