----- Dolby HX is a system of automatically reducing the bias amplitude when
there is above a certain high frequency signal content - this to avoid
saturating the tape. It is quite single-pass and does not influence the
signal as such. The only process that I can imagine would be slightly sorry
(but I have not yet thought this through completely) is the Plangent
Processes (TM) procedure
----- Dolby HX was developed by Bang & Olufsen of Denmark and was/is licensed
to Dolby Labs.
