will fire up old Brenda (as soon as I put in a good supply of coal) and check out your claims. What notes are you speaking of specifically?
Rick,
After listening to the French horns again tonight, there seem to be three bad notes, but I'm pretty sure it's a tape related problem and nothing to do with your performance. The question is, where did the problem occur - the master tapes, the copy made for my set, or the installation of my set. Or, somewhere else? The notes are numbers 20, 22 & 25 on the French horns. I'll bet your set is fine.
The Russian choir on note #1 definitely sounds like a tape loop to KL and I.
I'm trying to load a page containing MP3s of all the sounds in question (along with examples of the "pops"). I'll let you know when they're out there.
