I did not install the drivers for the Sound Blaster, using it only to transfer this signal in a lossless, digital way. The signal was not "pure stereo" at all - it was the 5.1 signal. An earlier version of this article was confused, and I erroneously stated that the signal was "pure stereo" - this was a mistake I never caught on to. I've never had a true 5.1 system, but I played the 5.1 mixes and fed this signal into the Onkyo.

The Serial Copy Management System employed on MiniDisc prevents a further digital copy being made from any digital copy (by simply adding a "copy" bit to the first copy). The 5.1 mixes were brand new and no doubt contained individual instructions for all five channels and a low frequency effect (LFE) output. The otherside contained a DVD interface with the album presented in DVD Audio stereo and 5.1 surround. One side was the original record, remaster-compressed, and presented in the same manner as the old CD: 44kHz 16bit stereo. The Talking Heads remasters were presented in DualDisc format. So! What I set out to do was press into service my new Onkyo 105FX and utilize its unique ability to record digitally directly to LinearPCM, better known to you as CD quality. This page has been replaced by a new one. Many other details emerge, unheard on both my dusty old vinyl and '80s issue of the CD:- perhaps mastered from the same tape as the original vinyl mix, as was the practice in that decade. At last, you could hear the smallest handheld wooden percussion instruments - I'm sure their African names are recorded for posterity elsewhere - alongside eerily clear vocals. The clarity of the 5.1 mixes in particular was appealing.

The Talking Heads remasters, whilst sadly brickwalled to an extent (see: LOUDNESS WAR), were still well presented and restored. Being of the MiniDisc, I enjoy experimenting with new equipment, techniques and manipulation.
