CD 1 & 2 : Charlotte (VA) - October 1st, 2009.
Taper location : Section 111 Row BB on The Edge's side of the stage.
Taper comment : In my opinion this alternate version is an upgrade to the other version circulating by RCarter.
RCarter did a nice job but my Olympus LS10 recorder seems to stand above the Zoom H2 recorder used by RCarter.
Can not say enough about how wonderful the LS10 is, invest in one if you want to record a show in the future.
I recorded the show on a 4GB SD card and the encore switched the 2GB internal memory.
I used the highest PCM setting for this recording 96,000 Hz 24 bit Stereo @ 4.2 gigs total.
I did use the wind covers for the mic's and have to thank my wife for keeping her noise level at a minimum throughout the show.
I also mounted a hand held camera tripod which screws into the LS10 so there would be no rubbing or banging of the recorder.
For the most part the crowd noise was minimal except for a few outbursts from the guy to my right but that's life.
It was a perfect night for an outdoor show. There was a full blue moon with no wind and the temperature in the 60's.
The show came off really well. I thought Bono's voice was above average and the band played tight. |
