[MacDV] OT - too much bass on audio

As I understand it, digital audio is not so forgiving about being 
overdriven as analog audio may have been.  I use Amadeus as my 
preferred digital audio tool.  The new version includes 3 different 
graphic equalizers that you might find useful, and you can use the 
program to analyze the sound you do have and try and improve on that.  
But if the music was overdriving the ability of the recorder to capture 
it then those samples will be clipped - and unrecoverable.  Perhaps ask 
your friend to allow you to sit in with the band at a practice and 
capture fresh audio to then sync with he footage shot at the club?  
That may provide the best and most polished solution and should be 
within the capabilities of FCP 3.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you...
