I hand scrubbed 16 claps from set 2 T4, plus 1 clap from set 2T6.  I used some high pass EQ to filter out a bunch of bass rumble from wind effects.  Some issues with the wind were unable to be repaired; but I think I got this recording sounding pretty nice.

Note that there were very very high winds during this show which cause all sorts of undesirable audio anomalies in this recording.  I was able to scrub out most of the worst issues, but some anomalies remain.


SPECIAL THANKS to Justin Marinoff who lent me his Neumann KM184 microphones for this run of moe. shows in Maine while my TLM170s were out getting a tune-up!
