here is a pic of a file my friend sent me asking if it was lossy but I have never seen this kind of thing before. here is a link to an audipo sample if needed http://www.megaupload.com/?d=G06FCBCC

it looks completely lossless to me, but looks like somebody has very crudely eliminated a 'red stripe' around 16kHz.

just a theory, no other logical explanation I can think of. the original sound of the show should still be fine.

Juxtiphi, compare the image you've just posted to the one you posted from the Zeppelin Honolulu show. As Five says, this one looks like it has had the 'red-stripe removal' treatment, whereas it is still present on the other image. btw, I posted a link in the thread that probably explains the red stripe.

thanks guys I have seen the red stripe before on a few different boots but a cut like that is strange.

thanks again
