Trent B 337 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 That's kind of bad when producers of a CD don't take the time to make sure things are transferred properly like they should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigitalfreakNYC 59 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 However vocal some of the soundtrack collector crowds are, they're not enough to justify the amount of money it takes to make a release like this.Then who is this release for, if not the Indiana Jones/soundtrack fans? No one else would buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjguitar 0 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 That's kind of bad when producers of a CD don't take the time to make sure things are transferred properly like they should be.yeah its frustrating, still this is a lot better than only having OOP OSTs that cost $40+ each.

phbart 609 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 The original Raides release had a pitch problem too. It was lower. But I did manage to correct it with Adobe Audition, and now sounds perfect, and by doing this, I realized how "Flight from Peru" and "Map Room: Dawn" sounds so much better than the DCC release."Flight from Peru", the violins plucks are much more detailed and "Map Room: Dawn" the choral is much more emphasized.For you guys who owns the Concord set already, how are these two tracks in comparison with the DCC?

Henry B 50 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 The clarity is amazing, but when you correct the pitch it's lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taikomochi 1,136 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Death Of Kazim: Does anybody else think the end note was almost meant to flow into "Belly Of The Steel Beast"?Well, Williams has done it where he made 2 separate cues that sound intended to go together. For example, if you line up Over the Cliff and Ants! just perfectly together, it sounds superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the original album, all the selected cues were remixed by John Neal at the Fox Studios in L.A. The DCC expanded release used instead the original film mixes by Eric Tomlinson. In the end, it's a matter of personal preferences.Apparently, the Concord release is a blend of both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Mark 3,631 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Map / Out Of Fuel: It sounded to me like you could add the Lego insert in no problem. Also, I think a later section was also different than the film version... like there was 2 inserts recorded.I think the entire cue is an alternateNow... it was said before that "Short Round Helps" sounded a bit different in sound quality, and I think they were right. Although it isn't really sound quality that is the problem, I think it is purely a pitch problem. It plays too slow. In fact, if you compare the first section of it to the Lego Game's file that featured the unreleased portion, it is more obvious that on CD it is slower. The lego file had it at the correct pitch. Any help as to how to make the pitch of this one track match?I think it's just the volume that's too low ,raise by a few db Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,306 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Impossible to know, it's pretty much dialled out in the film. Let's just think of it as a brand new cue either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,631 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 nalog recordings. He said that when this happens with vintage rock recordings (i.e.: music with a steady rhythm or tempo) is much more annoying.Another friend told me that one of the most famous recordings of Puccini's Tosca (the one performed by Callas/DiStefano/Gobbi, conducted by Victor De Sabata in 1953) was originally released by EMI-Ricordi with the incorrect pitch, however it has always been considered as one of the best. Only last year Naxos re-released it with pitch and speed corrected. I bet quite a few opera aficionados still prefer the wrong one.it probably happens with a lot of scores ,only if it's Raiders then Neil will find it .Like the wrong tint of the Rebel Troopers shirts in the Star Wars DVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManofDestiny 71 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 It's seems that even I chose to ship the set with TDK 2CD together, Amazon still going to ship them separately. My Indy set should be shipped within a few days and the shipping to Hong Kong usually takes 1 week.Moreover, Amazon charge me $41.99 and $6.49 for shipping.Anyway, I will receive the set in 2 weeks.

King Mark 3,631 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I dunno if anyone should mess with the pitch on Raiders for such a tiny difference . I think our PC softwares to do this aren't good enough to do it without screwing up overrall sound quality.

Joe Brausam 214 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 So...has anyone split the new Concord version of "Belly of the Steel Beast" in half so that they could insert "On the Tank"?Because I don't have the tools to do it. Also, no one has seemed to mentioned that the Last Crusade cover art fills the entire cover, not just a small section of it like was shown in the press photos.

RuBen_Kenobi 19 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Finally the set is going to be released in stores in Spain. In Fnac we have the boxset on the teradata at the prize of 40,75 euros (without offer, I´m sure when it will released it will cost like 5 or 6 euros less, so is not a bad prize) but I think it will have to wait to be released like a couple of weeks (we don´t have the order neither the number of copies yet...)

indy4 155 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I think joey225 was including the words "Indiana Jones" as part of the cover art (as technically, they are a part). I prefer the version in the press release, as even though it's smaller, it looks more natural.But I think both are pretty bad, I wonder who hatched that brilliant idea.
