Charles, that's brilliant in and of itself. Apparently I didn't proofread my posting; should have put "making APPEAR to sound the best it can".
Nice one; and once again Randy Thom's "quote" comes back:
We in post sound are illusionists, not magicians.
I might just start quoting you now, Charles, with that one!

p.s. I never said filmmakers don't have the right to recut on unlock--I'm just saying there are ways of doing things that make it easier on all involved. And a lot of that stems from a good assistant.
