Those of you who have seen the "Jimmy's Dream" video (a documentary about the

high quality SBD source.

Golgi Apparatus, Slave to the Traffic Light

I would like to thank Morgan Bell for the FM Slave source. Without him, this seed wouldn't
have been possible. All editing and tracking was performed with WaveLab 3.0.

Editing: The FM Slave was passed through these following devices; DC Remover, and DeNoiser.
This was to remove most of the FM noise without disturbing the high-end freq's. The rest of
the show was tracked with WaveLab and had the following done; DC Remover. All tracks reside
on a sector boundary. This was throughly checked and rechecked numerous times before SHN
compression. Enjoy!

FINAL REMIX INFO:
Videos cut, pasted and synced to audio with Sonic Foundry Vegas Video 3.0.
(Video glitches and encoding errors were in the original VCD, sorry.)
MPEG video encoding by TMPGenc.
Mpeg audio encoding using the tooLAME mp2 encoder.
Mixed by Itay Chamiel, a.k.a. Phozz, 1/7/2003. email: itayc@hotmail.com

Those of you who may be itching about the mp3 in the audio lineage should note that
the audio format of VCD is "mp2", which is inferior to mp3. It is highly unlikely
that this video would have sounded any better had I converted the audio from a SHN.
