Notes on the Source Material
SBD (shnID = 75772)
This is another strange 1991 SBD. Let me explain. Quite a few
digital SBD's for the 1991 year are in circulation. I am sure
some of you have noticed a sorta strange sound quality to them.
What makes them sound they way they do is unknown to me. I'd
call them too digital. They tip-toe along the edge of blurry.
If I had to guess I would think a portable DAT deck was being fed
an analog signal into the line in. And although the levels were
set appropriately the deck was overloaded by 'too hot' a feed
from the SBD.
AUD1 (shnID = 96398)
Nice and well balanced FOB. This upfront FOB grabs quite a bit
of the sound but not as much atmosphere as you'd like for making
a matrix mix. However, this does help the sterile, straight SBD
out quite a bit. While it doesn't completely fix the strange
"digitally" sound of the SBD it does help quite a bit.
AUD2 (shnID = 98392)
Another great sounding AUD. I love it when multiple source can be
used to make a 5.1 and a stereo matrix. This doubles the options
for the multichannel mixdown and also allows for more flexibility
in the 5.1. Not just the standard SBD front and AUD in the rear.
This also allows me to do high rez mixdown for each of the 6
channels as well as a high rez stereo mixdown of all 3 sources.

Tech Notes
FLAC/SHNs were decoded to wave. Wavmerge was used to reassemble
the tracks back to 1 long wave. CEP2.0 was used to align &
synch both of the sources. SF8.0 was used for the EQ setting
for the CTR and LFE channels. SF8.0was used to perform the hard
limiting on the LFE channel. Surcode CD Pro DTS was used to
encode to DTS. This incorporates 6 channels of DTS encoded
16/44 wave files.
