OK, regarding the technical details:
I recorded the O2 gig with my Sony PCM-D50 linear recorder, with the built in mics, at 48.00 kHz / 24bit (which was obviously not necessary, but...), from the left of the centre, about 30 metres from the stage. In Carddiff I used 44.10 kHz / 16 bit, I was probably a bit closer to the stage.
Actually, the higher resolutions DO help, my friend.
Even when you downsample them to 44.1/16 from 48/24 or even 96/24, the sound quality still translates (sounds) better than something recorded at 44.1/16 straight. Strange as it sounds, it's true.
Thanks otherwise for uploading your recording! :-)
If you want, I'll rework these as FLAC files and torrent them for you once I get all of them downloaded.
Thanks for the info! Listening to the Cardiff files - which I will upload tomorrow - I do feel the difference between the higher and the lower resolution... anyway, I had to choose 44,1/16 in Cardiff, otherwise I could not have recorded the full gig...

Yeah, as an occassional bootlegger myself, I know the pain of having to sacrifice some quality in order to get the whole gig on disk/card. That's why, when Queen and Paul Rodgers come back to Canada next year, I plan to upgrade to the Edirol R-09HR AND get one or two SDHC cards with more storage than the one I have right now (4GB) before I go see them again, since the R-09HR does 96/24. I also plan to upgrade my microphones before then as well.

Yeah... my Sony also does 96/24... but I could not have recorded even the O2 gig with this resolution on the 4 GB of the Sony... (and yes: I forgot to take the extra card to London and Cardiff... shame on me...) the 2 shows were almost 4 GB, and I'm happy I made this sacrifice, so now I have both shows... By the way, the audience around me were much better in Cardiff, so I think it was worth it to record that show too... and it still sounds quite good in my opinion. You'll see (hear) it tomorrow...:), I'm just uploading the files (8 files this time) to Rapidshare.

Need I remind you Evan that you are the reason some bootleggers do NOT want to upload their boots around at the moment?
I know of quite a few boots that are trade-only for that reason partly, but I am not permitted to speak about them ;-)

I'm not 100% sure what you mean by that when you say 'Sir GH talk'.
But in any case, YES, not permitted to speak about them :-)
I even have a sample from one of those shows from one of those said bootleggers ;-)
And no, you may not have it.

Thank You very much!!!

I will be, along with Cardiff.
I'm just unfortunately busy half the day with being at work (like now, atm - I'm on a break though as I write this)
I'm up to about part 9, 10 on the O2 downloads. Soon as all of those are done, I'll load them into Adobe Audition 1.5, re-join and re-split them properly by track, and then go from there.
They will be uploaded as a torrent first, with Mediafire links to follow (and NO I will not do Rapidshit uploads....those are uber evil!)

Thanks for sharing this! I would Flac and torrent this but if there is a "cleaned up" version on the way I'll wiat for that :)
