On the French horns, it sounds to me like there is a dropout problem on three notes. I'm trying to find out if I caused it, or if it's something on the other end. If so, maybe it can be fixed so that others don't have a similar problem.
There are no dropouts on the masters and for three dropouts to occur on the French Horn at 42 foot distance from each other during the recording process is an amazing coincidence. It would have to be the most precise bit of bad luck in the history of bad luck. We've issued several sets of this wonderful sound and it has only ever met with lust filled passion for Mr Blechta.
On the Russian choir note, there's definitely something strange going on there, just with the one note. Others can judge for themselves. I'm just trying to help here
We have just listened to this and all three of us agree that it sounds perfectly fine. It is not looped, it just is. Checkout the waveform and you'll see it isn't.
As a conclusion, there are no fixes that need to be done apart from note 25 of the French Horn which is now cured.
Byeeee,
