Here are the audio files of the new VHS restoration in three flavors. Please feel free to share but also please DON'T modify the files. All of these are restored, remastered, and prepared for delivery. They are not "completely flawless" of course. The tapes had some inherent issues burned into them that are not fully repairable. Mainly gaps (tape cuts) and channel dropouts (right channel). Though clicks, pops, buzz, crackle and some other issues were addressed. These are a significant upgrade to every other versions that came from the first "leak" and should be a good replacement for those files in your collections. It was a deliberate choice NOT to try to "frankenstein" a source to fill those few edit points with other currently available sources. It just won't make sense sonically. The exception to this was adding the end of Piper and Free from the Vimeo rip source. Different circulating audience sources were used to bring in the concert ambiance. Ideally I would discourage further attempts at a so called "matrix". The restoration of this audio was time consuming, tedious, and meticulous. It was done to create THIS version. Not to create a starting point for tangential projects. But whatever.

From what understand there were two sets of tapes made back in 2000, or maybe 2001. One was recorded and never played back. One was played back from time to time over the years. The later was used to make the original stand along VHS to DVD-R that was not supposed to but did leak online. This is from the set that sat in storage since they were dubbed.

[[[UberDemon said: What's the source lineage? I didn't see any specifics in your text file.

Is this from the same leak as what's been circulating since late summer, or did you have access to a lower gen VHS tape? I know there is an ongoing effort to do a new capture/cleanup from VHS masters - for clarity it would be nice to know if that's what you're releasing, or is this a remaster of stt4's leak? What was your starting material?

Thanks for clarifying.]]]


This is from the project you are referring to. From VHS tapes. Not from DVD-R. Not a lower gen VHS tape. From what understand there were two sets of tapes made back in 2000, or maybe 2001. One was recorded and never played back. One was played back from time to time over the years. The later was used to make the original stand along VHS to DVD-R that was not supposed to but did leak online. This is from the set that sat in storage since they were dubbed. This is all to the best of my understanding. I don't know if they are digibeta to VHS or digibeta to VHS to VHS. I think it's the later though.

Also the preemptive answer regarding tape two is that no, it is not plagued with crackling like the first so called leak was.
