This was the first Beatles "XDR" re-issue on 1st June 1987, the rest of the regular Beatles albums were all re-issued on 19th November 1987. "Past Masters" was released the following year, the double cassette delayed until 24th October 1988.

The final "inner groove" fades out, but the repeat is audible at least twelve times. Issued as part of a box set similar to the LP & CD sets, too. The set was issued in a wooden bread box (type) with a 64 page glossy book. The wooden box could be ordered as a separate item with the booklet.

It is a process designed to provide higher quality audio on pre-recorded cassettes by checking the sound quality at all stages of the tape duplication process. In this way, the dynamic range of audio recorded on an XDR-duplicated cassette can be up to 13 decibels greater. XDR (Expanded Dynamic Range) was originally developed by Capitol Records in LA in their R&D facility. As well as with EMI & Capitol Records, PolyGram and other labels also offered cassette releases duplicated with the XDR process. DOLBY B-type: A Dolby noise-reduction system, or Dolby NR, is one of a series of noise reduction systems developed by Dolby Laboratories for use in analog audio tape recording. The first was Dolby A, a professional broadband noise reduction system for recording studios in 1965, but the best-known is Dolby B (introduced in 1968) for the consumer market, which helped make high fidelity practical on cassette tapes, which used a relatively noisy tape size and speed. From the mid-1970s, Dolby B became standard on commercially pre-recorded music cassettes. |
