Tech Notes

FLAC were decoded to wave. Vegas Pro 12 was used to reassemble the tracks back to 1 long wave. Vegas Pro 12 was used to align & synch both of the sources, isolate and remove background noise, expand the dynamics and widen the stereo imaging. This is a matrix mix of 32.5% KFOG, %32.5% Webstream, 35% FOB.

Notes

Nice sounding broadcast with almost no crowd in the mix. It was more like a straight SBD but with the usual missing info above 16k and minimal dynamic range.

These are differnt than many of my matrix mix efforts in that quite a bit of DSP has been performed. Seperately the 2 broadcast sources did not sound that great. Heavily compressed, sterile and flat with no feel for a live experience. Additionally the mix was lacking Bruce and Jeff. 

The sound processing effort paid huge dividens alone but combining the 2 differnt SBD broadcast is what really made the differnce.
The final result iss a great sounding SBD source that just need some life breathed into it with the FOB.

Although the broadcast sources were received at 16/44 it seems likely they were broacast at lower resolutions but obviosuly still in the high quality range. The high end (cymbols) are tight and not brittle. Plus with all the DSP and the mixdown of 3 sources means this will no longer show any signs of suspect compression.

This is a great sounding source and will do nicely until the band puts out the multitracks. Enjoy, Dan (aka amdig1)
