#mixing & mastering NOTES:

Full rig audience recording was kindly offered by Alysha and just perfect for the matrix. Somewhat distant, but no intrusive screams and/or chat! Only gave it a de-click (aka "de-clap") treatment in the RX 05. Then mixed in mostly bass and ambient (audience) noise.

For the XAVEL IEM I applied a so-called "New York compression" in order to better balance the vocals with the guitars - and all the rest basically. Overall a pretty smooth ride, although it took me a few mixdowns to come up with a satisfactory result. Main challenge was Keith's set, as the master's vocals were really low in the XAVEL boot to start with. So I gave that set a slightly different mix. It's not perfect, but I guess it never really was - no offense to Keith, it's the XAVEL I'm referring to.

Alysha's recording starts somewhere halfway JJF. I've tried to patch it with the Bol&StrettonBull source, but I didn't manage to get it much better then the plain mixed XAVEL IEM's, so I just faded Alysha's source slowly in (one might hear the sound becomes more "thick" - or "full" if you like).

I wish I came up with a better title than "Too For Dartford" (pun intended), but I guess I don't have the balls for "That Double Shit Dub..." which is actually the better title when you think about it... Ah well, you can't always... (and all that!)

MANY, MANY THANKS to Alysha for recording & suggesting to use his pull, and to Andrea82 for liberating the XAVEL boots! + Huge thanks to Sharebear/Hoserama for his ongoing encouragement and advice! & Special thanks to IORR for inspiration to do this 2nd London show as well!
