Tech Notes

SHN/FLAC's decoded to wave and SF 6.0 was used to reassemble
the tracks back to 1 long wave.  CEP2.0 was used to align &
synch the SBD & AUD sources.  CEP2.0 used to adjust the volume
for the SBD, FOB, center and LFE channels.  Surcode CD Pro
DTS was used to encode to DTS.

Notes

In most situations I time correct the AUD or rear channel
source to match the speed to the SBD or front channel source.
In this situation the AUD was off DAT and the SBD was off a
cassette.  I decided to use the more time accurate source
(DAT>AUD) and time corrected the cassette SBD to match the
speed on the AUD.

The SBD was recorder rather low and uneven. I increased the
levels 4db on the left channel and 3db on the right.  The
levels on the FOB were very punchy without overload. I reduced
this by -2db. In my experience louder rear channels is an
undiserable effect.

SBD suffers from moderate distortion during PYITE, Ghost and
probably other spots.  As a commentary note, this is not one
of the best SBD recordings. Not bad, not great.  I would
give this B/B+ grade, for what that is worth.

02.294 missing on the SBD (cassette flip) btwn Maze and Dirt.
The FOB was trimmed 02.294 btwn 44:13.308 - 44:15.602 to
match.  The result is smooth and most likely undetectable.

D2T5 The cassette flip on set two was reported as having
overlapping material.  This was not the case.  The joining
together or splicing out the cassette flip did result in an
inaudiable splice but material was definately missing.  This
made for a bear of a project to synch to the FOB. Regardless,
the result is smooth and most likely undetectable.

D2T6 During the crowd cheer between the last song and the
encore you will hear commentary that "Mike Stanley is on the
stage". This is not referring to any special guest.  We ran
several FOB's this tour and the aspect of actually becoming a
human mic  stand night after night turned into the nickname
"Mike Stanley".

More On DTS

Today's audio standards are moving towards multi-channel
sound, like DTS and Dolby Digital. While the Audio-CD
standard (Red Book) hasn't changed to accommodate these
new sound formats, it is still possible to go around the
specification and to put a 5.1 surround recording on a
regular Audio-CD. To play a DTS-Audio-CD you must connect
your DVD/CD player via a digital cable (optical or coaxial)
to your DTS Dolby-Digital receiver. It is not 100% sure
that your receiver will recognize a DTS-Audio CD, so the
first time you're trying to playback a DTS-Audio-CD you
must do a test to determine if it can. Begin with the
volume very low, start the disc and raise the volume
gradually. NEVER listen to a DTS-Audio-CD through the
analog audio outputs of your CD/DVD player.

Burning Instructions
Burn them the absolute same way as you would burn any
normal Audio-CD from .shn files.
