SHNs were decoded to wave and SF 8.0 was used to reassemble
the tracks back to 1 long wave.  CEP2.0 was used to align &
synch both sources.  Soundforge 8.0 was used to remove many
pops that ran throughout the SBD source.  CEP2.0 used to
adjust the volume for the center, LFE and surround channels.
Surcode CD Pro DTS was used to encode to DTS.

Notes

Incomplete show.

Version #4 - SBD+AUD DTS-Audio-CD 5.1 Surround Sound

The AUD recording punches at zero consistently throughout the
recording.  Or it did and then someone dropped the levels by
1 or 2db.  This recording tiptoes along the edge of distortion
but I don\'t think it really becomes a problem.  However, the
extreme levels (or post production hard limiting) on this
recording has really reduced the dynamic range.  On the plus
side it does have a really \"in-your-face\" sound quality.

There were between song edits after Yamar, Antelope and
Waste on the SBD source.  The AUD recording was trimmed to
match and a variety of edits (fades, crossfades and level
adjustments) were performed to make this transitions as
smooth as possible.  They were a bit too quick to make this
completely inaudible.

There were several pops throughout the SBD recording.  The
kind that may have slipped by unnoticed unless you were knee
deep into the recoding on an editing program like I was.  I
did my best to locate and remove most or all of these.

SBD source was a bit low, I raised the levels approx +2db.

AUD source was a bit high, I lowered the levels approx -1.5db.
In my experience consistently louder levels in the rear
channels is an undesirable effect.

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 rise the volume gradually. NEVER
listen to a DTS-Audio-CD through the analogue audio outputs
of your CD/DVD player.

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