Later English mixes were always made from the stereo/surround mixes which would explain its continued absence. Why they returned to the older mixes is another question, as time had obviously been taken to mix a stereo version which incorporated the later "mono mix" changes.Originally posted by: Vigo
Even the 5.1 mix from the 2004 SE keeps all the soundeffects from the mono mix, but the musical cue was removed.
Now that's unusual, I would have expected LFL to standardize the "official" mix for all but dialogue by now.It would be very interesting to gather further information about this, and what the reason is why we got additional music in our sound mix and why it wasn´t included in later english sound mixes.
