From what all was said it seems that Was was working on mixes for the extra tracks. There was concern, rightfully so, that he would ruin the original sound of the recordings, making it sound more modern than what they would have sounded like then.
I'm quite sure he could ruin the sound if he really wanted to but I don't think that's his goal. And I'm sure it would end up sounding more like the time because of the equipment involved. OK so they uploaded it to Pro Tools without a doubt - it's still analog to digital. There's no making the drums sound any better because they're still only on 2 tracks. And it's all on TAPE! Which, no matter what anyone tells you, is still and always will be the best way to record music period.
The only thing that might end up different is if Was mixed Mick's voice higher.
But as far as I can recall nothing was ever said officially about what he was actually doing with the extra tracks other than he was "working" on them.

Thanks! I knew no details -- just knew something was happening, and remember when Courtney Love tweeting about being with Don Was in the studio, gushing about hearing Keith's isolated riffs.

It takes time to wipe all Bills bass lines and re do them.
