There were several apocryphal horror stories about Lucasfilm letting rot reels and tapes in their own archives, but I'm sure all the music for all the films they made is safely stored in pristine hi-res digital files. Oh indeed. Disney will release them properly only when but everything else they're marketing is utterly spent, and all interest is beginning to wane.

crumbs 14,305 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 A modern scan of the tapes will still sound better than ones made in 2005, but there's no doubt those 2005 scans are vastly superior to the 1996 SE scans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,322 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 There wouldn't be anything wrong with the 2005 transfers. Do you think the technology to play a tape and make a 24bit/96khz digital recording of it has changed at all from then to now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess my question is whether they were actually transferred at such a high resolution so many years ago. Astute forward planning if they did! To be honest I figured that technology in all fields of analogue to digital transfers has improved over the years (like film scanning, for example). I guess audio transfers are different and you can't necessarily transfer more detail off the tapes like you can with film prints as scanning technology improves.

Jay 37,322 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Technology has certainly improved, for example the 2005 transfers were better than the 1996 transfers. I don't know if the technology since 2005 has done as much as between 1996 and 2005, though. I think by the mid 2000s everyone was aware of resolutions and hard drive space wasn't an issue so they always did max The bummer is the scores recorded in the 90s to early 2000s that will forever exist only at something like 24bit 44.1khz cause that's the only way it was recorded. I want to say one or more JW scores from that era was recorded that way but I can't recall which Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,305 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Was ROTS the only digitally recorded prequel score? I hear mixed reports about AOTC. I'm guessing ROTS was recorded at 24bit/96khz. Horrible to think so many scores were recorded at 44.1khz. As short-sighted as Lucas shooting in 1080p! aj_vader 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philosopher's Stone (2001), Chamber of Secrets (2002), Minority Report (2002), War of the Worlds (2005) and Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008) all leaked in complete form.

Amer 2,080 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Last minute snags often delay the release date. Its norm. Wait for a "Eureka" hyped update hint from MV. Thats the one to look out for in Aug/ Sept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,322 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 JFK wasn't exactly "announced" in the strictest sense, just mentioned in a forum that they got the license. They reason labels generally don't like to talk about upcoming releases is because things can completely fall apart before they come out. For example the title MV mentioned they planned to have out in 2014 for the film's 10th anniversary, that still isn't approved. Or The Great Race, which they expected to be out in 2015 for its 50th anniversary but is only coming out now in 2017. Or Hook, planned for it's 20th anniversary in 2011 came out in 2012. Or a title a producer told me about once that he completely finished all work on, and was just waiting for the order announcement, but it never came and eventually the title came out years later on another label redone from scratch. All kinds of kooky things happen and if the labels talked about everything they have in the works, they'd be deluged with endless emails asking when stuff's coming out RICHARDSTRAUSS68 and Ricard 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
