Just spotted, watching Adywan's reconstruction recently, and now that I really know that score note per note that it misses a couple of things in the current version I made...

There are special little variations in editing here and there... Notably in "Battle In The Snow" (a very subtle edited bit), a repetion I missed in "Luke's first crash", a subtle variation in the "Asteroid field" near the begining (though I wonder if it's not simply a bad edit in the film), what else ?... Oh yeah: the "City In The Clouds" have not the 9 first sec. segment in the film, "The Magic Tree" I made must be the SE version, not the original... And also spotted the "Hyperspace" track had special edit in the film (same kind than "Snowspeeders")...

There may be more, but frankly, even with the more rudimentary digital tools (I used audacity for the AE), anyone will be able to make a new and accurate version if he wills. The only matter is to know the score very well.

Just so you know. ;)

Edit: Anyone is invited to feed this thread (or another) with a new version, of course ! I don't know if I'll make one myself.
