SHNs were decoded to wave and Audition 2.0 was used to reassemble
the tracks back to 1 long wave. Audition 2.0 was used to align &
synch the SBD & AUD sources.
- Aud and sbd were synced while working on a dts encoded cd, matrix and audio dvd
- Mixed by kevtobin@yahoo.com
- DVD authoring via DVDMaestro by Kevin Tobin.

Additional Notes:

Bertha is missing on the sbd source ... both the dts and matrix version of this song are a little bright but still very energetic. The static during Around and Around through US Blues is still present but the matrix cancelled it out a little.

The Robert Wagner audience was patched and corrected for speed - the updated version was released as shnid 81494.

As most of the patches to the sbd were during the dead space between songs, I will not be circulating the more complete sbd at this time.
