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.

Burning Instructions

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

View NotesDC offset was corrected on the FOB.

AUD source disc 2 to Disc 3 was not seamless.  A reverse fade and
then removal of overlapping material.

The following songs patched from Cassette Master SBD: Tuning, Aiko,
Jack Straw, West L.A. Fadeaway, Let Phil Sing, Memphis Blues, Let
Mickey Sing and Row Jimmy.  The cassette SBD used for the patch
material is very good and the source change is hard to detect.

d1t07 "Let Mickey Sing Chant" is just from the AUD source.  This
was crossfaded, EQ'ed with some volume adjustments to blend better.
