|  | | Santana - Supernatural | | | Digital editing and mixing by Elliot and Diana. Mastering by Leon Zervos | CNET review:
"... Supernatural was Santana's megaselling CD, but it sounds so much better on DVD-Audio. Too bad the CD's dynamic range was squashed flat in postproduction and mastering, but it's restored on this DVD-A. The percussion and Santana's guitar now sound incredibly alive and present." | | Click here for complete review |

|  | | Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin & Sammy Davis Jr. - The Rat Pack - Live At The Villa Venice | | | Digital editing and mixing by Elliot and Diana. Mastering by Jen Wyler | highfidelityreview.com:
"After the overwhelming success of Frank Sinatra’s Sinatra at the Sands DVD-Audio disc, Warner’s Reprise label has quickly followed up with a recording that showcases all the members of the legendary 1960’s Rat Pack. Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra are at their best in a 1962 fundraising cabaret performance captured at The Villa Venice nightclub, located in the outskirts of Chicago... The performances on The Rat Pack Live at The Villa Venice were recorded during the nights of November 26th to December 2nd, 1962, and are brought to us here by the same team as the aforementioned Sinatra DVD-Audio title, mixing engineers (for the surround and stereo versions) Elliot Mazer and Diana Reid Haig together with co-producer Robin Hurley." | | Click here for complete review |
|  | | Big Brother & the Holding Company - Cheap Thrills | | | Digital editing and mixing by Elliot and Diana. Mastering by Jen Wyler | CNET review:
"The swirling trails of guitar feedback that dance over your head in the 5.1 mix that come at the end of "Piece of My Heart" were edited out of previous editions, but they sound amazing here. Gut-wrenching blues push "Ball and Chain" to new heights on SACD, and Janis´s vocal chops burst through the din like never before. "Roadblock" is one of the new tracks that packs a serious wallop, thanks to Dave Getz´s thumping drum kit. The original Cheap Thrills LP was a true classic, but it was far from a great-sounding recording. The CD was no great shakes either, so it came as something of a shock to discover the SACD´s heightened resolution and masterful surround mix. Cheap Thrills was the first SACD to make us true believers in the sonic potential of the format." | | Click here for complete review |
|  | | The Who - Tommy | | | Elliot helped Pete conceptualize the 5.1 mix. | CNET review:
"... Townshend personally remixed his master tapes and created a dramatically enhanced version of Tommy. His 5.1 mix puts you in the center of the band, but we were more impressed with the way drummer Keith Moon´s sound finally comes into its own. The second disc of bonus tracks, most in 5.1 surround, is a special treat." | | Click here for complete review |

 | | Frank Sinatra - Sinatra At The Sands | | | Digital editing and mixing by Diana and Elliot. Mastering by Jen Wyler | CNET review:
"... This disc captures Ol´ Blue Eyes in his most natural environment, at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas. It´s 1966, and Sinatra is backed up by Count Basie and his Orchestra -- it can´t get any better than this. Additionally, the DVD-A brings back the atmosphere of the joint. On the quieter tunes such as "One for My Baby," you hear the clinking of glasses and the music filling the room." | | Click here for complete review |
|  | | Neil Young - Harvest | | | Elliot re-mixed the 5.1 version of Harvest at Neil´s studio, Redwood Digital. Denny Purcell mastered this just before his untimely death, and the disc is dedicated to him. | dvdanswers review:
