This week's show was recorded from an analog feed from KFAI's Optimod processor. It's basically the signal sent to our FM transmitter. Compared with the usual recording technique, this week's show has some extra EQ and compression/limiting to make the talk breaks sound BIG. Plus, the whole show is in mono. I don't think this will be a permanent setup at KFAI.
