My VHS is in VG+ condition overall but there are a few places where the tape falters. Another copy of this increasingly rare release that I have heard is quite dark in comparison. The mono version is different to the 1974 stereo production in a number of ways. Examples include: * A more spacey start to the Intro, which doesn't feature the familiar DSOTM inspired heartbeat * No vocal reverb in Echoes * Gilmour's guitar enters later in Echoes Part I in the mono version * Clear and sinister whispering in the opening to Echoes, Part II and the crows at 35 seconds on the stereo version are absent. Goldenband advised me to apply a standard -4% change to compensate for PAL speedup. I wanted to keep both channels and azimuth adaptive matching and adaptive azimuth alignment in iZotope helped me ensure that they are well balanced. Neonknight, April 2021 |
