Taper Notes:
View NotesThe 1st Set seems to come from a different source. It was somewhat too speedy and needed to be reprocessed. So for post processing the 1st set was speed corrected by 2.2 percent. I used existing Archive SHN Set soundboard (http://www.archive.org/details/gd81-05-12.sbd.jeffm.1664.sbeok.shnf) as a baseline. I used Audacity to do re-speeding operations. My original DAT seemed to have a few inopportune fade-ins and fade-outs as well as cuts in drums. I removed any annoying fade-ins and cuts using Cool Edit 2000 (CE 2000). With CE 2000, I used linear crossfading to smoothen the most viral cuts and fade-ins. There is a fade-in on the source DAT for the encore, Don't Ease Me In. I could not anything for this and left the original fade in.
