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.

Taper Notes:

View Notes*Note: Several years ago Steve Leeds posted a SHN version to LMA from another set of discs that came from the same DATs Mark Lynn made from my masters. His seed included a patch source to bridge the tape flips. I made transfers to CDR off the DATs in real time sometime in 2001. This fresh version was a direct import into Wavelab as a single file per disc that was re-tracked with CDwave, with no other processing or edits performed. Considering the age of the DATs and the potential for unexpected digital tape dropouts, I decided to use the original CDRs I made when the DATs were brand new. If interested, you can find Steve's version here:
