I’ve seen this happen a bunch. Didn’t Lanois record Dylan digitally then mix/master it through an analogue console?

Apparently there are a few in the DSD realm that do it too. You can’t mix direct with DSD files so in fully digital chains they’re converted to PCM, mixed and then converted back. A few engineers who didn’t want to do that mixed the DSD recordings to tape and then when the mix was done on tape recorded it back to DSD.

Sure! That happens all the time, but typically you're sending those multitracks back into A>D conversion into Pro Tools. I suppose maybe they were going for the old school approach of printing a live mix to 1/4" tape? And then I guess they grabbed a 192 transfer of that 2 track mix off tape? Seems like a lot of back and forth, but hey, they made what might be the definitive guitar record of the 21st century, so whatever it takes!

It also didn’t include the sleeve but I was okay with that considering it was 1/3 the price of the cheapest copy on discogs!
