Improved visual quality via AI enhancement, and improved audio with the original recoding.
The file is based on the available YTS version. I enhanced the visual quality using Topaz Video AI, mostly in order to remove the compression noise there present, and sharp a little bit the image. I decided to keep it in 1080p, since the visual gain by moving to the enhanced 4K version was rather neglectable in this case, and that would have implied a x3 increase in the size, so I stepped up and then back down.
As for the audio, I replaced most of the show with the album audio (which is of better quality than the embedded in the YTS version) that came out at the same event, so both tracks coincide at most moments. At certain specific times, I had to keep the original track, although I normalize both tracks, so it is seamless. I was tempted to compress the waveband too, in order to have a… louder average sound, but I decided against since, this “bandwidth” with peaks and valleys, I understand is by design, since it’s a musical theater piece and it’s targeted to a robust quality audio setup, with the capacity to better reproduce this… richness.

This is a self-funded, self-managed endeavor that starts out as a natural response to the limited quality of certain not so popular content. Like you, I've been a torrent user for years, and just today it happens I have something of relative value to offer the community. I have very limited storage and I won't be able to seed uninterruptedly, so more than ever, considering the niche aspect of many of the tiles I might bring, please, SEED.
In the same frequency, comments are always welcomed! :)
