Source: MSR>C>C>DAT

Conversion : DAT @ 48k - > HT OMega 7.1 Soundcard (Optical Inputs)>WAV (48)> Syntillium
Cool Edit Downsample to 44.1 WAV>CD WAV (Track Split)>FLAC

Notes

a) Stella Blue and Deal were seeded from Daryl Sacks previous soundboard and
soundboard/audience version that was removed from Etree

b) The last half of Seastones and the last part of Stella Blue > end of show were
patched with Jerry Moore's MC>D>CD (AKG D1000s>Sony TC - 152) audience recording -

c) The audience portion of Stella Blue was pitch corrected by 1% to match the small
soundboard swatch - this makes Stella a more seamless experience as you go from sbd
to audience patch

d) OMSN and US Blues are from Jerry Moore's audience Patch

e) Traders Little Helper (bless its little heart) was used to correct SBE errors in
the edited Stella Blue

f) I would take the source information with a grain of salt. There might be an extra
cassette gen in my original DAT seed. However, this is an excellent sounding tape and
no longer available on the Archive for streaming. And this took hours of work to get
this together - but well worth the effort : - )

Tagging notes:
Show information is embedded within the headerof 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 st5 to validate audio integrity.
Md5 values will change if tagging is altered.
