Hey, y'all!
As promised, for those interested in listening to the October Sirius XM Broadcast (recorded at the "extreme" quality setting) of Dave performing solo, I've uploaded the files that were broadcast over the weekend. I did some really light and tasteful mastering, which I'll explain in the next paragraph. It's almost all music; I've carefully cut and created crossfades so that the set flows nicely from song to song to song. The only Davespeak left in is the bit he said about Roi before One Sweet World because I thought it was beautiful and it sets up the performance in such a great way with that short bit of talking included.
(This is the paragraph where I'll explain what I did for the mastering. If you want to read what I did because you're curious or an audio geek like me, awesome! If you just want to go straight to the files at this point, I won't be offended at all, lol.) I applied just a little bit of dynamic EQ to even out the frequencies, tamed the "s", "sh", and "t" sounds with a little de-essing, brought some clarity to both the guitars/piano and Dave's voice, created a little bit of a stereo spread to open up the sound, added just the tiniest hint of light compression to glue it all together, and applied a splash of reverb to compliment what was already there and to help fill out the room sound a bit. (Note: It looks like Dave was already running through a compressor on his end, or perhaps Sirius did their own compression, but it definitely wasn't brickwalled or anything, so that's good - dynamics are still very much in tact and I did zero "slamming" - I simply brought the loudest point up to -0.1. so it wouldn't be too quiet.)

(There are two folders - one in WAV format as that's how I recorded it, and one in MP3 format for those wanting to listen on mobile. I also saved the band's Instagram post about the show and used that as the artwork for the MP3 files, but feel free to use your own, of course.)
Note: I thought this was an excellent performance from Dave and it already sounded really nice, so I wanted to do a little remaster passion project like I did with the July broadcast, as well, for the community. I hope whoever wanted to hear this gets enjoyment from it!
