Anyone here notice any strange audio glitches with the 1985 Laserdisc track on the 2.5? Like very faint repetitions of sound in some scenes? Like the scene with Luke & Ben on the Falcon. When Ben replies "That's good, you've taken your first step into a larger world." After he says world, you then hear the word again very faintly. Like world--orld. There's other examples too but that one really sticks out for me. Just wonder if anyone else noticed.
If I had to guess, this is probably an artifact called "print-through" that occurs on magnetic tape.
I have heard print-through in many older movies/TV shows/records/etc. - it's most prominent in quiet parts, and especially noticeable through headphones. And once you hear it, you can never un-hear it...:)
I definitely hear something going on with the "first step into a larger world." Like the very end of the "d" in "world" is repeated- or, it's at least some kind of "click" in the sound that's being repeated.
This reminds me of something I heard back in the 90s, but wasn't sure if it was my imagination or not. Pretty sure it was on the 1995 THX widescreen VHS (therefore, the 1993 mix), though it could've been from the 1990 VHS (the 1985 mix). When R2-D2 is opening the escape pod, 3PO says, "you're not permitted in there, it's restricted," I could've sworn I could hear the "it's restricted" line repeat very faintly in the background, so it was like "You're not permitted in there, it's restricted it's restricted." Though I just checked the 1985 and 1993 mixes in Harmy's 2.5, and I don't hear it.
