Hello board:
I have a recording with some clipping that I think can be corrected, its the bass drum that sounds little bit pitty.

Im not too experienced in the editing area, only know how to transfer DAT>PC and then resample.

I'm using Soundforge 6, also have 8 version to edit, also can use cool edit pro

Here is a sample
http://rapidshare.de/files/20036288/ets.rar.html

Just select FREE and wait the download time a couple of seconds, download link will appear.

Would really appreciate any help, also comments gladly welcomed to use other audio editing programs.

BTW:
You may want to know how this happened?

SP-CMC-8>AT8533>DEN-PS2-MINI>M1
It was my first time using this rig,
My previous rig was:
OKMII/R>A3>M1

Believe me! the bass drum was sooo loud, I could even feel my nose vibrate! all my body was shaking, the other frequencies were heard so good! loud and clear, only the bass drum was way monstrous!
I might say the loudest bass drum ever in my taping history
I was close to the stacks, flooer level, this was it was a general audience basis.
If the bass drum wasnt soo loud, it would have turned a great taping.

I don't think this it's possible to fix this.  The problem is not that the recording is very bass heavy - which could be fixed - but rather it sounds to me like the mics sound overloaded, causing distortion on every bass beat.

Not even using the phantom power!

The Denecke PS-2 provides phantom power, and according to your source info you used the PS-2.  So...I'm not sure what you mean by the above statement.  Clarify?
Milab VM-44 Links > Fostex FR-2LE or
Naiant IPA (tinybox format) > Roland R-05

Brian, Sorry

I misspelled this, even erased it from my post
"Not even using the phantom power!"

Yes, I used the Denecke PS-2

My M1 levels, peak between 2 and 4, never hit the OVER

It doesn't matter what the levels on your M-1 say.  If the SPL on your mics is overloaded it is overloaded, period.  The result: distortion.  Sorry man.
