Hey Guys,

Just found this thread. I've been looking for raw digital rips of the Pal Tapes for a few years now, but I think you guys taking it to another level and making a "definitive" fan preservation compilation of the series is a great idea.

I'm based in the states and would love to contribute, however I can. I don't have much to offer, content wise, that you guys don't already have covered. I do have three of the Double-length J2 tapes from the early-90's-- the two Ewoks volumes, and the second Droids volume (with "The Lost Prince" and "The New King"). As mentioned before, these tapes do include full opening and closing credits specific to each series (including the season 1 intro for Ewoks). I have ripped these to digital.

I also have .cbr's and .pdf's of both series' entire Star Comics releases.

I might have something to offer in terms of post work, however. I've actually been working professionally as a video/audio editor for a few years now, and have a fair amount of high end software at my disposal. One area where I might could be of help (and one area that I've noticed we haven't spoken much on in the forum) is with some sound clean-up-- when I digitized my tapes I ran a few low pass filters to gate out the tape noise, did a little quick eq-ing and amped up the levels, and got the tapes sounding pretty good, for a stereo mix. Post-sound is kind of my specialty at work anyway.

Adding one more step to this already ambitious project might be asking for trouble, and though my schedule is relatively free for the next month I do typically stay pretty busy (as I'm sure most of you do as well).

Regardless, if I can be involved I'd love to. Either way I'll keep posted and can't wait to get a copy.
