1997 Special Edition Audio Mixes, GOUT-Synced (Released)

I, too, discovered a problem that is being repaired. Turns out I misaligned a few bits of audio for small snippets of the Left and Right channels that were directed to the Center channel to undo Special Edition changes such as Luke’s scream. There are at least one of these issues per film, and this is being corrected along with what ChainsawAsh is doing.
Thanks for your patience; but V2 ought to be what we are all hoping for.

^ Same here.
When it was announced, I was sure I wouldn’t be seeing it. Not out of silly protest, but lack of interest. But the promos n’ such have won me over.
I’ll be there opening day. Haven’t said that since TPM…

Much like my attitude toward Rogue One, these stand-alone movies are like extra credit. It’d have to be real bad to register as a negative for me, and if it’s halfway decent I’ll enjoy it without the anxiety of a new saga movie.

The anthology films are like meeting a new coworker with potential to develop an independent friendship, and the saga films are like meeting a new lifelong family member.

Or sometimes you get multiple streams synced that multiple people are working on and encode them all and have them ready to go and new ideas have to be declined. Lol
It’d be an okay change to make, but I’m afraid things are locked down at this point. COD V5 exists, and I’ll get it to you all soon as I am able. I will not be able to upload it for a while, and hopefully by then TAS and LOE will be able to join it.

Both versions have “Bring my shuttle,” since in the SE the very next shot continues the musical score with a new establishing shot of his shuttle on the landing platform.
Similarly, neither version has Luke’s lightsaber deactivation sound effect as he flees the wampa, under the justification that including the OOT audio here is a natural function of using it for the scene as a whole.

About the crawl. I took a glance at the OT opening STAR WARS logos while I am exporting my GOUT-synced SE audio.

Turns out that ANH and ESB’s logos begin at about the same place Ridley’s (and therefore my PT and TFA edits) crawls do, and ROTJ is the only one of the OT films that begins with the logo closer to the camera as the prequels do.

TFA appears to be something like halfway between. Obviously can’t check TLJ right now.

So, there’s that. 😃

Got them all encoded, and ChainsawAsh will be providing DTS encodes as well.

The plan is to release them as DTS, 448kbps 5.1 AC3, and 256kbps 2.0 AC3 to suite people’s various needs.

When Han shoots Greedo, it sounds like the audio shifts slightly, but it is like that in the 1997 mix itself. I’ve vetted the files, and everything seems to be good. I look forward to listening to these next Fall before Episode 9, probably. I’ll let you all know once these are up.
