Tech Notes:  I won't bore you with a bucnh of of useless info about what I did.  My thoughts on a good Matrix is they are like hybrid vigour.  When you mix two animals of high quality but very different characteristics, the resulting offspring is typically stronger than the parents.  I hope I achieved this result.  

Any questions or comments feel free to email me at drgseeds@hotmail.com  Enjoy and peace.  Jim

Digitally remastered using a custom built, Dual-DAW, nicknamed Bertha, by jashley@deadacated.com on April 3, 2003.

The first sounds like it was from a different source than the second set.   The channels were reversed on the first set, as well.  The channels were corrected prior to processing.

Because of the difference in sound quality between the first and second sets, they were processed separately. The objective, as well as improving the sonic quality, was to match the sound from set to set, as close as possible.

The last 20 minutes of the show is patched from a Soundboard/Audience source and was also processed separately.

The patches on d1t01 and d3t03 were done by others prior to receiving the show.

Taper Notes:

View NotesFrom 1:33 to 5:58 of Shakedown Street there is a level drop in the Right channel.
I used some FFT filters in Cool Edit Pro to make a version where the volume drop
is less jarring - however there is a significant increase in the hiss in the
Right channel. The original file is named d2t01 (clearly this is d2 of what
would be a 3CD show - whether or not discs 1 & 3 circulate) - and the amended
version is named d2t01-alternate. If you have the .shns, you have a choice of
which version to burn to audio CD.

I also retracked the Eyes>Space>Drums sequence.

Known flaws  
Levels fluctuate throughout the whole show, some audience participation in spots, d3t04 cut,d3t05 cuts in..

Notes:
* Special Thanks to Gerry for Taping this and sharing his masters with me, these were transferd from Gerry's Reel's in the Mid 1980's when tape trading & collecting had a social aspect to it. If you are familiar with Hot Tuna 5-8-74 Gym S.U.N.Y. Stonybrook, NY , Gerry Taped it as well as many other great shows ..enjoy..

** My cassette was not labled with location but Gerry taped 11/2/79  Behind Stage Right 30' 300 Section elevation , this could be from same lcoation.
The Band had a set of PA's above the drumers

* there is a tape flip after Weir asks the question, the answer is missing from this recording.
  He says "... and the answer is, one leg's both the same."

# tape flip in Drums has been crossfaded

The volume from 0:32 of s2t15 through to the end of the show was significantly lower in the left channel.
I boosted it by around 6.5 decibels.  This section sounds slightly inferior to the rest of the show.
