This completes a perfect trilogy.\r\n\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\r\nThe 2xHD Fusion Mastering System: In the constant evolution of its proprietary mastering process, 2xHD has progressed to a new phase called 2xHD FUSION, integrating the finest analog, with state-of-the-art digital technology.\r\n\r\nThe mastering chain consists of a selection of high-end vacuum tube equipment. For the recordings on this album, the original ¼” 15 ips NagraMaster curve, NAB or CCIR master tapes were played on a Nagra-T tape recorder, modified with high-end tube playback electronics, wired with OCC silver cable from the playback head direct to a Nick Doshi tube head preamplifier. The Nagra T, with its four direct drive motors, two pinch rollers and a tape tension head, has one of the best transports ever made. A custom-built carbon fiber head block and a head damping electronic system permit 2xHD FUSION to obtain a better resolution and 3D imaging.\r\n\r\nThe resulting signal is then transferred into high resolution formats by recording it in DXD using a custom 2xHD Technologies A to D converter. All analog and digital cables that are used are-state-of-the-art Siltech. The 2xHD FUSION mastering system is powered by a super capacitor power supply, using a new technology that lowers the digital noise found in the lowest level of the spectrum. A vacuum tube NAGRA HD DAC X is used as a reference digital playback converter to A and B with the original analog master tape, permitting the fusion of the warmth of analog with the refinement of digital.\r\n\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaco Pastorius\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eBen Webster\r\nBrian Torff\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eBucky Pizzarelli\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrédéric Alarie\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eDidier Dumontier\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eMarie Saintonge\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Len\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Geary\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eJosée Aidans\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eJune In The Fields\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eRachel Laurin\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Attention - the audio samples below are from the digital version of this album.
