bollemanneke 3,348 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Has he ever said/Do you know if he also makes 5.1 mixes of the cues that somehow don't make it on the CDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,317 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Not that I'm aware. I don't remember Mike ever talking about his editing workflow (presumably ProTools?) or how he masters his scores, nor what software he uses to clean them up. I'd be interested to know how he consolidates scores like Dracula, sourced from a range of different qualities of masters, into the final stereo product. But I'm a sucker for that type of ultra-technical detail, maybe that bores other people. But I certainly didn't realise Mike masters all his expansions in high resolution surround sound. Would be nice to know which scores actually exist in such quality, for future reference. Clearly it's dependant on the quality of master Mike had at his disposal.

Jay 37,364 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Sorry, I think you misunderstand me, I never meant the imply he does everything in surround sound: I am saying his work methodology is to ALWAYS start with the HIGHEST quality element available, and STAY in that level of quality all the way to to the final product. He always delivers a compilation of each cue at whatever resolution that is back to the studio that owns the music so they can do what they want with it, along with his final mastered album program which would also be at the same resolution. THEN he creates a 16/441 downmix for the final specialty label physical CD. Interestingly if there is a vinyl, that starts from the high res master, not the 16/441 downmix! The whole 5.1 thing is just in the discussion specifically because HP2 and HP3's digital archives the music editor assembled and archived and was given to Mike for this project was 5.1 Often 70s and 80s scores are in 3-channel stereo, old scores could be mono or 2 channel stereo, etc bollemanneke and Holko 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even then, they'd need Williams approval to release such materials (and it wasn't possible back in 2012, according to MV). Then there's the whole Sony situation... What occurred to me is Mike's comment about 'having an idea' to convince Williams to release The Sugarland Express. I wonder... what if he approached Williams and said he wanted to celebrate their milestone release with his first Spielberg collaboration? The premiere release of an entirely unreleased film score, already scanned and assembled in preparation for the Heritage Collection (before Williams pulled the plug). Would the honour of that milestone be enough to secure Williams' approval, given how many of his scores LLL and Mike have now remastered? Just a thought. I can't imagine what else Mike's idea was, other than bundling the score alongside Always in a 2CD anniversary set (45th and 30th respectively).
