Ok, being a complete audiophile, I thought I'd measure the old mono Pepper against the new stereo version. Here's what I found... The mixes/waveforms don't line up. Each new mix ends seconds earlier then the old mono mix. The massive chord in "A Day In The Life" happens about NINE seconds sooner than in the old... #NumberNine So, this leads me to believe they used the Elastique Pro Algorithm, or something like it, to create faster/tighter songs, but keeping the same original key/pitch.
The Beatles always messed with tape speed, but now they are sneakier than ever!

Now they could take a song like Real Love, let John sing in natural voice, BUT still speed it up. With analogue you get helium sound.
