notes from trailmix 3-18-07:
 Project WBOTB 
 these shns were SBE fixed (by set), decoded to wav, and encoded to flac16 (level 6). the process was repeated, resulting in identical .wavs. 
 although the original shns were created in late 2001, they've not circulated and they aren't listed in the database.
  major thanks to the WBOTB crew for putting this together. especially Tim, who got me the discs so i could tidy them up for mass consumption.

Digitally Remastered using the Bertha Digital Audio Workstation, by [email protected].  Completed July 14, 2006.

The original source is all over the place.  The volume is way up on some songs and way down on others.  Some songs appear to have been slowly faded up.  Some songs have decent bass while others have almost no bass at all.  There is also a hiss-like noise that appears and disappears from the left channel and does not appear on all tracks. Not a clue as to what this noise is. These things were corrected to the extent possible in an effort to achieve a more consistant sound throughout.
