SMPTE, that's right.

Yeah.

So you don't have that much room to, you know, you better not erase that original one.

Yeah, that's right.

Yeah.

So now it's like you have unlimited tracks and

It's just kind of natural.

I mean, we just kind of got down to it.

And also, we never wanted to repeat ourselves.

As an example, after the success of Rebel Yell,

We loved all the dance remixes.

I remember we had Gary Langan from Art and Noise do one and we went, the next record could be a bit more of that stuff.

I think the idea were, let's utilize the technology as much as we can.

And I remember when we did Rebel Yell, because I loved on the Queen records, it said no synthesizers, because I loved Brian May.

So when we did Rebel Yell, I remember saying, you know, let me try and all the role that keyboards would take on that record, let me try it with the guitar.

If I fail at it, then bring those things in.

So I think that was part of the sound of that record, was experimenting.
