rb 24, 24b/192K ** POSTED BY ANALOG **, A Covid-19 quarantine release! :), Mics: Sony ECM-33F (9V round battery), Recorder: 1981 TCD-5M Sony Cassette Pro Portable, Location: 10th row a left of center, Cassettes: TDK SA-X C90: Dolby on but left off for this playback, Playback: Sony TCD-5M unit calibrated to this era (not same identical unit). Tape speed and head alignment, Chord Company Interconnect Cable (Naim Co.), Run through the Naim Audio NAC-52 preamp to the Sound Devices-722 @ 24b/192kHz, Sony Sound Forge just to track. NO OTHER BULLSHIT!, This is the second recording I did on this TC-D5M recorder. The first was Triumph at this same venue. I was so looking forward to this show as I was expecting a 1978 like performance. Boy was I wrong! Not one of the 13 members from the previous tour was here. I also just was not quite in the right spot. I was dissappointed. Not one of my best but there is something to grab out of this show. The SAX tapes gave me a bit of trouble of defects. I finally stopped the playback and looked at the tape and found 1/4 inch ripples. It happened a few times and I ended up shying away from them. Bad batch but who knows. I am not sure about blasting this loud.... Enjoy, RB, **Everything I do for my stereo room and gear is carefully chosen for the finest of quality control. This means A to B comparisons for EVERYTHING! I leave no stone unturned. I decide if what I do will end up being a more musical experience and not the opposite like more processed sounding. I split hairs!! I have learned what is more musical from all the decades of listening to differences. Stereo and audio gear is not nearly as subjective as people make it out to be. It is either more musical or more processed sounding at the end of the day. One more thing I learned, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE SAME! Practically the same yes! The same, NO! So with this all said..I thank all the people here for the great compliments since I came here in 2006. It means a lot to me after decades of sleepless nights and stressful days carrying in top shelve equipment every time out!**
