February, 2012:
Obtained shnid:  114616.  
Used Diamond Cut/Forensics 8.1 to clean up the monitor noise (sounds like an unshielded cable) 
and a little of the oversaturation (analog recorder clipping) on the source.

Three Stages:
1. Concatenated the files into 3 large files (1 for each set).
2. Upsampled to 88.2 kHz (retained 16-bit) using "master" settings with no dithering.
3. Generated harmonics and overtones using a multifilter with:
  a. the dynamic noise "enhancer" setting (noise threshold 500, filter frequency 3500, 
     attack time 25, release 100, HF gain of 8dB.
  b. Virtual valve "harmonic enhancer sweet spot" settings
  c. Overtone generator at 2.9 level, frequency of 7966, output level at 0
4. Used an multifilter for impulse reduction:
  a. de-clipper set at threshold of 43, slope of .300, 6dB gain reduction
  b. narrow crackle filter set at 35 threshold, size of 5
  c. expert impulse set at threshold of 2000, size of 3, tracking at 32, "universal" mode, 
     solo/brass checked.


Thanks to Craig of Diamond Cut for the impulse suggestions; Marc H. for the upsampling idea, 
and Germain for access to the source files.

Monitor Noise throughout show
tranfer Matt Smith 7/2011
Converted to 16 bit via r8brain high > TLH level 6 flac

Matt's notes:
first "Candyman"
The show was promoted by a guy named Jim Tarbell(who also ran the Ludlow Garage).  
After the gig, he paid the band in fine Persian rugs since it didn't make much money

Thanks Matt!
Band complains about monitors throughout the show
Big thanks to John/jpc3 for marking & tagging the tracks
