  * A General Guide To Dolby Surround Audio Discs *

In line with a significant stage of digital audio research and development by this company Moidart Music is proud to announce the forthcoming release of the first title in a new series of re-issued albums by legendary Scottish folk music duo The Corries, generically entitled 'Corries Classics'.
The series will contain official albums of original recordings by The Corries digitally remastered to offer superb stereo reproduction and Dolby Surround. We believe these albums to be the first Scottish traditional music albums to be presented in surround sound and to comply therefore with the worldwide broadcasting standards of the digital age.

Music compact discs mastered using the creative technology of Dolby Surround play in stereo reproduction in all domestic and in-car CD players. When played as audio CDs in a home cinema system these discs offer the listener the choice of stereo reproduction or Dolby Surround. This innovation raises the enjoyment of music to a previously unheard level of clarity and depth - placing the listener centrally amid the music.
