Neil Young & Crazy Horse May 9, 2024 (rescheduled from May 8 due to weather) FirstBank Amphitheater Franklin, TN
Source: SP-CMC-8 pair > Zoom H1essential > Izotope RX10 (mastering/cleanup) > 16/48 FLAC Location: row L, DFC Recorded & mastered by Mr. Sifter
Mastering notes: EQ to remove a bit of the muddiness, Izotope Music Rebalance to boost vocals slightly, I think my seats were slightly too close to pick up vocals as well as I'd liked. Boosted the acoustic section a bit to reduce the level discrepancy somewhat between that and the rest of the show.
Longest show of the tour so far, CH debut of "Vampire Blues" and first "Sedan Delivery" in a decade. Second encore was unplanned and a very nice surprise. Long live the Horse.

The source had instruments and vocals panned almost entirely to one side, like an early Beatles stereo recording. Extracted tracks via DeMix Pro & mixed in Logic Pro. Not much bass on the master tape, unfortunately, but did the best I could do.

2024 notes:
Stems via DeMix Pro, remixed via Logic Pro, mastered via Izotope Ozone & AbbeyRoad TG Mastering. Finally, a stereo version of this show, albeit via digital means. Not for the purists, and certainly not definitive, but an alternate presentation of this excellent early Heartbreakers gig.

Remaster notes:
This comes from a leaked in-house video, so the 'low-gen SBD' vague notes of the source are a bit misleading. Demuxed using DeMix Pro, remixed to give the drums a bit more presence, try to find at least a little of Howie's bass when I could, and give the rest a slight stereo image to open things up. Used Ozone Spectral De-Noise to remove quite a bit of unpleasant noise throughout the tape, unfortunately there are no other known sources to patch the occasional moments of static that crop up now and then. Mastering done via Izotope Ozone.
