Eric,

Thank you for the amazing review. One thing that wasn't discussed was how
the output of the LT integrates with automatic post processing. While one
wouldn't want to post-process the master archive copy, I would suspect that
at least from the transient perspective, the very sharp transients might
work better with automatic de-clicking algorithms.

I'm also wondering what noise removal sounds like on the LT's self noise.
Does Cedar, Algorithmix, Diamond Cut, etc., work well or poorly on the LT
background noise.

Both of these processes might be used as part of a reissue project as
opposed to an access project.

Thanks again for a great review.

Cheers,

Richard
