There is a cut at 8:15.360 with 0:09 of music missing. Taper's batteries are gradually running out, leading to increasing distortions and a flutter effect. Pitch remains largely unaffected. d2 t02: Distortions and flutter remains until 8:02.297 where there is a cut with 0:11 of music missing. After that, the recording continues with fresh batteries. DIME member plaz_restore kindly provided me with three different aud sources of this show. This is his source B. Two versions have been circulating on DIME according to the bot list: one uploaded by jkeisers in May 2008 (torrent 198332, "Miles Davis - Pescara - July 16, 1973 (request)", and one included in an upload by alienman in May 2005 (torrent 40690, "Miles Davis 1973 Stuff Part two 8 Cds"). The jkeisers upload is source A, apparently a higher generation copy of source B; the alienman upload does not match any of the 4 sources collected by plaz_restore. There also exists a Mega-Disc bootleg. Source B (with some restoration work already done by plaz_restore) is the most complete source and covers the whole show. However, it has two cuts and a serious issue with battery power during set 2 (see notes above). All of these issues are not there in source C, which lacks about 30 minutes of music in set 1 and 2:43 at the start of set 2. The recording is quite good for an aud of the period. Reggie Lucas's guitar is a bit dominant in the mix. add.edits.plaz: - smoothed out gain fluctuations near start of track 2 - balanced channels - repaired clicks, pops and drop outs - clipped and/or attenuated close applasue Inamorata 24bit processing/remaster: - Inverted right track as channels were phase opposed - Variable phase correction: +0 to +2 samples in right track - Pitch correction: set 1 +90 to 100 ct, set 2 +90 to 105 ct (ProTools LE) - Repaired clipped applause (Izotope RX) - Further smoothed levels (ProTools LE) - EQ: raised high frequencies by approx. 6 dB (more would overemphasize existing high-level distortions) - Declick, decrackle and NR filters at faily low settings (Izotope RX, ProTools LE) |
