Volume 1 of this collection was so much fun, I decided to do a Bruce set as well (mainly thinking of the wonderful Stir It Up Jam from the Cap Center in '91.). I'm getting a little more familiar with the tools I'm using, and I think this one turned out, over all, even better than the last.

HUGE thanks for this go to all my friends at Tooboarders.net.

(What, no Jelly Jam :)



Notes:

First, all tracks (28 to start with) were EAC'd from my audio discs. I played around with the order of the tracks until I found transitions I thought would be manageable. Volumes were all over the map, so I normalized them, then applied a fade to the beginning, and blended the tracks. Most tracks had a little cut off the end (you'll notice that many are leading into Drumz~) and I generally applied a cross-fade of 2 to 4 seconds. For some I used a mixng technique to blend the next track into the previous. I had started the set with the "Tuning Jam" from 6/17/91, but this didn't fit, so I trimmed most of it and faded it in. I removed a brief dropout at the end of Stir It Up. I also boosted the right channel in Stir It Up to make Jerry's guitar line more prominent in the middle. For the last track, I found a good "stopping point" just before drums with a small finale, then expanded the crescendo, boosted the bass, added some echo, and applied a short fade out.
