recorded and shared with permission of Tim O'Brien.  Thanks to TBone for setlist.  Thanks to RigPimp for asking me if I was interested in multitracking this show and to TBone for being my liason with Tim.

Soundcraft Vi2 mixer > all channels direct outs plus two Rode NTG-2 shotguns onstage pointed out at audience > Mackie Onyx 1640 > firewire > PC (Sequoia 7.22, 24 bit 44.1kHz)

My Beyerdynamic MC930 microphones were used for Tim's mandolin and Bryan's guitar.  Stuart travels with his own mic, Mike used a Shure (model?) supplied by The Freight.

post: mixed in slight amount of a stereo audience recording [made openly with permission by Marcus with Schoeps CMC6XT linear microphones in audience (8th row center) > Edirol R-44(?)] with the live multitrack mix in Sequoia 7.22 > Sound Forge 10 Pro (track, normalize by peak levels,  convert to 16 bit [iZotope MBIT+ basic2 psych9 1 bit dither], export tracks to .wav files) > Trader's Little Helper (level 8 encoding, align on sector boundaries) > flacs, ffp, md5 files
