How can you not have multichannel system

The movie "Sweet Dreams" (based on the life of Patsy Cline) is an interesting example of what can be done with remixing. It was discovered that the original master tapes of her singing in an isolation booth existed in good condition, although the accompaning instrumental tracks were in less good condition, and somewhat dated in performance techniques. For the movie soundtrack a remix was done using Patsy's original voice track with parts of the instrumental tracks and also some brand new instrumental tracks. The result can be heard on MCAD-6149 DIDX-424. (By the way Jessica Lange did a superb job of lip syncing in the movie, which I recommend as well as the CD). The remix was done by a who's-who of Nashville sound men.

Another remix that I think is interesting is a DVDA "Emmylou Harris, Producer's Cut". This was done by her former husband Brian Ahern. There is on the disc an extensive video with Brian where he explains how and why the multichannel remix was done. Again, some new tracks were added.

By the way, apart from the technical interest, both discs are nice music.

That's the type of info that interests me...the creative choices.

I was hoping there might be an article along these lines available on the net.

Tvad, I decided to help you along and with my incredible research skills (having honed them at the Library of Congress)I found an interview with the chief engineer of the multichannel sacd Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd. He goes into every detail that you are seeking.

Please copy and and paste and report back with your impressions.

Still just a guy talking loudly (sometimes sarcastically and rudely) about what his preference in musical presentation is....perhaps you'd like to tell me next how I should want my steak cooked....

Mig007, I already read that article from beginning to end. I referred to it three
posts
earlier:

Thus far, I have found only one article about
"Dark Side of the Moon" remixed into SACD multi-channel, but it
does not provide the technical info I would expect to find in an SACD remix
primer.

While he discussed aspects of synching (locking up) the various tracks for the
remix, he did not go into the detail I am seeking regarding the multi channel
mix.

When you mentioned SACD primers many posts ago, I thought you had
something bookmarked. No need to expend any more energy.

Thanks again for your efforts
