Hi Dave:
I recall that someone put up sound samples and the software "decode" was rife with artifacts and not
ready for primetime. Best solution -- get a working Dolby decoder or get someone with a working
Dolby decoder to transfer the tape.
I also recall a bunch of discussion about why a Dolby emulator would be very difficult, because you
need to align a Dolby-encoded tape and then set Dolby levels, preferably with the Dolby tones. My
experience is, there's a little bit of leeway, but you very quickly get into a screwy top end if
things aren't close to aligned. This means azimuth and Dolby level.
