Ok, so i taped nmas wed nite. i was the only taper. ive been pushing my gear lately, trying to not be so damn conservative. so, i ran HOT, way hot, ua-5 peak light all over the place hot. (but no clipping on the jb3 level meter)
so, i get home, and ive got pops and static in places. i thought its because i ran so hot, but ba seems to think its an issue in my gear. (maybe time for a new optical?, or new jb3?) to be honest, i think i agree with him. i ran hot, but my waveforms dont even peak out of the wave editor.
ok, so heres some samples. id obviously love to find a way to salvage the recording. id also like to know exactly what is wrong with my gear...please help me if you can.
This is from disc 1, where the pops are the worst. ive isolated a particularly bad section here:
