Filter 3 (pure Bezier interpolator)
This process delivers a perfect reconstruction of the
original music signal. It exhibits no pre- or post-echoes of
any kind, and does not add coloration or timing errors to
the original signal. In sonic terms this method offers an
impressive blend of naturalness, good dynamics and
accuracy.

Filter 4 ( Bezier interpolator plus Noise-Shaping )
In this variant what is known as „noise-shaping“ is added
after the ideal Bezier algorithm. This supplementary
stage further reduces the basic hiss in the audible range.
With certain types of material (e. g. classical music with
a very wide dynamic range) this can be an additional
advantage, but does result in a slight loss in precision
compared with the „pure“ Bezier process. This is our
preferred process due to its advantages in respect of
sound, and is the basic (default) setting of the
CD .
