Big thanks to yltfan for this, it's his SBD patch and he hooked me up with the AUD (additional thanks to robertd). You keep sending 'em, I'll keep putting 'em together! (but I hear YLT isn't doing the Chanukah thing this year...damn.)

OK, now the thing I find weird about this; it has a really strange "wah'd" vibe to it. I would have sworn it was out of phase when I started to work on it, but after much testing and scope-viewing I found nothing wrong with either source. Barring that, I thought an overabundance of tube mics or pre's were used, though that's hardly common in a live venue.  Then I listened to it a few times after making some test blends and I really started to dig it. Whatever the strange 3k-ish aura is, it was coming from the stage (and-or the room) and not the sources themselves. And I got used to the way it sounds.

That solved, I tried to find a nice happy place for the two sources to co-exist. I'd say it's about 63% SBD and 37% AUD filled. My only peeve with the final result is that the kick-drum was so overwhelming (even on the AUD) that I lost a bit of the meat of the low-end in my control over the excessive "bip" of each strike. But I'm just being nit-picky.

So, courtesy of yltfan (don't forget to thank him!) here's a rare high-quality cap of BTS for your listening pleasure, and nearly a two hour show to boot.

BTW, keep your eyes and ears ready for more of yltfan's blendstravaganza of sources. :wink:
