I always get excited when you finish one of these projects, ABC.

Please send me a PM.

Good stuff.

Hi ABC,

I'm new here, and I always loved the Empire Strikes Back (it's a pity that the RCA version of the set had a not so good master). I would love to hear your remastered version... Could you please tell me how I can obtain the files?

Thank you!

1) i'm very interrested by the project

    i have the set 2,...do you know when the set 1 and 3 will be online

2) do you know if similar projects exist for episodes IV and VI ? (and I, II, III)

thanks

P.S. sorry for my langage, i'm french

anyone could post me a little pm with a link for set 2 and 3 ?

thx a lot

Hi ABC,

First of all i want to give you all the credits of this great achivement. What a work this must have been, WOW!

I would really like to have this masterpiece, would you please send me the link(s).

I have tried to pm you but that was not possible.

best regards,

Crunchy

ABC is not there anymore (or just comes and goes). However there will be hopefully some dudes around still preserving the links and there may be always some nice guys watching, so don't hesitate to use that thread for both requests & feedbacks. ;)

Check your pm's.

I have received the links. Thanks!

Any way that someone could PM me the links as well?

Yeah. My only grip is that ABC was good to speak about what he's done. Leguman doesn't even touch an equalizer, believe it or not... Each one/time his own task.

But I see what you did here ;)

... This will fix the transparency issue.

By the way, there's no transparancy issue as far as I'm not going to post in this thread anymore. Just someone replied to my request last week about a link of mine I lost and I thought it was worth mentionning above that indeed, some nice people still reply to requests although this thread "looks" dead.

Why won't I post in this thread anymore ? Let me quote this discussion with Tallguy:

Tallguy said:

ABC, I'm not sure I'm following why you left and now have a different username, but what does this mean for the status of The Empire Strikes Back Audiophile Edition?

...

I replied:

Looks like enthusiasm about this work on the Empire score have totally fell, perhaps because the 30th anniversary is passed, perhaps because one more version was too much for followers.

I adverted I would move on since the begining of the topic, after that I adverted I'd take pm's for two weeks and move on, and that's what I did.

I always acted relying on people's judgement around here: is this work worth ? Then let's make it turn (requests/pm's). I've made it, I've uploaded it, then I consider it's no more up to me to maintain the thread(s). Looks like it has never been obvious for no one, and I'm afraid many may take such an attitude for despise or such. If it's the case I'm sorry, they just don't know how much it costed me to fulfil this work, speaking only about my cheap bad functioning equipment (things I wouldn't have been confronted to for a private only purpose).

And I've said it since the beginning: I was just passing through with these sound works. The best thing I'm glad about is D_J bring it to your knowledge through the bonus DVD we made together ! :) That's the best of it.

... Right now I just registered to send my contact to D_J.

To be "transparent" further, just letting people know I've precisely registered again this time in reply to a call, here.

I wonder if you're trying to point me out like a twisted user Moth3r, as it's the second time in a week you've been looking like doing so. I do hope things are clear between you and I now, and toward any one reading here.

Thanks for your comprehension.

Thanks again to all the people who supported this project. ;) I'll be reading as a visitor now if there's a chance to see new feedbacks from time to time.

ABC/whoever you are now,

Just want to say thanks for all the hard work. It sounds great. Every release is better than the last.

Is there any chance of Gerhardt remastered concert suites from your Film Edit set resurfacing? Would be interesting to hear.

oh, I'm a man. Not an avatar, not a machine, just a man.

Thanks. Always a pleasure to read from people able to weight the improvement from a step to another. :)

The only chance would be that someone pm you one of these past works (the "Optimum Editions" v2 & v3 had some of these tracks too). I haven't kept any of those for myself, even on physical CDs.

I'll sell my Gerhart CD version ASAP besides cause if this 1980 recording is indeed great, both the performance and the mastering are a torture to me now.

After going thru all the pages of both this thread and the "audiophile" thread, let me just start by saying to ABC : Thank You!

Its people like you and Adywan that have kept the fire around a certain film franchise burning while the people who are in charge seem to keep wanting to just pour water on it. 

I've been a lurker here on and off for a few years. I've run across many threads of people with passion for a certain project, (i'm still awaiting a certain fan edit of Ep III).  It reminds me of a paraphrase of something GL said some time in the past. Something along the lines of he was making Star Wars because it was the kind of movie he wanted to see, and if it did well then more people would make films like it so He could enjoy those films. 

As can be witnessed with the fan edit explosion, one person's passion can very easily fuel another's. 

So for all of us that just mainly sit on the sidelines, I'm offering my thanks. Your hard work is appreciated & applauded. 

Would I like to be able to listen to this outstanding project?

Take it from a kid on vacation in Houston the summer of 1980 that pleaded with his parents to take him to see Empire, waiting in line to get the far right seats on the front row. I still remember what the sky looked like that evening walking out of the theater....looked like Bespin.

That's a yes, if some one is feeling generous.
