Wow, those work better than I expected!
It would be cool if we added some voice effect to the line, “We will be one” as if we’re hearing voices of the past Sith collectively speaking through him. Same for when he says, “as all the Sith live in me.” And maybe that could continue once he drains their energy and reforms.
✋ I’d be happy to volunteer for experimenting with this idea
If it can be a dead ringer for the effect in ROTS, that’d be an interesting way to telegraph some significance to it. I guess in important moments, and/or by choice, the collective Sith consciousness can have an augmented voice.
One unfortunate real-world concern I have as someone who has lots of experience trying to have something correspond seamlessly to the source audio, it is slightly risky to add that effect only to dialogue that wasn’t there originally, as you’d be doing about the opposite of what would normally be desirable. Maybe that’s not the important thing to be mindful of, but I can’t help it.
Let me post the stems of the audio as I’ve got it, and the stems of the two scenes as they were. (I had to add the center channel to the left and right channels for the Kylo scene because the two scenes were formatted differently. For most of that scene, Palpatine’s voice is clearer and louder in the left and right channels than the center. (Probably won’t be until tomorrow.)
