This is extremely disappointing.

Still, prolly better than the web-rip.
It was necessary.

Oh and I made that cover you wanted for this (but probably not the right time to mention that)

Thanks for the effort, Lockdown. Too bad about the lossy tracks.

Don't know whose cover that is (Helix?), but I like it a lot!

This is an older one of mine(cover not rip that's Lockdown's :smrt:) but I sorta remade the FYC packaging in anticipation for this.


http://mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Dr.-Who.gif

Honestly we could use a white cover for the FYC release, like the physical cover for it is.

And just by the file sizes alone the files have to be in a much better quality so that's good at least. I needed a better source for "Our World" really badly.

I give you an A for effort. Thanks for sharing this FYC soundtrack.

Rest assured Lockdown, we're all feeling them devilish blighters called emotions at the moment.

I needed a better source for "Our World" really badly.

Same here. I've been listening to it on repeat all afternon in anticipation of hearing it in a higher quality

A true disappointment... but like T-Mann said, we appreciate the effort.

Our last likely hope is the film's 5.1 mix when the movie hits home media. Maybe we'll get lucky.

And I like the term "flossy". Did you come up with that?

The quality of the disc files are slightly better than the web files.

Good stuff guys, it wasn't a total bust overall, the quality of the tracks are great.


Awesome cover as usual Helix.

Good stuff guys, it wasn't a total bust overall, the quality of the tracks are great.

Can you no longer hear the distorted-ness?

I just listened to it for the first time and it sounded fucking amazing

Better than these shit 192k files. Adi�s

Better than these shit 192k files. Adi�s

well, the quality isn't so much better... compare them in adobe audition and you'll see what I mean.

Thanks a lot

Thanks Lockdown

Thanks !

5m21 Our World sounds way better to me. Every time I listen to it on my iPhone I find my thumb reaching for the volume to crank it up and then I realize it's already at full volume. This version is way louder. Im happy.

well, the quality isn't so much better... compare them in adobe audition and you'll see what I mean.

See the thing is, if both the web stream and this disc is lossy-sourced and they had to obviously transcode the source to 192k for size issues for the web stream whereas they could directly burn those source file to the disc for this, that makes this one better even if the difference is marginal, it's there.

Damn. Well, I guess you can't win them all. I haven't seen the movie yet, but, this is a beautiful score. Here's hoping to some future complete lossless release. Whether leaked or not.
Thanks anyways for this beautiful addition to the interstellar collection.

Thank you. Much appreciated.

Well, if you want the mp3 files louder, you can boost the volume around 10db in adobe audition.

What I meant, the disc files have slightly more data than the web files. Not much, but that's the reason I think the disc files are better. Not because they are louder...

Just noticed Imperfect Contact and Messages From Home are both alternates, imperfect contact isn't the film mix but it's not the album mix either and it's longer

Well, if you want the mp3 files louder, you can boost the volume around 10db in adobe audition.

I used to do that in the past, had to do it with all of the Oblivion iso score. I just got tired of doing it. I work in Audition nearly every day, it gets tiring


Just noticed Imperfect Contact and Messages From Home are both alternates, imperfect contact isn't the film mix but it's not the album mix either and it's longer

Even more material? This is getting rediciulous. I hope someone can make a near-accurate 100% film mix when the Blu-ray hits

I don't argue with that. Let's say the web files have 40% of the lossless quality.. then the disc files have maybe 45% of that quality... slightly better.

Collectors. Novelty. Rarity.

The prices aren't coming down because some people in a forum think it doesn't sound as well as it should.

I also wonder what will now happen with the price for those discs on ebay...

I seriously hope they drastically drop and people can't sell them for more than $10. No pity from me. Most of the sellers probably didn't even pay for them. Serves em right. Now I'm not saying that it's their fault - Paramount/WB shat on these discs before they were distributed, but the sellers don't gotta make it highway robbery

Thanks Lockdown!

Better than crap 192kbps mp3 stuffs!!
Thanks.

It could be that your FYC copy is a fake one. I think it should contain lossless tracks.
Send it back to the seller and try to buy another copy!

:this:
honestly, Lockdown if you're smart just completely disregard everything else posted here and just take this comment and everything will start to make sense in life. :laugh:

Send it back to the seller and try to buy another copy!

As if the seller has any knowledge of quality and whatnot. Unlikely. Probably as stupid as the Academy members who listen and nominate these scores

It's not fake.

For volume, you could also use ReplayGain (track mode).
Or you an use EBU R128 Loudness gain.

In Foobar2000.

EBUR128 is a DSP you need to install manually.
ReplayGain is a tag in the file with no file manipulation.
Very few hardware media players support RG. Not many software players support RG either.

As if the seller has any knowledge of quality and whatnot. Unlikely. Probably as stupid as the Academy members who listen and nominate these scores

I don't understand why they burned lossy tracks to a FYC CD?
If a seller wanted to make extra bucks by ripping mp3 files to a CD that has FYC label, it makes sense. Hahaha

Wouldn't be the first time it happened

I don't think anyone will know except for the one who actually made the FYC disc.

Since it's meant just for consideration, largely "quality" being subjective to "content" rather than "technical" quality, they don't need to master a CD.
Mastering for web streaming was all they had in mind.
They don't care about us.

Wouldn't be the first time it happened

Last time, I ordered dozens of "limited edition" complete scores from Amazon and EBay. Besides one copy, nearly all of them were fake CDs made with lossy mp3 files converted into WAV. I sent them back and asked for refund but I couldn't get a cent back.
They make CDs with illegally downloaded mp3 files gathered from internet forums and charge more than 40 dollars per a copy.

No one really knows. All of those fake CDs had proper labels and artworks that were quite convincing.

it doesn't matter if the score is lossy sourced. this is so far the best version we might ever get. stop bitching around folks, i know not everyone is doing it, and enjoy this wonderful gift lockdown has given us :)

just for the record... today i've received the cd of gridirongang and this slso looks like a lossy sourced cd. first time i seen this on a varese album.

They don't care about us.

No offense, but Gridiron Gang is not Interstellar

Only one time I got screwed from an eBay seller.

Elementary season 1 on DVD.
I was able to prove that it was a pirated copy compressed from DVD-5 to DVD-9.
I proved it to the seller first before doing anything.
Got an immediate refund and was able to keep the coasters.

It's like math class, you can't just say "this is lossy".
You have to show your work. :smrt:
Solid evidence and the process you took to do it.
If it can be replicated, it can be proven.

Just noticed Imperfect Contact and Messages From Home are both alternates, imperfect contact isn't the film mix but it's not the album mix either and it's longer

The FYC "Message From Home" is Hans himself playing, part of the original mocked-up score. The album version is on a real instrument - I'm not sure if it's still Hans playing or one of the other pianists. The latter is used in the film, albeit truncated slightly.

You just bought something that we have already...

About the louder part, you can simply make it happen. A little click on Goldwave, you got it.

I did it with the entire sessions release, creat a �louder version�.
:love

But Lockdown didn't know. He took a chance and it didn't have such great results

Ohhhhh I apologise! Lockdown, you're still the real MVP

I believe Audacity, Goldwave and Sony SoundForge all have "Peak normalization".
Where it increases volume by reaching maximum peak levels (before clipping).

Anything that increases the volume as a whole rather than segments/parts/sampels is better.
Peak vs. RMS (Root Mean Square) normalization.

What's nice about this release is that it's slightly better source than the Guild site rip.
So now we can "remaster" starting from a flossy source. Without loosing much more quality than we had been deprived of.

Until the bluray surfaces.

But Lockdown didn't know. He took a chance and it didn't have such great results

better sell the discs again, as long as people are buying them^^

Thanks！！！

Thanks Lockdown. It's not as nice as we hoped, bu it seems like people are saying that these are at least somewhat better than the webrip, so I'll give it a download. :D

It's all good guys, the seller sent me a partial $10 refund. :)

What a joke!

What a joke!
It's better than nothing I guess, but last year when I purchased the 12 Years a Slave FYC and it had issues, the seller sent me a $50 refund..

Thanks for the up even though they screwed the pooch. It's much appreciated.

I've been upping the volume in MP3Gain when necessary, a bunch of stuff I've downloaded has either been insanely loud to the point of clipping, or too soft to hear without cranking it. I normalize everything in my library so I don't have to hit the knob often.

Yes

Currently working on fixing Quantifiable Connection, the first 1:45 isn't too damaged and quite a lot of the rest can be taken from the screener for now

Just about most of the piano solo at the end of quantifiable connection is SFX free. I think our best shot for cleaning up the middle of the track will have to involve ripping it when they release the bluray

I remember Catching Fire leaked in either January or February last year before the Blu was released in early March. It was definitely a month in advance

All I've seen for Interstellar are shitty 720 rips. We won't have anything decent until the digital release comes closer

Bluray movies usually get a month in advance leak.

This is different for every movie, however.
There's no real gauge for it.

But, it will hit private torrent sites before it hits public torrent sites.

First, there's the ditial HD version. The Web-DL. PublicHD used to have a lot of those. When it was alive.

Then scene groups release their 720p bdrip, and then slowly upgrade from there.

In cases where a movie is released internationally before North America, it'll be available more than one month.

The Lone Ranger was first released in Italy on BD long before reaching North America. About 3 months in advance, I think.
The same with Malificent.

This version sounds better.

Is this a homemade version of some sort.. an edit from different cues?

I got it from someone on the internet that was lossy sourced and processed the file myself and posted it. I don't know where they got it, sorry. Is it ok till a lossless version comes along, or is there other bad files in the release? I can master them into 24-bit~96khz if you want?

I noticed an odd 'jump' at the 9sec mark, the organ kicks in too fast, on the fyc cue it's more smooth.
And I think this version is different than the version on the FYC score... but maybe someone with more knowledge about the score can check that.

Wonder if there is more music in these 12 minutes?

Christopher Nolan&#39;s &#39;Interstellar&#39; Returns To IMAX This Weekend With 12 Minutes Of New Footage (http://www.imdb.com/news/ni58297529/)

Holy shit.

I just lined up the version of NTFC that came with this FYC CD and the one from the FYC webrip and they are completely different.

The one in this CD is closer to the one from the film version because it's the version without the high end string stem, you can hear the mid and low end strings but not the high strings stem that usually drowned out the organ in the fan-edits and official releases.

This should actually be the nail in the coffin for further remakes.

I'm still working on this. Haven't given up yet.

It's 12 additional minutes of behind-the-scenes footage, so probably not... sadly.

From Music On Viny's fb page:

"Interstellar Movie inserts standing by for production...."



:D

What is the quality of the OP's post?

Any news on up sampled 24bit edition? Maybe a vinyl 24bit 192kHz copy can replace that.

Yeah sure! No problem, I was going for total replication and really made zero improvements over the very obviously flawed original artwork, as i thought there were already like two billion FYC album arts for this. Did you make like a complete set with inlays and stuff?

Anyway, holler if you need any help with this.

Yes on the full set, but the booklet text is to small but unavoidable. Use a magnifying glass I get or read from a set on the hard drive. The booklet is reconstructed from the Digital PDF Booklet, sort of.
Also was wondering if Lockdown wanted to post the CD quality set?

Also was wondering if Lockdown wanted to post the CD quality set?

I don't think he has a scanner.

Actually, I think there's only one thing that's left. The original package doesn't have a booklet, AFAIK and the only other thing I've been able to determine is there, something i didn't make yet, was the inner side of this exterior which had the track-listing for both discs.

I've done that, but it's on the last page. Let me upload and send you the link and you can critique what I've done and make a better set yourself. :)

PM'd Helix, let me know.

Send over a vector or a high-res png/psd of your Spectre logo and what is the ATrX code thing? Did you do these in PS or GIMP? If PS chuck the PSDs over too so that I can keep the image sizes consistent with your preferences for them. I'll do the discs, front and back as the booklet is pretty much along the lines of the retail one(except it looks a little stretched vertically). And about the front, I noticed it's an inverted version of an FYC thing I did earlier, I wouldn't recommend using it but if you love it...

ok. the ATrX 0033-SSL16 is my own CD Code Catalog number to keep track. Sorry the back inlay is PSP.

BTW, what are you doing with this FYC anyway? Audio processing-wise

Cleaning the compressed distortion out and brightening them a tad. uploading covers.

Oh that's nice.

Thanks for the share. I'll compare it to webrip, hopefully this one sounds better.

I don't think he has a scanner.

No, I meant would he like to post these Tracks when I get them done? Which they're done but I'm waiting for Helix to do the Cover Art.
