The restorer's note
Tekura put the masking model on the front panel so you could watch compression decide what to discard. Push it and the artifacts arrive on schedule — pre-echo, dulled highs — because they are physics, not seasoning. Restored from a revision-C unit.
Restored 2024 from 1994 hardware.
