Thanks all! Had a lot of fun making this.

Hello!

I really like the 1977 Kingdome cartoon ad so I remade it in Adobe illustrator so it would be easier for everyone to enjoy this fun piece of history

Sounds awesome!  I think what people are anticipating is the near-ish future is an AI program that will take everything you have been doing to the next level using other recordings as a reference.  Sort of an audio version of face mapping techniques used in film.  Example:  recreating a young Luke Sywalker in the final episode of Season 2 of the Mandalorian. 

The technology already exists, sort of -- see https://medium.com/the-research-nest/voice-cloning-using-deep-learning-166f1b8d8595 -- still in its infancy and largely calibrated for *spoken* audio. I'd reckon in about a year or two it'll be able to do what you're describing.

There's a huge emphasis on AI in audio restoration right now, with Izotope leading the pack. Spleeter, too, works extremely well, and in many cases outperforms Izotope's rebalancing tool. So I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the innovation comes from outside the industry giants. But there's definitely been a lot of chatter about developing machine learning tools to reconstruct degraded audio, particularly, e.g., where non-degraded audio from the same (or similar track) can be used as a reference.

IA Tech and De-Mixing are really interesting and will continue evolving the next years. Imagine taking a good quality soundboard and then split into multi-tracks, you can work into good official materials.

 

It increases the chance of more live albums like a compilation of best 1977 or 1980 tours. Or maybe more stuff like japan 71/72 or australia/new zealand 72. Ideally, one record for each tour (there are 30 tours LZ made in their career)

You'll enjoy seeing what is possible with AI technology for degraded Zeppelin boots. Stay tuned
