Lineage: iPhone internal mic (mono) -> digital transfer of original m4a -files to PC -> EQ and edit with Soundforge -> conversion to FLAC

Notes:
A recording of the full show Sting played at the Helsinki Classic Festival in Kaisaniemen puisto, Helsinki, Finland (June 16th, 2012). The set list is a bit shorter than on many other "Back To Bass" shows. Recorded approx. 5 meters from the stage with an iPhone, thus the original recording is in MONO. I made slight EQ adjustments and doubled the mono track to a stereo WAV file. There are a few very small glitches on two or three tracks. Also during "Love is Stronger Than Justice" there was a short recorder malfunction for about 10 seconds. I managed to edit the gap out so that it's hardly noticeable.

So all in all, not the best possible recording, but very enjoyable none the less (sound quality 8/10 IMHO). And worth listening to especially because of the unusual set list for this tour. Hope you enjoy!

THE BAND:
Sting
Dominic Miller - guitar
Vinnie Colaiuta - drums
