Transfer: Soundboard source: Tandberg 9241XD (Dolby B decoded)
Off-air FM source: Tandberg 9241XD (Dolby B off) > Macintosh with DigiDesign AudioMedia III soundcard >

Pro Tools (minor "nip & tuck" edits, normalization & tracking) > AIFF > xACT (Flac level 8 files with sector boundaries verified). md5 file created with checkSUM+. The sections that were spliced in were missing from the station reel. That reel started with the stage intro and the encore break was cut out completely. For that reason the station reel was likely a 1st gen. copy and not the master. However you label it I think it sounds great (check the sample to judge for yourself).
