The SHN files were sent to me (SHN files generated on a Power Mac 7100 from WAV files
extracted from a Plextor 4/12 PXR-412C using Toast Audio Extractor), but I was unhappy
with a bit of tape hiss that was apparent throughout the show. I was able to combine
all tracks and apply a noise reduction filter using the Sonic Foundry Noise Reduction
Plugin for Sound Forge 4.5. This got rid of the annoying tape his that was prevalent
throughout the show. I then normalize and retracked the show using CDWav to assure that
all track splits were done on correct sector boundries. There were also a few other
blemishes that I corrected using Sound Forge, but those were minimal.
Any questions?
