Wow, this is weird :-( I don't have the flac files anymore but I still have the wav files, and LOML is there. Looks like an error during the encoding ? I try to re-encode it and upload it as soon as possible

Pogor1: If you would have listened the track number 17 of CD 1, you clearly can hear Love of my life and '39... Don't worry Pittrek, the song is in your share :)

WTF - error number two ? I have two Paris boots, one entitled "Crazy In Paris" and one "Bonsoir Paris", so it's probably "Crazy in Paris" :-( But the date IS correct

This is NOT meant as criticism, just as advice to those of you that like to burn your downloaded files to CDs. Preamble: I chose to split track 17, turning "Love Of My Life" and "'39" into separate files. I used Adobe Audition to manually split the file, so I knew there was a great risk that I had created a sector boundary error, an SBE. Music files on a CD need to have a very precise length that match sector boundaries on the CD (I faintly remember that the split has to be done at 1/70th of a second, but I may be wrong, so feel free to correct me). If the files are of the wrong size and you burn them to a CD, small gaps and/or pops will appear between the tracks as the burning software adds what is missing for the tracks to comply with the CD standard. The SBEs will not matter if you only listen to your FLAC files on your computer, but if you burn the files and later on want to rip the CD in order to re-create the FLAC files, the gaps and pops will stay. Once created, you can't get rid of them (unless you manually edit the audio track, and then probably create new SBEs). So, you need to fix the SBEs before burning the files. When I analysed CD 1 of this download, I saw that all the files had SBEs, not only track 17/18 - I conclude that you, pittrek, like me, split the files manually. I now have software running that will fix the SBEs, so that it will be possible to burn "perfect" CDs from this lovely share. The software in use is really shntool, but there are GUIs to make life easier: If you are on Windows (before Vista), use Trader's Little Helper, TLH: link , if you are on a Mac, there's xACT: link For Windows, choose the "Audio File Details" tab in TLH, add the files and click "view details" - that will show you that you need to click the "Fix SBE(s)" button that will appear to the right. The rest is pretty self-explaining - just don't forget to uncheck the "Preview w/o making changes" button when you are ready to go. The program will take care of the rest for you. :)

Ok... just to clarify, both Bonsoir Paris and Crazy In Paris are both from the Feb 28 show. Bonsoir Paris is a silver on the Gypsy Eye label, but Crazy In Paris is a home-made title. There is no silver from the March 1 show. Perhaps you could update the lineage... ?

pittrek wrote: Hey, thanks a lot for your reply. Yes you are right, I didn't think about people who want to burn this as CDDAs. I personally keep my audio collection as flac files and burn as cddas only the concerts with both excellent performance AND sound quality. When I do a multi-source compilation, I save my work always as 2 big wav files, then manually split them into separate wav files, which I encode to flac files with VUPlayer. My next share will have correct SBEs, I promise :)
