Also included are Toast/Jam files & a printout for the CDs (so you can either use the Jam file to create the disc or use the "Audio starts in Pause" timings to have a track end when the music stops and the subsequent track start when the music begins).

Notes:

Tape flip at the end of d01t01.

Recorded on a Hitachi 290, using the microphone from the RCA YLS 15B portable reel to reel recorder. Original cassettes were transferred to a Mac DAW using a Nakamichi 480. The analog signal was first run through: a) a SAE 2800 parametric equalizer to bump the highs slightly; & b) a Phase Linear Autocorrelator to remove hiss. Lo Cut filter on Mackie 1402-VLZ used to remove grunge below 75 Hz (-18 db/octive). Transferred to the Mac using a MOTU 896/Bias Peak. Bias Deck used to splice tape flips & even out volume levels. Bias Peak again used to transfer SDII files to WAV files for shn compression. xACT used to fix SBEs & encode to SHNs.

This recording is one of literally dozens of concerts recorded by Joe Maloney in the late '60s - late '70s to be released to the live recording community. The bulk of the concerts recorded were in the Boston area, with some in Maine venues.

Thanks for the great post of this show. It looks like Joe went through alot of work to convert these shows. Does he have a site where other showsmight be posted? Anyway thank you for all of your great post on this site I probably dont thank you enough for the great Pink Floyd material. Your efforts are appreciated.
