I often get the mix just right direct from live source to MD, so I don't
need to adjust the EQ much if at all. All that usually needs to be done is
to boost the volume. I deliberately record low so that if I get sudden
dynamics occurring on stage they don't get clipped. It's also nice to run
off a virtually untouched copy of the original onto CD as a WAV file before
I do any production editing because that means I have a backup I can restore
if I make a mess of the editing. It's far easier to recover 74 mins from a
CD in about 5 mins than to re-record the MD to the hard disc again.
