Chronicling and reviewing show's I've attended, taped, traded, or discussing projects remastering audio and video of said shows. I trade live recordings of hard rock and metal, and focus mostly on the bands Tool, Nine Inch Nails, Alice in Chains, A Perfect Circle, Chevelle, Deftones, Avenged Sevenfold, Stone Temple Pilots, etc. This is just a blog, so no downloads are hosted here. Contact me if you can't find something through the appropriate channels. NOTHING DISCUSSED ON THIS BLOG IS COPYRIGHTED in any shape or form. It is all fan generated content for the use of other fans. Finally, please support the artists by buying their official records and attending their shows... And most importantly, share FREELY!

Tool - 2001-09-08 - Indianapolis - Matrix, Remaster

So while I was home sick a few days last week, I took to task my first attempt at matrixing a show from two seperate sources. I think this turned out really well, so I thought I would share. Enjoy!

Notes: Due to the length of the set and the difficulty syncing the entire show, I removed most of the Tuvan intro. And really, only one of the sources had it in full anyway.

This was another project I undertook on a whim. I was not at this show sadly (I wasn't even a fan of Tool yet at the time) but my best friend was there and wanted to see what I missed out on.

In the end these sources mixed together alright, so I thought I would share. Neither source on it's own is all that bad, but Version 1 was mostly top end and a bit distant, and Version 3 (which sounded like it was taped from a lot closer) was much more bass heavy. Both sources have some issues with crowd noise. However, that said, they complimented each other nicely once mixed. The music is pushed up and the crowd noise gets pushed down a bit, and you get a nice response across the full frequency spectrum.

Big thanks to Geordy for linking me to the Tool drive, which was where I was able to get both of these sources.
