March 1, 2014
Wilshire-Ebell Theater
Los Angeles, California
Row W
Hosted by Chris Carter
A Benefit for the Autism Think Tank and Children’s Music Fund
A Hitwitstuff2 Recording!
The original Left channel is a core sound mic, The original Right Channel is a Lectronic Lavaliere that used to come free with the purchase of their wireless units in the 1990’s. I damaged my core sound right mic and was messing around with different fixes when I can across this one. I like it. Sounds very bright and clear where as the core sound mic is thicker and deeper in its sound. I did what I thought sounded best am I’m afraid you’re going to have to live with it. I mono-d the two channels together and balanced the volume core sound mic into the mix until it warmed up the whole thing. The recorder was a Zoom. Editing done with Audacity. No EQ’ing or bass roll-off. file conversion done with switch. Oh and I boosted the volume levels on some of the songs.
Hope you like it. Love to hear some post listen comments.
