Don't use Dolby loops to adjust your SRD. They will never give you as good of an alignment as you can get by using actual printed film.

One semi-decent way of approximating proper tone level is to force-switch a reasonably loud loop of film between SR and SRD and verify the level does not change. (This isn't perfect, but I've found it is frequently more accurate than using the Dolby tone loops.)

No Buzz Track....you can use the DTS time code track in a pinch to refrence your adjustment. Of course you want to adjust it so that you don't hear it at all. Then as far as analog goes you are in the ball park so to say. SRD can be set up well enough with any known good release print!!

I suppose that we Film-Techers could have Michael Shaffer
breeze through Venezula on his way back home and drop some buzzy tracks off to you, or better yet you come here and pick up some buzzy tracks. We stock it in what ever length you need. Don't you guys use VISA or Mastercard down there? Currency is automatically converted if you use your credit card. If you said no, there's no VISA, or Mastercards down there I wouldn't believe you....nowayman! I shipped a quart of film guard to Brazil a couple of years ago and it arrived fine. That guy paid with VISA.
So, who owns the theatres you guys work for.....don't they care about anything, or is it all that badly corrupt down there?
That Elvis guy is obviously having problems [eyes] ...? He needs a few [beer]

Venezuela has major currency conversion problems due to the recent civil unrest and their bank / credit card interest rate is among the world's highest. The company they work for is well stocked....they are a little overworked due to a very small but dedicated technical staff....sound familiar?

Before all I want to apologize for all the misunderstood. There's no way that angel understand the readers' problem, I've spoken to him at least five times and however he doesn't understand.
