The restorer's note

Sixteen-bit that is almost, but not quite, clean — the faint patina a good DAT machine leaves on a master. This is a finishing tool; every parameter is meant to sit just below notice. Restored to reference spec, which in Tekura's world meant leaving well alone.

Restored 2025 from 1991 hardware.
