  1. There are thousands of recordings made entirely on 16 bit digital from start to finish but if they were mixed to an analog format then the digital multi-track source is much less of an issue. In addition the 48 k multis were made from all the original analog tapes not the multi-generation dubs that were required in the making of the original album which then had to again be mixed to yet another generation of tape. As a result the final stereo mix is two to four generations closer to the original multi-tracks than the mono , and of course it was mixed analog and printed to 1/4" 15 ips dolby SR. Frankly all this talk about the limitations of the source tapes is just that , talk. Personally I think the MOFI mastering of the stereo mix is the best I have ever heard, but it is up to the listener to decide, and there is no simple answer based on what the source was for the mix since there are many other factors . And as the technology gets better I wouldn't be surprised to hear the mix sound even better
  2. This release was not, I repeat not upsampled from a CD. It was a 192k/ 24 bit conversion of my original analog mixes done on 1/4" 15 ips dolby SR. Mark Linett
  3. Wanted to correct the above post. The HD tracks 192/ 24 bit version was not up sampled from 96 k. It is an analog xfr at 192/ 24. Mark Linett
