[ProAudio] HX Pro was :FeralA - Recordings released encoded with Dolby A

[Louis Judson]

Thanks Bill. This is great, music I know so well and I’ll find a copy and grok deeply… :-)

I am constantly impressed by the high level of discourse on this list! I feel like a novice as my path was different, but I learn so much from you all. 

Thanks to all of you.

I started at Capitol in 1981 and left in 1988. The signal-chain electronics we designed in my lab (which included HX-Pro) replaced the original electronics of the Gauss duplicators used world-wide by Capitol/EMI. Therefore, all cassettes released from the mid-eighties until Capitol stopped making them (a date I don't know) will use the XDR process.
