From memory, mono mix has:
- Different alarm klaxons on Tantive IV
- Different dubbing for Aunt Beru (either a different actor or different takes)
- Cantina music can be heard through the door before Luke and Ben enter
- Searching troopers say “This one’s secure” instead of “Door’s locked” when Artoo and Threepio are hiding
- Different sound effects when the Falcon is in Alderaan’s asteroid field
- Different sound effects for the DS tractor beam
- Threepio’s tractor beam line added
- “Close the blast doors” added
- Different echo effects in the chasm scene
- Different radio effects for X-Wing pilots
- “Blast it, Wedge, where are you” instead of “Biggs” during the Battle of Yavin
I know I’m missing a bunch, though.
Thanks for the info Ash.
I hate to be the kind of person who requests someone else do work, but I feel like there really should be a comprehensive list of all the audio changes somewhere here (if we’re not going to do it, who will?). I’d take it upon myself but I barely know most of the different versions (let alone the changes) and don’t have most of them on hand. Perhaps it could be a collaborative project but it’s definitely something the community here should consider (I’d also argue the site should consider making a separate tab that just lists all the different versions of the film and all the different changes, pulling from 005 and other people’s work). This site is the primary advocate and resource for the OOT, but most of the info about it is hidden in the knowledge of those who post on the forums. I know we’ve given up on the petition here, but I feel the least we can do is be an educational source.
