Sorry--that's the best wordplay I could manage on a moment's notice. Here are the two Earl Fuller zips I featured in the post before last. Unknown to me, the previous files contained the RIAA (LP) curve--I thought my saved template contained the inverse RIAA. Not.
This time, I took the extra step of choosing my software's acoustical preset for the Victor label, and then activating the equalization page template I'd designed. Complicated, but I'm guessing I can save much trouble by using the VS "Copy of..." function. As in, after altering the Victor acoustical preset, simply save it as a copy. This would make more sense if I had the relevant program pages up and I were doing a YouTube tutorial. And I've always wanted to type "if I had the relevant program pages up."
These sound a lot better. I've also updated the links on the original post. Enjoy the fresher, crisper Earl Fuller! And how often will I have the opportunity to type that?

It's like I'm there in the room with these Fuller brush men! :)
Lee, thank you for the experienced revisit of these recordings, and all the great info in the original post. With well, well over a century of superb recordings, fine software, patience, and a lot of unplanned time on our hands (plus a good browser), there's just no such thing as downtime anymore. And that's fine!
Ernie,
Thanks! I hope you didn't brush them off? (Cha-dunk, crash!)
Aging Child,
And I just now found your comment in my Blogger section. Sometimes Blogger fails to send a comment notification. Thanks for the kind words! I have some more shellac almost ready to post.
