Recorded by the Oade Brothers

The Wav files for Set II were corrupt and unreadable/unplayable. Set I was at 16bits, 44.1kHz.
After listening to parts of Set I it was clear there was something wrong with it also.
I read Set II into the DC8.5 Forensics software, and rewrote the header so that it was listed as
16 bits/48kHz. It then played and sounded right. I read in Set I and changed its header so that it
was also at 48kHz and the problems were resolved. Both sets were converted to 44.1kHz using triple
precision algorithms, no dithering

After that, the only processing was a little bit of editing (fade in at the beginning of the show)
and some equalization to counter the pre-emphasis and roll the bass off slightly below 100 hz to
cut down on the boominess.
