"HERE THEY COME" (LPP)

SQ Rating: EX

Pink Floyd
20-Jan-1972
The Brighton Dome
Brighton, England

Source for this offer was downloaded Jan 2007 on Yeeshkul, text file doesn't indicate who uploaded it. Many thanks to taper and uploader. Original Txt file included.

Original Lineage: A(0)->HiFi VHS->DAT(2)->SHN
New Lineage: A(0)->HiFi VHS->DAT(2)->SHN-->Wav->ACL11->Wav->Flac7

Considered best source for this date. This source ran slow and had an occasional tick/crackle that apparently is not unusual for HI-FI VHS sources. Also, when Breathe first kicked in the taper was readjusting his levels which was a bit disruptive.

Speed corrected -3.0%, Removed most of the occasional ticks/crackles, smoothed levels of first 12 seconds of Breathe. Applied very slight EQ, very slight NR, and smoothed a few tape starts since taper was stopping between some tracks. Also ended Set1 after AHM since this is where they took their break.

I rarely use NR and I am not adverse to typical low gen analog hiss since I grew up with it. I made an exception here after getting a good hiss sample and conservatively applying it. The spectrograph showed little music beyond 10k and I left more than 2k of buffer above the music. The result is perhaps a 30% reduction in hiss.

More Notes Below:

Set1 44:13
01 Speak To Me 2:14
02 Breathe 2:45
03 Travel Sequence 7:51
04 Time 6:22
05 Breathe Reprise 1:43
06 Mortality Sequence 4:26
07 Money 3:37
08 Atom Heart Mother 15:10

Set2 62:12
01 Careful With That Axe Eugene 10:51
02 One Of These Days 8:37
03 Echoes 26:01
04 A Saucerful Of Secrets 16:42

Total: 106:25
