SBD/AUD Matrix Blend by Ryan Schubert
Taper Notes:
View NotesBlend by Ryan Shubert April 2026 Mixed in Reaper 7 at 24-bit / 44.1 kHz. The two sources were loudness-matched and sample-aligned per song. The blend is approximately 60/40 SBD-dominant across the musical range, with the sub-bass being 100% SBD and the high-end leaning SBD as well. Processing was deliberately light and transparent: - Light corrective EQ on each source (linear-phase, iZotope Ozone 12). The SBD got a small subsonic cut and a gentle presence-range trim; the AUD got a high-pass to clear room rumble, a low-pass to tame the HF cliff, and a few small bell cuts in the low-mids and presence. - A very light master EQ (sub-1 dB moves) and a true-peak safety limiter set at -1.0 dBTP (touching peaks only — no loudness processing). - No compression, no saturation, no dynamic EQ, no reverb, no stereo widening, no time stretching or pitch correction. ================================================================ NOTES ================================================================ - Set 2 is seamless (as in the original Miller SBD). - The Miller SBD already contained a small AUD patch in Drums from 2:05 - 3:02 (source: etree supplies). This patch is retained in the matrix and blended with the Clugston AUD at the same point. - Two brief audience source dropouts occur during Sugaree (d2t03). In the matrix, the SBD continues uninterrupted at these points, so the dropouts are not audible in the final blend. Noted here for documentation. - Track boundaries were set independently for this matrix and do not match either parent source exactly.

Taper Notes:
View NotesAs I was not at these shows this is more of what I have been told between the contemporaneous stories and those from years later. The previous weekend the tapers had been told not to try to go FOB at the Frost. Therefore Mike and Kenny chose to ride it out alongside Aaron's crew and patch in to their customized microphone, pre-amp and dbx noise reduction system. All the credit goes to Jaime Poris and James Olness who were some of the west coast tapers who comprised what I term the "second wave" of Grateful Dead recordists. These guys came of age in the late 1970's to early 1980's when the game was all about sneaking in the gear. By this time in 1986 Dan Healy had created the OTS (Official Tapers Section) and for certain tapers often correlated to certain venues this became a grand audio engineering experiment of "best practices" for recording live soundfields. The setup they used for these shows was a customized Nakamichi 700 microphone with each omni capsule placed into plexiglass plate for increased frequency response. Also using a custom microphone pre-amp instead of the onboard Sony TC-D5M preamps. This signal was fed into a dbx224 customized for battery power and then into a splitter box which had both a dbx and Dolby output. This recording's master originated from the dbx output side then decoded for this first gen copy. These are truly unique recordings which sound equally as good as all the fancy words spent describing the gear.
