audience recording

Setlist:
1. Animals Need Animals
2. Dark Autumn Hour
3. mom (banter)
4. Rosemont
5. Bethlehem
6. Mount Marcy
7. The Deep-Yard Dream
8. Adirondack Amish Holler

Lineage:
(Church Audio STC-9000 mic/pre package)
cardioid microphones clipped to glasses at temples for binaural recording
-> STC-9000 preamp (gain +30db)
-> rockboxed iRiver iHP-120 (gain ~+8db)
-> stereo WAV(M)
-> Audacity (1.3.2-beta) post-processing: normalize + remove DC offset, track splits
-> FLAC (16-bit) 
and then
-> MP3 (LAME via Max 0.7.1 'transparent' setting) ~190Kbps VBR

Comments:
The transition from Bethlehem to Mount Marcy is really smooth. I recommend treating this as a gapless recording.
