// Notes
-I think the overall style of this band is similar to the Return to Forever 2011 band with Jean-Luc Ponty -barkndog seeded a version of this from his CDs in 2009. I don't have a version of that to compare, but the audio files that agalli sent me probably have the same content (barkndog may actually have received the audio files from agalli in a different CD mail trade). -some tracks had microgaps (presumably due to misaligned sector boundaries during an earlier burn/rip), so I fixed those mostly automatically with MATLAB and then did one manual cleanup of a microgap in Audacity -I seamlessly merged the audio across the original CDs by removing the few seconds of repeated audio, and during that process took the liberty of retracking tracks 4-7 -automatically balanced/lowered levels. Some peaks were clipped, so I applied a clip fix operation. To fix all the clipping would require lowering the levels more than I wanted to so there is still some occasional clipping, but overall the audio has good dynamic range. Ross (ledwhofloyd), Mar. 2025
