The Academy

New York City

Excellent sounding soundboard with ambience cassette master.

Lineage: 

David Hardy’s cassette master (no Dolby).

Stereo soundboard plus 2 x Sennheiser 421 mics mounted near stage side fill speakers toward the audience for ambience (live matrix mix) > cassette master. It really sounds a lot like a soundboard-only recording, except that some audience noise can be heard low in the mix in the background.

Transfer [2020-09-01 by grner1]:

Nakamichi Dragon > Macintosh with Digidesign Digi001 interface > Pro Tools (normalization, minor “nip and tuck” edits and tracking - no EQ or DNR) > AIFF files > xACT (Flac level 8 files, tagged with sector boundaries verified).

grner1 Notes (2020-10-14): Special thanks to David Hardy for the source tapes! There is a tape flip at 3:54 of track 107 (We Don’t Have To Wait). There is a tape change at 4:17 of track 203 (Karl Perazzo / Raul Rekow). There is a tape flip at 9:09 of track 210 (Boogie). The disc change is seamless.
