ABOUT THE DC RESTORATION SERIES
The DC Restoration Series is a series of scores that have been personally restored by me. This is the culmination of many months of research to find an audio restoration process to help decrease the dynamic range of the music by making the quiet parts louder without making the louder parts even louder.

Some people will disagree with my technique but I find the listening experience to be better since I can now hear the nuances of the orchestra to a greater degree. I watch the spectral frequency display while listening to each track in hopes to clean up all artifacts and remove as much hiss as possible. I've also EQed everything to add clarity to the music.

I can go on and on about process, but in the end, it is the final product that counts.

=========================================
IDEAL WAY TO LISTEN TO THIS "REMASTERED" SERIES
For optimal listening enjoyment, listen with a flat EQ or minimal adjustments so that the higher frequencies aren't too crisp. This series of "remastered" works have been restored using flat-sounding studio monitors for optimal EQing and mastering.
=========================================


In memory of a great composer...

Likes, reputations, thanks and comments of my work are always welcome and appreciated!

That was quick, thank you for the link I think I'm going to be busy too with all this listening / comparing.

Lots of people are telling me that they will compare with their original CD or whichever version they have but none have commented on how different (hopefully better) this version is in terms of listening experience. Hopefully when you get a chance you can give me your 2 cents on this so I have an idea if I am heading in the right direction. Thanks.

Will do, hopefully at the weekend when I have more time, it will be a good excuse to listen to more Horner.

Yep, gotta say, bravo. Have listened to LOTF and Humanoids now and have to say, the audio seems crisper, more energetic and clearer. Maybe it's my ears - they're tired these days and not what they used to be, but these 'sonic upgrades' tunnel straight through my ear-bits and into my brain-whoopy-whoop reactor. Terrific stuff.

That's exactly what I think! The clarity of the string part is lifted!
Excellent job DC! Thank you for the effort.

My spanish is almost zero so I am guessing he/she is happy with everything. Something about the sound and that he/she is listening on a Sony device and has the original CD? Anyone wish to translate for me please? Thanks.

It's definitely louder. I'm not sure if that's an improvement (at least to my taste) as I prefer orchestral music to have a fuller range of dynamics. I can see this being an advantage in certain environments (like flying or driving) but I only listen to music at home with headphones. On the other hand, certain instruments feel crisper and more defined. I definitely appreciate your efforts and look forward to future releases (especially of scores I haven't heard yet).

Hi everyone. I'm asking the forum for advice. I have read the rules for the forum concerning what labels and music not to post, but as I continue this project, I am realizing very quickly a few issues:

- Though sending links via PM is a controlled way of doing things, it simply isn't efficient for large volumes of demands. Is there anything else I can do other than a direct link?

- As the project gets bigger, I am going to run out of online space very quickly. Any other suggestions/recommendations?

Thanks.

Thanks for the quick link. And for sharing, of course.

Unfortunately I don't have another version to compare it with. For what it's worth, it sounds crisp and clear to me, so I certainly have no complaints. But, most importantly, what a great soundtrack this is!

Excellent effort! :)

Hopefully, there'll be another album with more music available one day (see what happened with The Last Starfighter). The bootleg contains a number of tracks and takes I'd REALLY like to listen to in good (or at least better) quality!

And the maestro can't complain anymore about there being complete releases of his scores.

Many thanks for this, only just got around to listening to this; can I ask what source you worked from? I can hear some digital artefacts in the background - don't get me wrong it sounds awesome but just wondering what your source was.

My source was lossless but while working with it, I started realizing that most instruments sound clear but others in the mix sound like something off a bootleg (especially the french horns... they sound awful, but trumpets sound OK... go figure). The artifacts could be from my expansion so if you have a specific track and time you can give me, I can go back and have a listen. Thanks.
