More On DTS

Today's audio standards are moving towards multi-channel
sound, like DTS and Dolby Digital. While the Audio-CD
standard (Red Book) hasn't changed to accommodate these
new sound formats, it is still possible to go around the
specification and to put a 5.1 surround recording on a
regular Audio-CD. To play a DTS-Audio-CD you must connect
your DVD/CD player via a digital cable (optical or coaxial)
to your DTS Dolby-Digital receiver. It is not 100% sure
that your receiver will recognize a DTS-Audio CD, so the
first time you're trying to playback a DTS-Audio-CD you
must do a test to determine if it can. Begin with the
volume very low, start the disc and raise the volume
gradually. NEVER listen to a DTS-Audio-CD through the
analog audio outputs of your CD/DVD player.

Burning Instructions

Burn them the absolute same way as you would burn any
normal Audio-CD from FLAC files.

I wish I had more source information than that - 9/18/87 was one of my first video projects and my good friend Lisa Biasi sent me her cds that she had gotten from the band. The first set sounds better than anything then circulating but the 2nd second set was badly clipped and I didn't use it.

Speedwise the soundboard was very close compared to the video and only minor patching at the beginning to match the video.

Taper Notes:

View Notes-----------------------------------------
I released a version of this show on November 2, 2013.  I'm released a new version now.  Why?  Because I decided that at least some of my matrixes have too much AUD in the mix.  It's an easy trap to fall into.  So I thought it was worth experimenting with some re-releases.  (If this one is well-recieved, I may also re-release my 7/8/78 matrix.)

I appreciate any and all feedback people have.  Do you think this release is an improvement over the earlier one?  I know some people prefer AUD-heavy mixes.  Personally, I don't.  My aim is a clean, 'professional' sound.  What do you think?

FRESH LEGS, VOL. 7  (Matrix)
www.facebook.com/freshdeadlegs/

General Notes:

- Thanks go to everyone who worked on and made available the sources used in this matrix.  Obviously, this project would have been impossible without their prior efforts.

- This show is one of my personal favorites.  In my opinon, it deserves to be on any shortlist of the best shows of the '80s.  It's great from start to finish.  The particular standouts are: Sugaree, Masterpiece (Jerry is *all over* it!), and (of course) the Morning Dew, which is one for the ages.

Other high points include Candyman, All Along the Watchtower, and Knockin' On Heaven's Door.  The crowd participation during the first half of Good Lovin' is really great, too (and one of those things you won't notice with the SBD alone).

Source Notes:

- I only retain between-song crowd-noise from AUD sources.  In this case, that means that I cut from the SBD some of the crowd-noise (a) after "Walkin' Blues," (b) after "Masterpiece," and (c) before "Knockin' On the Heaven's Door."

- The SBD is missing (a) the crowd-noise at the beginning of the second set, (b) the very beginning of "Shakedown," and (c) most of "Space."  I patched these from the Healy Ultrabox SBD.

- The Pasternak AUD is missing the very beginning of "Bird Song."

- The Pasternak AUD is missing about 12 seconds of "Space."  The Healy Ultrabox SBD, which I used to patch the main SBD, is missing about 24 seconds of "Space."  These drop-outs do not overlap: there is always at least two sources going at any given time throughout the second set.

Technical Notes:

- The sources were remastered and mixed in Logic Pro 9.  Clean-up was done using iZotope RX 3 Advanced.  The sets were split in WaveLab LE 7.  SBE's were fixed using Trader's Little Helper.

- I speed- and pitch-corrected the AUD sources (as well as the Healy SBD) using the iZotope Radius algorithm.  Fine-tune syncing was done in Logic Pro 9.

- I ran the Samaritano SBD and the Pasternak AUD through iZotope RX 3's Declip function.

- I converted the Pasternak source from 16/44.8 to 16/44.1 using iZotope RX 3.

- Some imperfections remain (mainly on the SBD), as I couldn't manage to get rid of some without a net loss in sound quality.

Taper Notes:

View NotesThis is shnid=20025 patched with shnid=21241. The following patches were made:

(1) The beginning of the second set ('Tuning' and first seconds of 'Shakedown')
(2) Most of 'Space.'

Patch (1): EQ'ed, levels were altered, channels were swapped, stereo image was shrunk.

Patch (2): levels were altered, stereo image was shrunk.

Patching, EQ (Waves Q10), and stereo-imaging (Waves S1 Imager) were done in Logic Pro.

Resulting files were split using WaveLab. I combined 'Space' into a single track, adding a brief fade-out/fade-in to make the transition less abrupt. (As Samaritano notes, the tracks were split at a tape flip and so are not continuous. It sounds, though, as though very little of 'Space' is missing -- as little as a few seconds.)

SBE's were corrected using Trader's Little Helper.
