Tech Notes
I used EAC in secure mode to extract all tracks at 100%
no reported errors. Cool Edit Pro 2.0 was used to align &
synch both sources. CEP2.0 used to adjust the volume
for the center and LFE channels. Surcode CD Pro DTS was
used to encode to DTS. -3db was NOT applied to the rear
channels. Both of the sources for the front and rear
channels were left at their original levels.

Notes
Known Flaws:
1.2 second digital error at approx. 10:35 to 10:37 in Scarlet
was patched using my 10 year old DAT copy that was labeled:
SBD: Master Reel > DAT The result is smooth and most likely
undetectable.
Crowd cheer/tuning between Estimated and St. Stephen was missing
on the AUD source. I used a "crowd cheer/tuning" from another
portion of the same Aud recording. I also shortened the overall
length by a minute. No music is missing and it came out sounding
smooth and natural.
The first set was riddled with btwn song cuts and had several
cuts in songs on both the SBD and the AUD. It is possible to
make a DTS and a matrix mix for set one but the final result
will be very "choppy". Maybe someday but for now, enjoy this!
