When you turn on your stereo, does it return the favor?

Would this be the soundboard audio that’s been floating around for years?

That’d be good

It’s actually an ALD recording – different than soundboard. But yes – it’s that nice recording you’re thinking of.

Assisted listening device. What that means, I have no idea.

ALD is just a little transistor receiver than receives a signal from (I believe) the soundman that you listen to with ear buds. It is for people with hearing disabilities. Sometimes they sound great – but often times they sound like shit. It has some of the qualities of a soundboard, but it is not a soundboard and is usually mono if I remember correctly. Typically, you go to a special office somewhere in the arena to get the receiver and they make you leave a deposit or a drivers license to make sure you bring it back.

I’ve often wondered how someone could justify using something like that at a loud rock concert – because it’s hard to imagine someone would have a hard time hearing the music, or that it would sound any better or clearer using a little receiver and ear buds.

I tried it once at an AC/DC show – but could never find a signal. I didn’t want to miss any of the show (I was filming), so I didn’t bother to go back and try to see if I could get someone to help me out with it.

So, basically any of us could use this to record a show and come back to VHT w/ a near soundboard boot?

There are a lot of things that can go wrong. But if everything goes exactly as planned, then yes, you can record a near soundboard recording.

The people who have the most success with these usually use their own equipment (receiver) and figure out where the sweet spot is in a venue for recording the ALD feed (which is basically a weak AM radio signal).

There was a guy in Florida who recorded several really nice ALD recordings from Ruth Eckard Hall in Clearwater while sitting in his car in the venue parking lot. So he didn’t even have to buy a ticket. That’s kind of an extreme case though, because at most places, the signal never makes it that far.

For those that don’t do torrents, I’ve uploaded this to Dropbox.
In addition to the artwork the uploader included with the torrent, I’ve added what I believe to be the proper artwork for this version.

PM me or post in this thread if you would like the link.
