From Randy. "Hi guys. Here's a remaster of the Abecedarians in 1985 at Beyond Baroque. It's a SBD in right channel and AUD in left channel with a 19 millisecond delay between the tracks (similar to Joy Division at YMCA). It actually is a great listen in the raw on a stereo, but in headphones it's a bit awkward to enjoy in a "natural way". So I split the channels, turned the AUD into MidSideConfig. Stereo by doubling the Left Mono to Stereo and inverting one channel to bring it in as the "sides" with the mono R (SBD) as the "mid". I used Izotope Ozone and Neutron mixing and mastering software to bring out the low end and clarify the highs, without boosting the air in the recording any more than it already is. Came out pretty damned good...and an improvement for headphone listening...sounds like stereo now instead of mono as well. I made artwork too. Enjoy!" I applied some hiss reduction, fixed a couple of crackles in quiet spot and tightened up a blank space between tracks 01 and 02, as well as applying a fade at the end.
