Thank for pointing that out.
When I read it, I thought he meant he was simply remixing what was already there in the mix.
So, adywan...just to wet our appetite...wanna throw out an idea you've had for a specific scene? -...besides the cantina
Again, I know you're not really focused on that right now...any little idea you've had will do!
I'm stripping the soundtrack down to just the dialogue track, equalising the dialogue and then building it back up to a better 5.1 mix with new effects to give a better surround experience. I have managed to get hold of a 7 disk Hollywood Foley library and i'm in the process of making up a star wars effects library. I really don't like the mix on the DVDs. Too much emphasis on sound effects, music cues you can hardly hear or have disappeared completely, and an overpowering subwoofer (bloody bad idea to let ben burtt do the final mix).
Whoops! How did I miss this post?! Thanks for clarifing adywan! I think the way you're going about it is probably the best way to do it. Wow! I simply can't wait!
