Jeff's notes:
-- Cass > CDR: Sony TC-D5M->EQ->HHb CDR 800 Pro. 
-- The Cassettes were EQ'd slightly to accentuate the high end, as mics were a bit low at the show.
-- This was my second Jerry Garcia Band show. I brought my Nakamichi CM-300s and Sony WM-D6C into the show but wasn't able to use the mics for some reason. I don't remember why. A friend of mine had his D6 patched into a nice set up in the sweet spot; FOB center! It was: Neumann KM-140s (Near Coincident)->Techniques SV-250 DAT->Sony TCD-D5M->(his) Sony WM-D6. Jim's D6 was a first-year model, not a D6C, so it lacked some features of the newer models. His had only Dolby B (which nobody ever used anyway) instead of Dolby C and would not take metal tape. The most important difference in his D6 to mine was that the 1st-year models DID NOT HAVE A LINE OUT! He didn't want me patching into the chain ahead of him so I had to get copies of the show off of the DAT. I thought the show was pretty good, but for some reason my cassette copies have too much bass and the high end is a little muddy. I remember that the taper with the mics had big windscreens over them. Maybe this cut the high end too much. I wish I could remember his (the tapers) name. That was 18 years ago! Really colorful guy, along with his friend. Told stories about taping Jerry shows from years past. There were two guys. The main taper had the Neumann KM-140s->Technics SV-250 and his buddy had a D5. The mics were run near coincident on the T-bar. (There must have been some outboard phantom supplies because the SV-250 (sister of the Panasonic SV-255), I don't think supplied phantom power. But...I'm not sure. The same guy also taped The Allman Brothers at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles around that same time, because I got copies of both shows from him. My cassettes were directly off his DAT master.
