littlepieces has very kindly offered this great bit on a couple of other sites, but it does need to be here as well. Great thanks for making this available!!
From initial upload:
Pinkrabbit1 sent me his tape that he recently transferred and uploaded to Yeeshkul. The versions below are new transfers at (48khz) with no clipping.
Million and one thanks to pinkrabbit1 for unleashing this upgrade.

Lineage:cass[low]TDK D90>JVC KD-A5>HTOmega>WAV(48khz)>CDWave>FLAC5
Objective was to create a speed corrected and edited only version as well as
a remastered version using a transfer from better equipment, with no clipping, and sampled at (48khz).
V1: Speed corrected, edited only
V2: Speed corrected, edited, mostly declicked, output levels balanced by several methods, selective parametric EQ, added LP audience segment. Bonus tracks from alternative source or recorder.

**NOTES**
Version one (V1)was transferred at (48khz) and speed corrected and edited only. The Embryo along with the proper audience segment was moved to its appropriate location as the encore. Nothing else was done.
Version two (V2) started with (V1) then roughly 80% of the tics and pops that were present on the source tape were removed. One thing that was present on every track, some more than others, was overdriven segments mostly at ~100hz, but sometimes ~200hz. When these segments saturated and/or dominated, IMO, they were disruptive. I used the parametric EQ to selectively target these segments and lower their output. These were not eliminated, just moderated. Often the moderating of this dominant frequency range allowed the gain to be increased modestly which made the remaining frequencies more present.
Sometimes the left channel was a bit lower and less present than the right channel. I used two different methods to fill out these segments. On the lower level segments I mixed an additional left channel into the existing left channel to increase the output. I also increased the gain slightly in the 1k-5k range and moderated the hiss -4db at 16k. This was done only on the additional left channel which was added to the existing left at a level that would fill out the lefts output. On the left channel segments that were louder but still lacking, I simply increased the overall gain and/or the gain in the 1k-5k range, the result mostly did not exceed +2db.
Added a 40 second segment from the LP that included the audience yelling for an encore before Embryo. Modified the levels and frequencies to blend with the main source.
Included the two tracks from alternate source or recorder,"Animals Over Europe (LAL1330)". Speed corrected and fixed drop out/repeated segment at 13 seconds into Cymbaline.

This is essential to the collection IMHO. The alternate record additions are every bit as brilliant!!

 If I gave you everything that I own and asked for nothing in return Would you do the same for me, as I would for you? Or take me for a ride and strip me of everything, including my pride But spirit is something that no one destroys |

Well, technically, you're right, no they can't be burned straight to a CD as downloaded. Except for the two alternate record tracks, which are already 44.1KHz sampling rate. The others, at 48KHz, can be burned as an audio DVD, and played on pretty much any standard DVD player, or, of course, played as is on the computer. Otherwise, they'll have to be re-sampled to 44.1 for burning to regular CDs......Hope I'm not repeating what's posted on Y!

Burning 48khz to CD is no problem. Thats been a common misunderstanding. After you decode the flac files to wave, just burn them in any normal burning software. It will be automatically coverted to 44khz during the process. Nothing is required. Btw, thanks theembryo for spreading this seed on many trackers. I prefer the V2 version, or "massaged" version as I call it. I wish Yeeshkul would allow sound samples to be offered without using one of those painful free download sites. Thanks |

I was there, I remember that it was raining, we all were covering with plastic and the Thunderstorm was playing together with the sound of set the controls...!
