Just finished the synch of Empire '93 PCM track to the GOUT. MANY more sections needed re-aligning compared to the previous one. The sonic superiority however is much more dramatic. I'll hopefully get Jedi done today as well, and get them posted through the usual channels.

One note on the 35mm Dolby Stereo that's been posted already: The overall level was set so peaks fall in the neighborhood of "0". This is just good practice when transferring analogue material into the digital domain. However, because of the intentionally limited dynamics of this mix, when played side by side with the '93 mix (which also peaks at "0", but with far more dynamic range), it will seem noticeably louder.

I think it might be more appropriate to issue a second version of this at a reduced level referenced to the ’93 PCM, to better represent its place in the larger scheme (sorry Mallwalker!). I would also propose that the forthcoming issues of the ’85 remix and the mono mix follow this convention.
