Tech Notes
SHNs were 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 center, LFE and front channels. Surcode CD Pro
DTS was used to encode to DTS. -3db was NOT applied to the
rear channels, they were left at their original levels.

Notes
The levels were very low on the SBD source. I increased
set 1 by 3.5db and set 2 by 7.5db.
D1t4 'BIODTL' a 1 second AUD patch was made at approx 2.22
to cover a cut, dropout or skip in the SBD. Source change
from SBD to AUD is obvious to the listener.
D1t5 'Roses' a 1 second AUD patch was made at approx 0.22
to cover a cut, dropout or skip in the SBD. The result was
smooth and most likely unnoticeable.
D1 The SBD source was missing approx 2.38 of crowd cheer
after 'Roses'. Most likely where the cassette flip was.
The AUD source was trimmed to match. The result was smooth
and most likely unnoticeable.
D2 and D3 can be assembled seamlessly on longer media.
NOTE: Burning options. You can also burn this as 2 CDs by
putting D2T1 & D2T2 (Scarlet > Fire) on the end of the first
CD. Obviously I set this up for 3 discs but in the end I
ended up burning as a 2 disc myself. The artwork was setup
to accomidate both options.
D2 Both the SBD and the AUD sources had breaks bwtn the D2
and D3 change. The SBD source also had a cassette flip break.
Fortunately the breaks were at different spots. I patched
the missing SBD portions, approx 4 and 3 seconds, with the
AUD. I patched the missing AUD portion, approx 6 seconds, with
the SBD. The result was smooth and most likely unnoticeable.
The SBD source faded out after the last song of set 2. It
restarts at the very first notes of the encore. I adjusted
the AUD source accordingly to match. I tried to make this
as smooth as possible and it came out okay.
I ran the center channel lower than usual (-5db) for this
DTS 5.1 mix.
This Scarlet > Fire is absolutely insane.
Final/last "Believe It Or Not" 10-21-1988 (89 shows)

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.
