Notes

A very good raw soundboard recording demuxed from single-cam pro-shot footage from the latter of two 'Ultra Parties.' This source might sound slightly duller than previous copies, as those copies received EQ and other tweaks. This version remains unmodified, except for normalization.

This recording includes 33 seconds of pre-show audio, it's worth noting that the first 19 seconds of the video lack audio, so it was trimmed from this fileset.

The pro-shot video, from which this audio originates, can be found at Source 2. Additionally, there's a soundboard + audience matrix version at Source 3, and the original audience recording used in the matrix can be accessed at Source 4.

Thanks to RyanJ for digitally transferring the MiniDV tape.
