1. you just took the sound/effects track from the completed movie.
2. in some spots it's just too loud and you can't hear the set audio.
3. just use the cd soundtrack, ditch the sound effect.
4. if you can, run all the set audio through a limiter/compressor.
Thx for interesting, if disheartening feedback ;-) Here is my response to a few of your points.
1. The new sound mix is not taken straight from the movie mix. Every cut in the deleted cantina scene is different, so I had to cut up the movie mix considerably to sync it in. My mix is created from around 35 seperate audio elements. Blending original and deleted dialogue, heavily re-aranged movie mix sound and music, CD soundtrack elements and my own voice acting efforts.
2. The onset audio is practically non-existent in the deleted scene. When a main character isn't talking the audio drops in and out at random points leaving a high pitched whine and loud bangs can be heard from the extras. In fact the sound drops out when main characters are talking too. The drops in sound caused my ears to pop, meaning the original footage on the Blu-ray is barely watchable for me at least.
3. When luke first enters the bar Ben Burtt has created a cacophonous barrage of wierd alien sounds and voices to overwhelm the senses. If this wasn't present the scene would only impact you on a visual level. You'll notice than in the second half of the scene I've not used the movie mix audio and have just layed new music over the dialogue. While it could be a tad quieter, this would cause the lack of background sound to become noticable. As the second half of the scene takes place in a quieter alcove I thought this change in my approach to the soundscape was appropriate.
4. Above my pay grade sorry. Although the fact that the dialogue from the deleted scene is a bit cr*ppy, is fine with me. As this is supposed to be a rough version anyway. I've made it louder in a few places is all.
As I said I'm probably gonna do a second 'Purist'??? version of this fanedit. With this I'll have to construct a new sound mix that sounds like a complete recording of the on-set audio, then overlay it with an imaginary temp audio track.
