------
This is a nice opportunity for comparison between
24bit and 16bit recordings. I messed up my 
recording of Set One, but Todd graciously provided
me with a clone from his master. 
Both sources are using the same SBD > AD2K, one
feeding my laptop at 24/48 and the second output
feeding Todd's DAP1 at 16/48 using 16NS3 setting.
The main difference being that I resampled and 
dithered in post using Soundforge, and the DAT
source was resampled/dithered live with AD2K. 
All that mumbo jumbo and the difference will not
be very noticable at 16bit/44.1k, however the real 
difference lies in the 24 bit recordings themselves, 
which are a dramatic improvement over the DAT source. 

Some SBD pops are present during first few songs
of Set 1. Sounds like it's from Ben's Bass. 
This was the best of the 4 show run they did with Tim O'Brien
