Im going to attempt a new custom 5.1 mix at some point using all the elements Ive accumulated over the years.
The mei ah 5.1 remaster has a music and sound fx only option if you remove the centre channel. It sounds o.k like the clarity of the english dub. Adding the centre channel makes it phase horrible and on the whole contains some horrible gliches!
Hoping the Japanese blu is better in this regard.
Ive synced up as much of the CD soundtrack as possible to help with the mix but the opening Teahouse Shootout and most of the Hospital Shootout are not contained on the CD, as the tracks listed are ALT mixes or do not exist.
My custom mix will proberbly be a bit removed from the mono mix and be more a remix like you get on some Hong Kong DVD / BLU releases. Still pondering what to do with this tho and if its even worth it. I am somebody who is not bothered by remixes as long as there done well, preferably with the original mix available on the disc. Which on most of John Woos discs is not the case.
