Robert Hunter - Jack O\' Roses - 24 bit, 48 kHz LP transcription

This is a 24 bit, 48 kHz transcription of a pristine copy of Robert Hunter's long out-of-print LP Jack O' Roses. The analog rig used to extract the sound from the grooves is near state-of-the-art, producing essentially none of the tracking distortion or surface noise normally associated with LPs. The sound is cleaner and more detailed than you may have thought possible in LP transcriptions. Equipment used for A/D conversion: Linn Akiva phono cartridge Linn Ekos SE tonearm Linn LP12/Lingo turntable Audioquest LeoPard tonearm cable PS Audio PS2 preamplifier Kimber PBJ interconnect M-Audio Audiophile USB A/D converter The mildest possible declicking (Click Repair, DeClick 1, DeCrackle off, wavelet method, pitch protection) was used to eliminate some of the more obvious ticks and pops. Other than that, there has been no noise reduction.

Thanks, just read a bio on him and Jerry (Garcia) said that the version of "Terrapin Station" on this LP, actually finishes the story rather than the ambigous, open ended one we ALL know and love from the Dead. Take Care
