Taper 1: Steve Hopkins
Location: FOB
Lineage : Sony ECM-99a > Sony TC-158SD > cass[master] >
DAT[?] > cdr[?] > EAC > WAV > archived in shn

Source comment: T.Mack (Yeeshkul): Almost certain this is a Master DAT clone and even if it's not, it's still damn good.
PRRP: Have a Cigar version is closer to proper speed but trails off after 18,000Hz more than this version.
Both have step-wise processing artifact after 16,000Hz but Have a Cigar verion goes to zero and
this version does not. This version is clipped and runs too fast but both problems were corrected.

Remaster
1. Correct clicks, pops and tape imperfections of each source
2. Match EQ and verify pitch in each source
3. Dynamics differed between sources so channels balanced, clipping repaired.
4. Sync sources and correct speed
5. Repair missing sections using material from alternate source to complete each recording.
7 gaps repaired in Hopkins restoring 6 minutes and 41 seconds to the recording.
7 gaps repaired in Lampinski restoring 1 minute and 18 seconds to the recording.
6. Create stereo field
7. Correct phasing and center sound
8. Adjust dynamics
9. Track


Notes:
Limited stereo field noted in each source. This is improved by the 2-source blending process
'As the Fear Grows' stated by one of the tapers at 5:15 of Sheep,
Roger shouts '48' at 12:26 during 'Pigs (Three Different Ones).
In Lampinski source a strong whistle can be heard just before the beginning of Wish You Were Here. It is heard faintly in Hopkins.
Money guitar solo differs from typical performance, using interesting effects.
Roger announces 'Us and Them'
Roger says 'The perfect end to a perfect day' at the end of the performance
