**Description**
The video is from VCB-Studio. They applied debanding and slight AA, plus adaptive denoising and texture sharpening. Both the remastered 5.1 and original 2.0 audio are from AK-Submarines, but I resampled them from 24bit to 16bit with soxr using low shibata dithering. This cut the audio file size in half, saving around 400MB per episode. The main subs are the improved /ak/ Submarines subs from 2019. Also included are Hiryuu, Commie (Übermensch), and Commie (No fun allowed) subs. I directly copied the chapters from AK-Submarines so these should work with their optional ordered chapter supercut files. This is a larger audio version of my [Opus release](https://nyaa.iss.one/view/1337033).

**Tech Note**
For those questioning the audio: increasing or decreasing the bit depth does not effect fidelity, it only effects the dynamic range by raising or lowering the noise floor. At 16 bit with no dithering it produces a 96db range and a noise floor that is already lower than what is audible. With shaped dithering, like what I applied, it increases the range in the audible frequencies to around 120db. For reference, that's the loudness of a chainsaw. I highly doubt anyone is going to be listening that loud. 24bit non-dithered audio has a range of 144db, loud enough to immediately cause permanent hearing loss. That's putting aside the fact that the highest end hardware can only output at around a 120db (20bit) range due to the limitations of integrated circuit designs.
TL;DR 24bit audio is pure bloat.
