Ah yes those articles were a great help with audio changes, the near-archival list of changes on starwars.com didn't include anything about their audiomixes.

Ghosting, yeah in the GOUT a little, just when I slowed it down so it would be a couple of frames longer as to not drop in any extra frames during encoding, and to fit into the timeline. Won't happen in SW. I'm doing the audio mix last. Going to try and make a deal for Neil S. Buck's corrected surround 1997 mix, for the rear channels to replace the DVD ones. That's the deal with that right?

I'm having troubles with the subtleties of the 2004 audio mix. There's the obvious changes that can be heard and easily replaced with some other source, but I can't find any definite answers to certain issues. Where exactly are the extra battle sound fx? Are the music channels reversed the whole time? I have the mono mix for reference, and the stereo mix for reference, but where could I find information on the uniqueness of the original six track? There's the mono mix comparison page, the "list of changes to Star Wars" thread that was very detailed about the audio. Any other definitive threads or sites?
