comment from original audience:
This is not a sbd. It was made with a stereo sony mic on the front of the stage in front of
the keyboards...
That is why TC is front and center and the vocals are low in the mix.

t6 - Cryptical reprise
t7 - Doin That Rag
t8 - Me & My Uncle

notes:
- The opening notes to cryptical sound like there are digital artifacts, but that's the way
it sounds on the straight transfer.
- We think sbd is actually a PA tape, not a soundboard as it appears to be mono. We modified
it to align better with the l-r distribution on the audience tape.
- For the audience files we used the Reel as a source and a spectral difference filter to
match the overall sound of the audience to the reel.
- The Introduction is noticeably louder than it is on the audience tape so that it can be
heard better. Because it comes from the audience tape, the sound is muffled and boomy,
but it's a fun part of the show so we included it this way.
- Final edits to the PA and MTX files were done separately, so they do not match exactly.
