<div>II. As for Bob O's comment against the practice of doing elevated
dolby level, I agree there was a standard for 185, but as people
started to use elevated levels as high as 6 dB over 185, I was
seriously concerned about running out of headroom in the Dolby
gear if standard dolby level was used, and so as a practice, I see
less harm in using an elevated dolby level than to overload the
Dolby processor with too hot audio. I always recorded dolby tone
as well as 1 kHz @ VU. The Dolby 361 meters, as Richard
mentioned, were notoriously inaccurate, I would put a sharpie mark
on the real dolby level on the meter, for what it was worth. There
was a Dolby tester that could be used for accuracy of the dolby
tone or I believe a test point that could be checked. </div>
