I think that only the orchestra sessions were done at AR because
the recording room at her place is too small for big recordings.

In the past she has also used AR for the mastering stage (after
mixing). She doesn't have the equipment for doing production
mastering, especially the PQ coding for CD masters. The stuff
she does have - DAT and CD-R recorders - are only for personal
masters that she can listen to outside of her studio on a regular
hi-fi.
