(+ patches) 

Note: The Sony JE530 is a minidisc recorder, however a pure digital output is available when using it as a "passthrough" device. Therefore, despite the presence of a minidisc device in this lineage there is no MD/ ATRAC compression. 

Noise reduction setting on master cassettes were ambiguous. I am not certain that this was recorded with Dolby B OFF, however the tone seems proper using this setting

No lineage other than "FM recording from Italy". However, this sounds like an FM master. 
Respeeded x 101.03708364101154662525290321299% (slower) 
Channels swapped. 
Audio inverted. 
These changes bring the sarsipp source VERY much in line with the primary source: 
> Speed of both primary and sarsipp are stable 
> Channels and phase of primary and sarsipp are identical 
> Equalisation, volume and dynamic range are similar 
> sarsipp source has other edits (between songs) *probably* designed to bring the total music time to under 80 mins 
(in order to fit onto one CD). 
> sarsipp source has unfiltered peaks at 16kHz (?) and 19kHz (FM pilot tone). 
> sarsipp source lacks DJ commentary and is therefore not suitable for patch #2. 
> sarsipp source has DIFFERENT version of Unfinished Sympathy and is therefore not suitable for patch #3.
