Metallica
Giants Stadium
East Rutherford, NJ
July 18, 1992


24 bit version

Taper: koondog
Gear: Sony WMD3
Transferred & mastered by }{eywood
Lineage: Sony UX90 cassettes (M) > JVC TD-W354 playback deck > Adobe Audition 1.5 (recording to .wav @ 24/96, speed correction, EQ, peak limiting, splits & fades) > Xrecode II (flac 8)

The peak limiting in the lineage does not affect the music in any way. It only clips the very loud explosions at the start and end. Otherwise these 5 momentary bombs drove the overall volume down to where it maxed out at -14 dB (that's really quiet). I used the peak limiter to scrunch down the explosions and float the music around a comfortable -3 dB.
