Padawan LearnerHi guys,
I can't seem to find one Dirty Harry DVD with the original english mono mix. Some mono mixes are included but of the foreign tracks only.
Anyone knows if there could be a LD audio rip out there? Cause I'm pretty sure this was the original mix on Laserdisc.
In fact this goes for all the films. They all seem to have been remixed in 5.1 with the original english mixes now gone.

Tauntaun herder-Damn Fool Idealistic CrusaderI thought along similar lines. After checking, The US widescreen LD is not mono. Only the Pan and Scan LD has analog mono.
Seems another to add to the list of missing mono tracks.

Padawan LearnerIs the US widescreen LD stereo, or DS? If it is, that is another of those lost mixes. The DVD and Blu 5.1 misses some music elements in some parts like when Scorpio is on the roof over the church in the park.

Tauntaun herder-Damn Fool Idealistic CrusaderI nearly bought it once, but the lddb lists it as a Prologic encoded matrixed stereo track. I've waited to see the film in it's entirety because I wanted to find the mono track. Nothing other than early LD, VHS or Beta seems to have mono.

Jedi KnightThis is not like how they redid Fistful of Dollars is it? I hated the new 5.1 mix it was crap. The only time i ever got to hear the real mix was on some fan edit or something that recobbled the original Italian cut and mono mix of that cut in Italian as well as English.

There's got to be a widescreen LD with the original mono track on it out there - I used to have a taped version of it.

Laserdisc MasterI have those two titles on LD:
The first has a Stereo Dolby Surround encoded and Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtracks, AND a mono soundtrack onto an analog channel... maybe this one could be the "lost" mono track, or simply a downmix from the DS or DD one?
