Notes: AUD portions: brought up a touch and evened out with Soundforge 8, no EQ or noise reduction used.
preFM SBD source: levels saturated on a couple of songs. Recording volume was too high and it seems that dynamic compression was used to limit clipping during the normalisation process. I reduced the recording volume by 5% on all the preFM tracks. There is no clipping or distortion present.
FM source: Hiss reduction with Adobe Audition 1.0. This was reluctantly used because the recording had audible hiss even during songs. I EQ'ed the 2 tracks used to match the sound of the preFM recording. I used A Night Like This from the FM source because the preFM track had overly audible record noise and static during the song.
Thanks to the 3 folks who provided the source material for this seed.
