![]() I did this using various techniques, including: After removing digital noise, there was still parts of the song where the music was destroyed, and had to be recreated from scratch. There were 2 songs on this recording that were pure shite. ALD tracks are also all run through a hiss reduction process, as almost all tracks had some form of background hiss.ĭigital artifacts were removed by a noise reduction filter that looks only for digital noise. Remember this if you ever try it yourself. All this does is minimize the digital noise created by some of the editing procedures. All editing is done in 32, then the tracks are mixed down to 16 bit. The ALD issues were mostly solved by experiment, but here's some of the things I used to get this as clean as possible:įirst off, all tracks are converted to 32 bit. ![]() At first I thought it was kind of stupid to go to all this trouble and fall 3 songs short of a complete show, but after listening to the last 3 songs, and doing a bit of remastering on them, it's almost hard to tell they aren't mixed with ALD. The ALD for this show is incomplete as well - the last 3 songs are missing. The ALD however is full of dropouts and digital noise, and that makes it infanetly harder. The audience recording is almost perfect, with almost no fallouts or imperfections. This is the result.Ġ4-28 is a great show to experiment with. I thought of recreating the mix from scratch to see if I could improve upon it, then figured I'd try a different show and see what happened. I disliked the fact that in some places, there are significantly loud crowd reactions, bad singers, yellers, screamers. CTP is a great mix, but not without issues. When I started collecting U2, and I asked people what the best recordings were from the Elevation tour, and many pointed me to the 05-03 Cleveland show - the ALD/AUD mix known as the "Cleveland Tea Party". ![]() As bad as they sound though, ALDs are great for one thing though - enhancing already good audience recordings! Nothing sounds worse, IMHO, than a pure ALD recording - and so it should - remember the purpose is to help hearing impaired individuals hear mid to high end sound. So why would I spend weeks getting this mix just right? Who cares? Well, if there's one thing I've learned in the last few years of trading Springsteen and U2, you can never have too many good shows in your collection :-)Īnother thing I have learned, is that ALDs, by in large, are crap.
