NOTES:

To seamlessly join the two discs, simply remove D1T21 and D2T01.

Set my levels a bit too conservatively on this one, so I ran the recording through Waves L2 to reduce the dynamic range a bit and increase the levels throughout. Clamped to Rob Carney's stand just left of center. A gorgeous day of sun after two very rain days and nights. S-U-N...woohoo! During quiet sections you can hear the lovely St. Vrain burbling off in the distance to the right of the stage and viewing area. First time using the MK21 sub-cards outdoors, and I love the broad, deep soundstage and the open, natural sound the MK21s bring to the recording. Enjoy!
