The Live in Berlin LP seems to be taken from a tape running very slow. Has anyone done any testing to work out how much it is off.

I use decent DJ decks and have just compared it with WTTB and think I need to speed it up by about 3.25%. Has anyone done anything more technical to get a more precise percentage?

Cheers

Yes, it does run slow, as does the EP that was on Spotify last year.

I used Sony Soundforge to correct the pitch by +0.8 semitones (or 1 semitone -20 cents).

I matched the official release to the bootleg and they line up perfectly but are from different sources as evidenced by audience noise during songs on the boot.

To me it seems like a huge coincidence that two different recordings would run perfectly in sync and both be the incorrect speed.

The bootleg tape is available here, i'd suggest listening to that first before concluding that the official release runs slow.
