File Too Large. Limit for this filetype is 97.7 KB. Your file is 266.3 KB.

Yeah could you just PM me an email address to send it to? I don't really know when I'll be on aim since I've been on and off all day at random times since I've been hanging out with the family today.

The posters name is CoolAsIceCream and the post is the third last. I hope this helps.
Thank you very much. I've been meaning to try it out for quite some time.
I'll probably be seeding a Minus The Bear show later today or tomorrow, just in case you are interested.

Re: Is this mp3 sourced?

this is 100% mp3 sourced. Frank did *not* release a lossy copy ever... and no one else has these songs.

yep not only is it MP3 sourced it sure looks like a mp3 that has been burned to aufio and extracted at least once. If you want to know for sur just ake a look at hideout 1 and compare the 2, but sets were record with the same rig so they should pretty much match.

Re: Is this mp3 sourced?

There's no way those screen caps are from an mp3. I can't comment on what Frank would or wouldn't release, but those are just simply not mp3.

Re: Is this mp3 sourced?

actually now that I look this looks alot like hideout one, minus the ugly bit of noise at the end of the file. It still looks like it's been burned and extracted once to me. but it's kind of hard to tell from the images posted so far.

Re: Is this mp3 sourced?

That spectrogram posted by Punkishlyevil makes me think it was lossy sourced. Note the dark (black) areas on high frequencies, when there is more energy on lower frequencies.

I've attached some screen captures from a MP3 file with a similar spectrogram profile.

But sometimes is hard to tell... ...spectrogram and freq analysis sometimes have unconclusive results...

It's not MP3, it might have some sort of error at the end of that track, but it's not liek we will ever get another source on this.

Re: Is this mp3 sourced?

Since all these pictures were taken from only one track, should I check another from the compilation?

this must be high bitrate. I'd like to see a SA zoomed in to 1.5 seconds if you could...
