notes:

- pitch correction +24 cents
- right channel gain reduced by 2 decibels
- quite a number of small dropouts have been repaired, a few clicks removed and a little surplus material
trimmed out.
- there is possibly a splice in Mama Tried with two different sources used, sound quality changes around 0:30
to the end of the song on the raw file. There was noticeably more hiss in the first part.
- Good Lovin'(part 1) fades in.
- there appears to be a cut in Lovelight around 12:16, hardly anything missing though! This is also present in
the other circulating source.

20) NOTE: The MOTB Audience came in 24/96 format and the Sir Mick SBD also came in 24/96 format so this is probably the only true 24 bit matrix to date. After matrix was mixed, R8Brain Pro was used to reduce matrix to cd compatible 16/44.

21) Matrix\DTS were synced using the the MOTB as a reference. The Sir Mick SBD was extremely fast in comparison averaging 102.5 in adobe audition or approx 2 seconds per minute fast. When compared to the only other circulating sbd, the MOTB matched almost exactly.

22) Mixing comment - both the sbd and aud had extremely hot vocals which considering how this show highlights Pig Pen is a wonderful thing. I chose to emphasis the audience a little more than the sbd as the energy of show came out more in the audience.

As Matt Vernom commented:
"this was my 1st "Live" gd show. I was sitting on the stage (~4 foot raised platform and only person from the audience to do so) directly in front of Phil's mic stand. I was 2-3 people stage right of Bob and Barbara who were standing against the stage.

No time to give the full details, but it was my most memorable gd show regarding energy."

I hope this matrix helps capture that energy while retaining the clear notes and cymbals from the soundboard.

Tagging notes:
Show information is embedded within the header of each flac file.
It will display on any player capable of directly playing flac files.
If converted to wav during processing, all tags will be stripped,
however audio data will remain unaffected.
If you must transcode to a lossy format, do so directly Flac > Lossy.
Use ffp to validate audio integrity.
Md5 values will change if tagging is altered.
