This AUD recording epitomizes the very best of the Grateful Dead "live sound" for the time. The Wall of Sound is nailed by the sound crew and the Dead for this show. Set within an outdoor Stadium, this close-up infield FOB spatially captures sound from the two Aux PA towers on the infield, behind the taper. The sound delay from the Wall of Sound to the Aux PA towers adds a touch of ear candy as it rolls around the stadium. This was by far the best sound fidelity experience I ever heard come out of a PA System, period. It was a sensational orgy of sound. -- Monte

Audio Patches:

1) At the beginning of soundboard, 23.658 seconds were missing from the SBD source and was filled in with audio from the AUD1 source. This includes the cymbal leadin to Morning Dew.

2) Also between Morning Dew and Beat It On Down The Line, 1 minute and 26.758 seconds were missing from the SBD source and was filled in with audio from the AUD1 source. This includes almost the 1st minute of BIODTL.

3) At the beginning of set 2, 16.685 seconds were missing from the SBD source and was filled in with audio from the AUD2 source.

4) 12 minutes into He's Gone, 48.325 seconds were missing from the SBD source and was filled in with audio from the AUD1 source.

5) At the beginning of set 3, 47.419 seconds were missing from the SBD source and was filled in with audio from the AUD1 source.

6) 1 minutes into Drums, 10.014 seconds were missing from the SBD source and was filled in with audio from the AUD1 source.

7) 4 minutes into Drums, 17.652 seconds were missing from the SBD source and was filled in with audio from the AUD1 source.

8) Concerning speed correction - I released my matrix of this show where I had used the soundboard as the reference mainly because it had 20 less times where the tape was stopped and then restarted. The actual difference was approximately .5% which is fairly small all things considered but still noticeable. A person who's opinion I respect greatly sent me a PM stating:

"I haven't listened to your matrix, but I think CM's soundboard of this runs 0.5-0.7% fast, so maybe the AUDs were actually correct."

After getting this, I re-listened to the sbd and had to agreed. So, I went back and reversed all the times so basically synced this sbd to the audience. Thanks to R.B. for his help in the matter. As most time corrections are very subjective, I really appreciate any and all help I get in these matters.
