thejediknighthusezni , Greats ideas... For an edit called "The Empire Struck Through"...! :)
This work will be a little more difficult than I thought. But it will also be more interesting than I thought. It's worth working on the synchronization a little further than just pasting my tracks as they are.

Wow, can we get some hi-rez of these?
Just check the AE files ! You've got almost 100mb of high res arts, all made from high res doc.
(Tell me, how can you miss what is included in the set?)
Brothers... ahhh... Always taking our best stuff away ! I'll have to shake my home to find it...
D_J, I don't think if I'm going to make the film cut version in the end. For exemple, the insert (SE bit) from Ice planet is cut and has a repeated bit in that version, when Ady's reconstruction features the entire bit, even more complete than on the soundtrack. I guess the end of Yoda and the Force for other instance, is cut with a "March" bit, when here again Ady's reconstruction have the original score ending...
In the other hand, restoring the the unused score over the film mix would be great as far as I witness now... wow!...

Don't be ridiculous. Ric is long gone.
Noooooooooooooooooooo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nobody ever noticed the right channel was lower in the ESB GOUT stereomix ? I noticed right away when I listened random parts of it. Watching the waveform in Audacity only confirmed.
Perhaps it is due to downmixing then it is better to be left that way for a matter of equilibrium (that sould be easy to check if it "kills" the relief of the sound or not lifting the right channel).
-Edit: well, taking a closer look I'd avoid touching it.

Translation... Err... Ah. Sorry it's a personal message for me.
No Ric, I haven't seen your new ship. I'm too busy.

Makes me think about a tyran with his rules !
No way! That was a MINOR point !

That CD case looks amazing...
Indeed, Avp used the sleeves for his covers what looks nice.
I still like that one though:
And I love CD3 backcover ;)
Ohh ! I thought it would cost him points on the contrary.

... unless you are talking about the bonus disk non anamorphic version that came with it, that would be the GOUT.
Of course I do... hoping I can find where I've put it. Is your version the LD preservation ? (Sorry I haven't followed your thread that far... Don't even know what GOUT stands for).
D_J, is your GOUT the same as the 2004 DVD cut ? ... I may have to check some passages against the picture to see if they fit alright.
Haha ! I'm saying I don't WANT anything! Who am I to request something from you ?

but who is myself? Is it wrong to care what others think? I would think it would be selfish to not care what others think.
It would be selfish not to care what other feel. Once again you ignore Yoda's teachings! Thoughts are like clouds and wind: they come and go, have no value, no substance more than what you allow these to have.
And you shouldn't care about my vote (that wasn't): I don't care what you think, or say in such a place as this forum. We haven't met here. Besides, if you met in real life people from this forum that you're in disagreement with, who knows if you wouldn't love them whatever their opinions and their way to put these here... Are you talking politics with every single person you meet ?... Are you chosing your neighbours or your wife depending on their opinions ?
Oh ! You're there Frink !!? I thought you were on hollydays. Shit !

It's an interesting and original concept, the sample look kinda cool in black & white, I'm not a big fan of isolated scores on DVD but if you're planning to have the score as originally written for the film, I'm all for it.
I'm not a fan of isolated scores neither. We're going to have as you say: the score as originally written as far as possible. Besides that's what shows D_J's sample, and it is the first time I witness the original score against the picture. :) Not mentionning it's going to be a high bitrate sound. I think I'm going to be excited about it soon. lol !
The isolated film cut soundtrack will surely be made though, cause I now know every note and can spot every variation very easily. 'shouldn't be too hard to edit.
ABC, I can check that for you, I've never heard that the rare version should be on the '04 DVD menu, if that's the case it's really cool.
Great, thanks. I'm almost sure it is, and if I'm right it's possibly long enough for reediting.

I will PM you the download link, please keep the PCM track for yourself
No problem ! ;)
And the sleeves montage...
... The Definitive cardboard cover btw...
There's no hurry... My new material is almost completed but I'm still working on a couple of alternate edits and try some improvements.
Let's take our time ;)
From:
D_J’s SW Trylogy Project (Gout Sourced) + ABC’s ESB “Audiophile Edition” (upgraded version)
THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK "IMPERIAL EDITION"
John WILLIAMS And The LONDON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
The Project:
A DVD featuring the Complete Original Score as written by John Williams, playing over D_J’s GOUT sourced version.
Particularities: Using the final upgrade from my last effort for the Empire Strikes Back Audiophile Edition, we agreed with Dark Jedi to save all the space from the DVD for the music and its now more than partially recovered sound quality. We then opted for a black and white version, and obviously silent.
SAMPLE VOB file (16 min opening, W.I.P. and 1st draft)
Final Versions:
Here is a sample of “Asteroids”
http://www.sendspace.com/file/pidl8b
Here is a sample of “Mynock Cave”
Note: there’s no tracked parts from other cues like they did for the film in this reconstruction. All has been done to bring back the original score as far as possible. Film versions cuts have only been made when there was no other choice for synchronization with the picture. Every single bit has its place and nothing has been left to hasard. Film version cues mostly consist in tiny bits of music deleted or repeated to match even more with the acting.
- The single titles next to the sessions tape references are from John Williams Original cue sheet (credit to J. Takis for sharing this documentation) -
