Again, I hear no advantages from it, over a wide variety of genres on a wide variety of sound systems. Sometimes I think I'm hearing something but then I won't hear it later so I've deduced it's probably just wanting to hear something from it and my mind filling in the blanks. It wouldn't be used for any type of remastering in the first place if the differences weren't there. That doesn't mean a person's senses are going to pick up all of the differences, but from 16 to 24 bits they'll at least notice some difference. So no, it's not just the sound of insanity you're hearing. What kind of difference? What should people look for? You can tell me "you'll hear it" all you want but no, I need some elaboration on it. It's like vinyl all over again, where people told me I would hear a fuller, "warmer" sound and all I heard was a higher noise level and the occasional pop and crack. Edited 1 time(s).

I'm not an insane audiophile, but I don't accept anything that has any distinguishable flaws or lower quality, and I'm finding this soundtrack to be of perfect quality. Can we not all just buck up and enjoy this masterful work of art?

And there are none, probably. The TSN sampler ( [www.ninwiki.com] ) had multiple tracks repeated, and whilst it did have one original track (Dinner With Sean), I think TRAR probably have put one version of every piece of score they've made on the OST this time round. I certainly hope so, because if there ARE four extra tracks we're not getting...well, I'm just totally unsatisfied. And being sarcastic.

Those are made for various award groups that require having only original music composed specifically for and used in the film put on a disc. There's nothing in there you don't have longer and more listenable versions of with the official release. The titles refer to the cue lists that the editors, director and everyone else uses to refer to scenes.

Well, I haven't posted on this forum in over 9000 years, but I better pop in and mention that I think Immigrant Song, A Thousand Details, Great Bird of Prey and Is Your Love Strong Enough? are my faves at this point. #stats

Thank fuck for that, at least. 8D Maybe some tracks were just allowed to grow longer than necessary, or they had this 3 h film blob and no one had yet decided which bits would be cut??? is rather clueless on moviemaking

Just don't look at ETS right now because there are a bunch of nerds over there who are comparing the soundtrack coming from different sources and OMGWTFBBQ, source A of track X is 1.03 second longer than the same track from source B! I love my ETS nerds.

dobyblue member Joined: 05/09/08 Location: Gilead Posts: 156	rodheh posted: I typically don't listen to the sort of music that would drastically feature the dynamics you speak of though The vast majority of music up to the late 90's features the dynamics he/she is referring to. Around 1991 it was rare to hear an album come out with the massive amounts of dynamic range compression currently used. Example: Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991) - 14dB dynamic range Red Hot Chili Peppers - I'm With You (2011) - 3dB dynamic range Loudness wars has ruined many a CD of late. Vinyl is often mastered differently and not as heavy-handed as the CD, so yes vinyl can sound fuller and more immersive but not just because it's vinyl, because the mastering was far superior. This is a good video to describe what's happening to dynamics, but you have to keep your volume at one level throughout otherwise the effect is ruined (start with it fairly loud) - [www.youtube.com] Not saying that has anything to do with 24/96 vs. 16/44.1, but if the 24/96 files have less dynamic range compression then like vinyl there is an additional reason outside bit-depth and sampling rate to desire them.

Trent has said he'll be less busy next year, so it's possible he won't, but Atticus doesn't do interviews much sadly so I'm not sure there. Fincher has also threatened to not do the next two due to the production company cutting his Director's cut a significant amount, so who knows what's going to happen?
