Legend
- TOC -- PRE flag appears in the disc Table of Contents. Most software only checks the TOC.
- Sub -- Pressing has the PRE flag in the track subcodes. This is what CD players use to detect pre-emphasis, but it generally requires special software to detect on a computer.
- Suspected Missing PE Flag -- Indicates that some people believe the audio on the pressing to be emphasized even though (presumably due to a mastering error) there are no PRE flags in the TOC or audio subcodes. This would result in an unusually "brittle" sounding high-end on all rips and CD players.

- ^ Gray matrix code text is reported to look like it was added after the CD was mastered. When only part of the matrix code was added post-mastering, post-mastered text is a stamper ID and all CDs with the NON-gray part of the text should have identical contents. (This distinction cannot be made on discs where ALL of the matrix code was added after the CD was mastered, which is the case on most early Japanese pressings.)
