The VHS/DVD version was not exactly the same from the theatrical version:

The article says there were changes made for the Blu-ray version, but also for the VHS/DVD.
this helps

The Orriganal is The VHS version.
No. Unless there were multiple VHS versions. I remember my pan & scan VHS ending with the final wedding shot being changed to 16:9 letterbox. I’m not sure if the hand touching scene and the speeder chase were re-done for the VHS or for the DVD, my VCR doesn’t work for something like a decade and for “some reason” all VCR repair shops went out of business.
The DVD is the Same As the VHS Version.

The VHS version was not altered a bit from the theatrical release

The DVD is the Same As the VHS Version.
IMAX version was changed as the IMAX theaters at the time were only experimental. The film was cut down signiffigantly. “20 minutes where lost, in getting this transfer for IMAX.”The Blu Ray nearly gave me a heart attack when i saw The Scenes where rearranged.
“Anakin how many times do i have to tell you!”(Gets electricuted)
We see the speeder from a farther view leaving the Power Cuplinks.
"Stay Away From POWER CUPLINKS!"
Then we see the spedder from near the front coming close to the camera.The Bluray
"Anakin, How many times do i gave to tell you!" (gets electricuted)
"Stay Away From POWER CUPLINKS!"
followed by both angle shots of the SpeederTheres more…i’ll have to add that later.

This is not a blooper. This happen in the 95 “one Last Time” release
I dont know if this has been discussed but there appears to be some slight differences in the mono mix included on the MGM DVDs and the mono mix included on the pre 2001 releases. This is mostly noticeable during the Police station massacre but it occurs in a few other scenes. For the sake of discussion I’ll refer to the mix on the MGM DVD as ‘MGM mono’ and the other mix as ‘standard mono’. Heres what Ive noticed so far.
- ‘Clinking’ noise when the store clerk pulls the Uzi 9mm off the shelf. This is missing on the standard mono and the 5.1 mix.
- Some machine gun fire heard in the background is missing during the police station massacre. First is when Traxler locks Sarah in his office. In the standard mono after he says ‘stay here’, we hear ‘ratatatatat tatat’ (closes door). In the MGM mono, we hear ‘stay here’ ‘ratatatatat’ (closes door). No ‘tatat’. Second is after the power is cut and it cuts to the officer in the interrogation room peaking through the blinds of the window and then runs to the door. Machine gun fire in the background when he runs to the door is missing on the MGM mono.
- When the Terminator cuts the power in the Police station, the sound of the emergency lights coming on is much louder on the MGM mono.
- A bit hard to notice but it sounds like some noise is missing when Reese rams the officer into the door of the interrogation room before knocking him out. The standard mono and 5.1 sound mostly identical in this instance.
- ‘Clinking’ noise when it cuts to Sarah crawling underneath Traxler’s desk to hide is present on MGM mono.
- On the standard mono, the sound of the Terminators motorcycle cuts in about a second before the fadeout to Reese and Sarah’s love scene cuts to the Terminator on the bike. On both the MGM mono and the 5.1 mix, this doesnt happen and the fadeout to the love scene just cuts to the Terminator on the bike.
- After Sarah goes ‘No! Kyle!’ but before she says ‘Come on!’ when he momentarily collapses after powering up the machines at Cyberdyne, on the MGM mono we can clearly hear a bang at the door (Terminator trying to get in). This is only faintly heard on the standard mono.
this is very useful
For a visual representation please check out the comparison video I shared a few posts ago.
I don’t believe the glass shattering into Cyberdyne was changed.where the sound effets for the machines in cyberdyne changed too?
Some of them. The compactor is different. You mentioned this mix you’re making combines the mono and surround mix. May I ask how you intend to do this if you don’t have the mono sounds to use?? Me clarifying what was changed and what wasn’t isnt really gonna help.
i use youtube videos. this is my very first film im editing. i dont wish to bother you but some of the videos of the mono sounds are not on youtube, i do not own the mono DVD but i do own the VHS from the 80’s. im not a professional. i hope im not getting you upset.
Perhaps this guy could help.
You can’t find this or you can’t find the mono? If it’s just the mono, PM me.
the mono
This guy can help people looking for the mono mix.
thank you. i neded the sound effects for the ending scene where kyle and sarah are being chased by the terminator
(IN THE FACTORY)
the compressor that crushed the terminator and the explotion sound effect used when kyle blows the terminator to hell with the pipe bomb

My best advice is get any US Region 1 NTSC DVD release. You could probably get one on Amazon for like $10. Doesn’t matter which version or which cover it has. The mono will be there. I don’t have an audio file of the mono for you to use so telling you what’s changed isn’t gonna help if you wish to use the sound effects in your mix.
ill just have to use a VHS recording.

No not at all. Like I said I’ll help with what I can.
then i need the explotion sound effect when the temrinator is blown to hell by the pipe bomb.

The mono is available on the Region 1 DVDs. If not try messaging the original poster of this thread to see if he still has the synced Laserdisc track. If that doesn’t work and you have a MySpleen account there’s already an .mkv of the Blu-ray synced to the LD track over there. Also you mentioned a few posts back that you’re making your own mono mix. If you’re making a mono mix using the mono sound effects how is that gonna work?? Is this a mono mix of the mono mix or a mono mix with the effects from the surround mix?? Elements of both?? Again just asking out of curiosity and like I said I’ll provide whatever tips I can.
it is a mix of both.
I don’t have to. They did.
It just sounds very modern
Pretty much all the new sound effects added to the Terminator surround mix sound very modern and IMO very out of place in a 1980s film. Even ‘80s films with good surround mixes used sound effects that were of their times. Not so much with the Terminator remix.
So afte the pipebomb explotion after kyle places it on the terminators ribs was not changed?
The Endoskeleton exploding from the pipebomb was changed. Could you please elaborate more on what you are trying to attempt here?? Are you more interested in the mono sound effects or the remix?? Do you not have the mono on a DVD to compare?? Not trying to be rude, just a little lost but I’ll help if I can.
listen im a young sound editior, i want to make the most acurate sounding temrinator since it was released in1984

I don’t believe that sound was changed when the movie was remixed.
can you check and see if the explotion sound effect was changed when the pipe bomb blows the terminator to hell
Exactly what about the sounds so you wanna know??
i also want to know the sounds used during the end where the terminator is chasing them in the factory. like the glass sound effect when Sarah breaks the window to the factory
Exactly what about the sounds so you wanna know??
was it the sounds used in the Police Station massecre
Yes the gun does make the same sounds in the motel scene as it did in the police station massacre.
Exactly what about the sounds so you wanna know??
im sorry if you dont understand me.
No worries.
