... The sound field is nice and wide and you hear instruments in many different spots. :)

I like reading how people perceive / or translate their perception of the sound.

If I had to compare these recordings, I'd say the digital ones from the sessions show an horizontal space (stereo quality), when the analog ones rather have a vertical orientated space (depth quality). And if we tried to invert this affirmation we would be more confronted to a quantity question, rather than a quality one I think... :)

Only the layered tracks borrow both these two qualities... In a way.

... I think I am going to take clips from this set for the audio on my DVD menu's, would that be OK with you ABC?

If you want to reedit all the score in the film from that set I would still be glad (despite the DVD audio compression) !

I' m just a little jealous as I surely won't be able to witness your great reconstructions.
