# TAPERS NOTES:
- "It was [recorded] from Sec 309, Row 14, Seat 3"

# transfer & mastering notes:

- Taper trusted his recording to u2start after a successful lobby of Nate 
aka nbkraft. Excited at first to have a complete JT2017 Foxborough, or 
"JT2017 Boston," but soon somewhat disappointed because the recording suffered 
from severe rumble caused by wind blowing at the mics, and sometimes the music 
itself gets somewhat blown away.
Not uncommon however to outdoor recordings and not necessarily a huge problem 
if it weren't for additional distortions during BTBS all the way up to In God's 
Country. These distortions sounds like someone actually rubbing the microphone 
and they were very annoying to say the least.
I managed to clean up most of the rumble with the iZotope RX 5 “spectral repair,”
but the above mentioned section (i.e. BTBS, RTSS, RHMT & IGC) is still 
substantial compromised. Here I had to choose between “microphone rub” and 
“process sounds.” It could have been done differently – and no doubt it could 
have done better – but I can only hope that even with these sub-optimal tracks, 
this share is still worthwhile.

Thanks again to squintyt4e/bp for trusting his recording with me (and u2start!)

Special thanks to Nate for all his efforts to make this share possible in the 
first place!



^ NB: Taper claims to have used a "Illudium Q-36 MSYC" next to the 
AT 933 and Edirol, but I have no idea what that could be other 
than some reference to Marvin the Martian's "Illudium Q-36 Explosive 
Space Modulator." According to urbandictionary.com, "it is a fused 
device used in a contraption designed to destroy large heavenly bodies, 
namely Earth." 
I trust it is some kind of insiders joke (of which I'm obviously left out!),
but perhaps it will someday be explained to me...
