In anticipation of what may be SCI's final Winter Carnival coming up next week, I've decided to transfer one of my favorite runs of SCI shows, and a few other gems that have yet to see the light of day.  I'm starting off with some shows from Winter Carnival 2002.  The SBD/AUD Matrix's of this run need to be heard.

This particular show is really special.  Not only is the music outstanding (the 1/2 hour Footprints with Skerik, Stanton Moore, etc., is one of my alltime favorite SCI jams...it really gets out there), but this is sourced from a mobile truck recording studio.  I have numerous officially released OTR's and all sorts of other SCI shows.  These truck tapes are far and away the best sounding SCI shows I've ever heard (bold statement.....definitely)!!!!!  The sound quality is just about perfect.

So, to prepare for next week's shows, sit back and enjoy these shows.  If you even remotely like SCI, you'll want to make sure and d/l these next few shows.

Mobile Truck Tape:
An audio mobile truck (also called a 'remote truck' or 'mobile recording truck') is the same as a regular recording studio except that it's located in a vehicle. 
This, of course, gives it the flexibility to move from place to place to record 
live events where they happen.

A mobile truck recording is likely to be superior to taping from a SBD feed inside the venue for several reasons: 
	-Provides a stable, known system that works
	-Provides a constant listening Environment 
	-Provides a listening environment separate from the concert venue

When taping from a SBD feed inside the venue, usually the sound engineer inside the venue will have to make certain adjustments make it to sound good in that particular room.  To some degree they are compensating for the inherent flaws in the microphones, speakers, and how echoey/boomy/etc the room is. 
The sound engineer makes sure things sound good through the PA, however, a recording is likely to sound dramatically different through good studio monitors in a recording studio.

Editing Notes:
-Fades added at beginning and end of sets with Cool Edit Pro.
-Tracking done in CDWave.
-Transition between discs is seamless.
-EAC was performed with offsets corrected in secure mode.
-All tracks were 100% error free when extracted with EAC.
