The making of the 5.1 surround sound SACD
..... Many hours were spent in the studio mixing and mastering tracks to
perfection. Little technical details were adjusted, corrected. Early
response to this new format (surround sound SACD) and the results of the
remixing and remastering have brought interesting and noteworthy comments from
fans.
"If
5.1 is used to its full potential, rather than just using the back channels for
ambiance, it can open up the recording from stereo in a way that stereo opens it
up from mono.
Glad to see attention being paid to 'I
Believe You', as I feel it is one of our stronger tracks and a perfect vehicle
for Karen."
