I don’t know the movie, so I can’t do any quotes.

I’ll just use the poem.

*ahem*

Don’t go.

Thank you.

Thanks you so much, wish I could’ve gotten it physically, I’ll make my own then

bless your kind heart.

I think that Organ Variation is the ‘S.T.A.Y.’ theme

Tick-Tock has that ticking sound like in the ‘Mountains’ cue..okay Tick-Tock is officially fucking amazing.

Um, and Day One (Original Demo) is similar to the trailer music, ‘First Step’.

Also, the deluxe edition ‘What Happens Now?’ cue is almost 20 seconds longer than the version on this Illuminated Star Projection Edition. I wonder why that is? It is only 2:05 instead of 2:26..

‘Who’s They?’ is definitely the FYC cue that we already have, but of course, in better quality. 🙂 Great cue.

No Need to Come Back sounds different, I don’t think it’s anything we’ve heard, has it? I mean, it’s not a cue that I listen to often, so I can’t say for certain.

"Do not go gentle, into that good night. Old age schould burn and rave at close of day. Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

It is different: This version doesn’t feature the wind sound effects the Deluxe version has. This one’s SFX free.

And I bloody love Tick Tock.

No Nee To Come Back sounds the same to me, it’s nothing new.

What Happens Now? seems to be shorter because it’s missing the ambient nature sounds at the end. Beautiful cue either way. I think this is the version used in the film, which cuts off right when Cooper opens his eyes, and the version on the deluxe edition is the one that concludes the end credits, fading away with those nature sounds. Or maybe the credits end early too, and the nature sounds are just part of the album experience. I like that, actually. It’s nice to have both to eventually put together a complete edit.

Who’s They? is the same as the FYC cue, yeah.

Murph is really beautiful, wow. Basically the "complete" version of I’m Going Home, building to a stunning climax like the end of Detach. Very interesting. I wonder why it’s called Murph though. I never associated this theme with her character….

Organ Variation is just more of the "main" theme, from the messages scene.

Day One is basically the Day One from the original album but without an organ part.

Tick-Tock is a stunning extension of Mountains… wow.

And I bloody love Tick Tock.
And, I knew that that cue was different, I knew there was something different about it, but I really didn’t know what was so different about it.

Mountains was my all time favorite cue from this score BEFORE it was cool. I liked it before I saw the film, and I saw the film very early, a day before it was officially released.

Tick-Tock will provide more for edits for the film version of No Time For Caution, am I right? Wishful thinking I guess. I’m sure we’ll get a perfect version eventually. I have never seen such a controversy of a single piece of music in a long time. I guess that must be a very good sign..

Thanks for sharing this FLAC, Lockdown. I truly appreciate it.
It’s also interesting how many LESS thanks and replies I get when I publicly post the link, isn’t it?

Tick Tock is epic!

He was already dealt with.
We don’t need to stir up settled dust again.

It made my heart skip a beat.

I’m making my own extended mix of that one: Day One Dark, with Tick Tock and No Time for Caution, almost 12 minutes 😀

That’s when Prof. Brand dies

And I will wait until I have mine in hand tomorrow to listen. But thanks for the upload.

Pretty sure he was given a warning about reposting people’s work.
If he did it again, he’d get a temp. ban, if he doesn’t already have one.

The last time he was posting, it caused everyone here to have a hissy fit.
The mods got really pissed about it.

So until he actually, literally does anything, there’s no reason to go taunting beforehand to provoke anything that has not happened yet.

Great job jason! you beat me to the cover making…. lol.

Now, I’m going to try to make a boxed set cover…. hopefully you’re all pleased with my attempts.

"Tick tock" is a gem. I wonder if some of it was intended for the lander ship riding the ‘Gargantua’-induced tidal wave.

Tick-Tock is a nice suite version of Mountains which half makes up for no ‘Quantifiable Connection’ 🙂

We still have the "fixed" version to keep us until March.

Late Feb or first week of March.
BD’s usually are found earlier than shelf date.
Sometimes a whole month early or 2 months early (Country-dependent; Lone Ranger and Malificent were available from UK BD’s long before USA had them out).

This is the cue that sold me on the score, long before any official album releases, deluxe editions, etc. I don’t know what it is about this score but I love it a lot more than other Zimmer scores even though it’s far more minimal than his previous efforts. Philip Glass’ influences tickle me. When I hear this score I can only explain it as Hans Zimmer meets Philip Glass.

Thanks!

Murph track is amazing in 8:00 minute

yes

Still, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR UPLOADING. There are great things here, I’m just shocked that Quantifiable wasn’t included.

"No Need to Come Back" comes before "A Place Among the Stars".

yes

You have Who’s They in the wrong place though
it should be after Dust

also place Among the Stars and No Need to Come Back should be switched as well

I have to say though, 3 separate releases within a period of 2 months? Bizarre… Plus the exclusive MyPlay Direct thing seems a bit off given that they only ship it to the US… Definitely glad that it’s out there though!

…like you would’ve spent it in the first place…

March 10th: Interstellar Blu-ray (http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Interstellar-Blu-ray/77552/)

When I opened mine, it had Zimmer’s used toilet paper, I was so excited to find that in my box.

It made my heart skip a beat.

Those have to be the most hilarious things I’ve read in the last week 😀

Front Cover:

still a work in progress.

The "Tick-tock" and "Murph" suites on CD2 are so incredible, I vote the 2CD (http://www.myplaydirect.com/interstellar-soundtrack/interstellar-soundtrack-illuminated-star-projection-edition/details/33155828?current_country=US) as best listen/HD digital deluxe (http://www.hdtracks.com/new/interstellar-original-motion-picture-soundtrack-deluxe-version) as best representation (the last track on the FYC being trashed).

I know.

But torrent sites have full bluray downloads ahead of shelf time.

Perhaps I speak too fast for this forum.

I, and a few others here, will have early access to the full bluray, or at least a remux (big word) before the shelf date.

A few here were already been posting end credits from full BD’s or remuxes by the time I got around to finishing my download.
I’ve noticed quite a few releases ahead of their time, where I would have considered it.

So, when I said "BD’s usually are found earlier", it’s because they are.

In some cases, BD’s get released in the UK ahead of other countries (like we had with Lone Ranger and Malificent)
But that won’t be the case with Interstellar.
But, it may be the case with future, undetermined movies.

There will be BDrips ane BRrips and the sort.
I guarantee most of them will have lossy DTS core only.
From public trackers (aka public torrent sites).
It may be high quality, but most people on this forum will make the mistake of using the core audio.

Lockdown got tickets to the go see the Academy Awards and gets to keep any undrunk glasses of water or spritzers.
We’re all fighting who gets to go with him and get Zimmer’s used napkins that touched his lips.

you sonnofa….

i’ll trade you the DVDscreeners Ellen DeGeneres will throw out to the audience for one her (Fey’s) dainty napkins.

Not the ones that touches her lips, but the ones that she uses to wipe her sweat.
:naughty:

Torrents do get blu-rays early, I remember downloading Godzilla, of 2014, almost a month from release
This is really good to know! I’ve always wondered whether these early torrent links were fakes, but now I know they’re for real.

Thanks for the confirmation, guys.

Thanks for the confirmation, guys.

Real, but on public sites, just encodes for people with small internet (data usage plans or speeds).
If it’s under 20GB, it’s most likely an ecode.
There’s ways you can tell before you download, and all the crap in the title is a giveaway (x264; "x264" is the open-source, freeware encoder for H264/AVC formats).
1080p doesn’t always mean it’s bluray. It’s the same resolution, but can also be an encode which is using the 1920xXXXX resolution (most of the time 1920×800 with bars cropped or if the aspect ratio is 1.78:1, then it’s 1920×1080 with bars cropped because there are no bars).
And most of the time, it’s a smaller file if you use the lossy DTS core only.
And most people on public sites don’t know or don’t care what they get as long as they get it.
Which why DVDscreeners and HDcams are so popular.

But, with public trackers, always go with a name you can recognize (the uploader, the scene/group/release etc) so you know it’s not fake.
If it’s archived in .rar / .zip / .7z or other, it can be two things:
Either it’s fake with viruses (single archive, one .rar).
Or if it’s in multiple compressed files (hundreds of .rar’s), then it’s from a scene group (or whatever) that distributes on Usenet services, which sharing by compressed archives is more friendly with password protection. In principle, the distribution should be similar to torrenting, in parts and pieces rather than a singular, downloading file (like some really poor, free file-sharing hosts with no option to resume broken downloads).
"no-rars" is something to look for, that takes the original shared encode that was once archived but now just a single file with no extraction necessary.

But, then on public trackers, you’re likely to support some groups/scenes that just take other people’s work and claim it as their own.
If you look at TorrentFreak, there’s some articles about Pirates on Pirates crimes going on. One group cracks a video game and has a crack available, while a second group comes along and reverse engineers the first crack and repack it and rename it all as their own original work. etc etc politics. :rolleyes:

.wmv are also viruses, especially if it just got into theaters or is ABOUT to get in theaters.
No one uses WMV for movies except where it was a digital download that has been stripped of it’s DRM (which doens’t need to happen; as in why share a digital download from the redeemable coupons you get when you buy the movie when you download better encode; digital downloads are mainly DRM-stripped on user-side so they can share on their devices with friends and family, not for a whole community).
Everyone uses .MKV, .MP4, or .AVI.

.exe is a dead give away as well. :rolleyes:

That should be good for now.
Back on topic, my mp3 player is going to be flooded with nothing but Interstellar. :laugh:

Both my parents were morse code interceptors in the Army in the 90’s

Well opened the box and had my dad look at the "stars"

He confirmed the message is "STAY" 😀

It’s ok. I’m not going to scold you or say what’s wrong with you? like some other people I know in this thread would. As if it’s abnormal to see a movie only once. I’ve still only seen it once. My plan was to see it at the nearest legit 70mm IMAX theatre near me in Januray, which is 2 hrs away. Sadly, I don’t see that happening as I’m still unemployed at the moment. So it’s fine that you haven’t seen it. Plenty of people still haven’t.

Then I’m confused why you had to point out the release date for the movie?
Seems like you misinterpreted my previous post?

How bad would it have been if after all this controversy on the release and the decodable message literally had nothing at all to do with the film’s plot, or related to it at all.

You get used to it here.
Shrine: "It’s a different rythym."

I like how Mega doesn’t give you any readouts or stats about how many times your file has been downloaded.
The only thing I really care about is that the thread gets bumped once in a while the links don’t go dead.

The polls are harder to maintain.

I know you as a big John Powell fan. That man would not be where he is today without Zimmer. So you should definitely give Maestro Zimmer a chance

Imperfect Lock is snazzy.

It’s easier for me to list the slate numbers than it is to type up the actual cues. You should download the FYC.

1m01, 2m08, 3m10, 3m12, 4m16b, 4m17, 5m23, 6m24, 25, 26, 7m27, 7m30, 8m31 and 8m32.

Interesting approach.
Looking at it that way, it would be easier to learn new music as apposed to the multiple re-naming albums go through.

Validation (logically).

I never cared about the slates before. They didn’t mean anything to me.

1m01, 2m08, 3m10, 3m12, 4m16b, 4m17, 5m23, 6m24, 25, 26, 7m27, 7m30, 8m31 and 8m32.
No offense, but how is he going to know the cues you’re talking about since he probably hasn’t downloaded the FYC…we are in the official OST after all, and that’s all he’s downloaded..probably.

It’s one of the reasons I am always searching for slates….it just makes organization so much easier

No offense, but how is he going to know the cues you’re talking about since he probably hasn’t downloaded the FYC…we are in the official OST after all, and that’s all he’s downloaded..probably.

You should have quoted me specifiaclly where I said he should download the FYC 😉

That’s nothing. I once got a notification accusing me of downloading either child pornography or illegal films. Since it was the latter, I had to electronically sign this page that basically said "yes, I’ve been illegaly downloading music and movies and I promise to never do it again". Slap on the wrist. I’ve since learned how to cover my tracks and continue to torrent. Plus my IP address is different since I moved

Canada just joined the frontlines of ISP emails about piracy, effective this year.

All the more reason to avoid public trackers (public torrent sites).
The default settings for you torrent client reveal everything about you and your downloading, but changing them will limit how fast you download something too.
Catch 22. Catch a thief.

They’ll keep sending you emails.
Google your ISP and piracy warnings to see what’s going on for your country/state/province/island/rock.

There’s something about a "3 strike policy" that’s supposed to be effective but studies are showing that it hasn’t slowed down piracy one bit.

ISP’s will send out emails, but they’re not really up to following through with lawsuits.
It’s a decent alternative than getting served by the studio behind the film you are charged with pirating.

Ya that was the cherry on top of my morning for that day. My heart stopped beating and I was sweating out of every orifice on my body. I’m glad I was able to choose the "I’ve been illegally downloading" option, as I certainly was not going with the first one.

You should still really look up your place of living and what’s going on in the news.
For all we know, 3 strikes with you and your ISP sues you for insane amounts of money.

Piracy laws are different today than they were just a couple years ago with ComCast.
Do a good google search.
And check TorrentFreak (http://torrentfreak.com/) for news on piracy and anti-piracy battles.

Rules from state-to-state differ, as do countries and provinces, etc.

I know! My mum called me and was like "what is this?" And she read is aloud and I was, literally standing there, shitting my pants. And from then on… I haven’t downloaded a movie since… only music

I download a film, watch it, delete it right after I’m done watching, and then put it on my list to buy if I really enjoyed it.

One song too short,
One movie too long.
He was a good sport,

Avoid early-leaked music like Guns’N’Roses next album that hasn’t been released yet.
Commerical leaks of "regular" music artists make the news way more than Interstellar FYC ripped from the Guild site.

So disappointed this didn’t win tonight.

I knew it was going to be something sappy that wins.
No one likes sci-fi, adventure, horror, or comedy.

It always has to be something light.
I think the only voters are really old people from really old generations and women.

Champaign, coolers, and a bloody mary.

No one drinks beer at these things.

Disclaimer: Just a guess.

I knew he wouldn’t. It’s only the best score of the year, why on earth should it win? 🙁

Sounds like he knew he wasn’t going to win which confirms it’s an inside job.

I could be wrong, but it seems to me that it’s mostly just politics. Very little to do with who -should- win. Again, I could be wrong but that is my perception.

Obviously it’s ripped from Lockdown’s CDs as it is exclusive to the 2 CDs

However, I highly doubt this will stay as a CD exclusive for very long.

If there were plans for digital release, it would be out already. Or there would be news about it (usual music forums).

The only thing digital stores can do is rip the CD and provide 16/44.1, much like a lot of digital stores do.

It would be a pretty nice surprise if they provided 24/48 digital sales though.

If only they’d put as much effort into the recording and mastering…

This project seems like it was outsourced to MyPlay, who have the exclusive licences to the tracks they got.
WaterTower wouldn’t really welch on their contract with MyPlay and sell the masters for the Light Project for HDtracks and Qobuz to sell the limited edition in digital formats.

Milking or not.

I got it off the RCP server, where else?

But, to be nicer, you honestly answered your own question, buddy. It’s sourced from the discs themselves. I ripped, tagged, zipped, and uploaded the hour I got this box set. You’re welcome. What’s your favorite new track?

I like Tick-Tock

However, I highly doubt this will stay as a CD exclusive for very long.

MyPlay exclusives are exclusive to MyPlay

Thanks for another illuminating response, eaglesfan

It’s true though. Don’t knock it til you try it.

Tick-Tock

Murph…11 epic minutes.

I’ll add in that I like "Imperfect Lock".

I don’t know the OST’s off by heart or in great detail.
I honestly don’t know if Imperfect Lock is just renamed on the Deluxe OST.

I feel we really need a comprehensive tracklist with annotations for each track.
Like printed out and well-thought out.

So far, there’s just a few quips here and there, but none of everything consolidated to a singular post.

I think the original cue name is called Imperfect Contact, that’s what it’s labeled as on the FYC.

Going off this: Hans-Zimmer.com – Interstellar (http://www.hans-zimmer.com/index.php?rub=disco&id=1256)
and my knowledge of the score… plus I have seen it 4 times (3 digital IMAX, 1 70mm IMAX)

Dreaming Of The Crash (3:35) – The opening scene
Chasing Drone (2:08) – When they are chasing the Drone
Flying Drone (1:52) – When they are flying the drone
Combines Went Haywire (1:54) – when the combines surround Coop’s house… bc gravity 😉
Dust Storm (1:14) – When the dust storm hits
Decoding The Message (5:41) – When Coop decodes the message and him and Murph find NASA
Who’s They? (7:18) – When Coop is told about NASA’s plan
Stay (5:33) – When Coop leaves… this is the version from the FYC and the film version 😉
Docking (1:29) – When they first dock with Endurance
Entering Endurance (2:40) – When they enter Endurance… this cue reminds me so much of 2001: A Space Odyssey
Rage Against The Dying Of The Light (0:56) – When they are in space
Down For The Long Nap (0:56) – When they are in space
Message From Home (1:41) – When they are in space… Dom says how Murph is stubborn in this message
Through The Wormhole (1:31) – As they are approaching the wormhole
We’re Here (0:43) – When they get through the wormhole and go over the data
Atmospheric Entry (2:45) – When they are landing on Miller’s planet
They’re Not Mountains (3:39) – EPIC CUE
Years Of Messages (5:26) – I cried during this scene.. all 4 times seeing the film
Afraid Of Time (2:33) – Murph and Prof Brand
Murph Comes Home (1:45) – When Murph eats dinner with Tom and his family
No Need To Come Back (4:34) – When Prof Brand dies
Our World (3:54) – When Mann explains his planet
We Are The Future (3:27) – When they find out plan A was all a lie
We’re Running Out Of Time (1:57) – When Murph is driving back to the farm during the dust storm (with venom lol)
I’m Going Home (5:49) – When Coop and Mann are walking around Mann’s planet (before shit hits the fan)
Coward (8:27) – shit hits the fan… was on the edge of my seat
Imperfect Contact (6:55) – When Mann tries to dock
No Time For Caution (4:06) – BEST EVERYTHING. To me, this is the best scene I have seen in a movie.. all 4 times on the edge of my seat… everything hung on this scene
Detach (6:42) – When Coop and TARS detach and fall into the blackhole
Eject (2:13) – When Coop is in the blackhole
Landing In Tesseract (4:42) – where the mindfuck begins… my buddy said to me after the movie: at this point I was thinking "wtf.. is this the same movie?"
S.T.A.Y. (6:22) – starting to figure it out… and if you notice this and Years of Messages are pretty similar 😉
Quantifiable Connection (3:31) – Traversing the tesseract… sending the message to the watch.. Murph’s eureka!
What Happens Now? (2:05) – Exiting the tesseract
Where We’re Going (7:36) – When Coop wakes up… goes to his house… sees Murph and the ending <3

Day One Suite (3:22) – Album edit of Who’s They?
Murph Suite (11:21) – suite from Star Projection: decoding message, entering Endurance, Detach were probably derived from this
Tick-Tock Suite (8:19) – suite from Star Projection.. basically Mountains on steroids
Stay Suite (6:52) – album version
Day One Dark Suite (6:38) – the movietickets.com exclusive.. Coward and No Time for Caution were probably derived from this
Organ Variation Suite (4:52) – suite from Star Projection… very similar to Years of Messages.. this is the suite that the track was probably derived from
Day One (Original Demo) (3:49) – This sort of sounds like part of the IMAX end credits… but not exactly. I think this is the track that Zimmer wrote in one day for Nolan.
Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night (Poem) (1:39) – DUMBEST FUCKING TRACK EVER
Chasing Drone (Alternate) (2:07) – album version
Decoding The Message (Alternate) (5:42) – album version
No Time For Caution (Alternate) (4:06) – album version
First Step (Teaser Music) (1:48) – yeah… the teaser trailer music… the main theme basically

Between the FYC, Deluxe and Illuminated.
Like what Cody did, but a detailed list of the sources for each track.

Not what happens in the movie.

Cody’s arrangement seems to be mostly the FYC tracks when an upgade could be used?
I don’t know the exact differences between the 3 albums to know where upgrades could be made.
I think the only upgraded material on his is from this Illuminated project. The rest is all 192kbps.

well the first section are all the FYC tracks.. except the last two which aren’t on the FYC for some reason… but can be found on the deluxe

The bottom section is the suites and I indicated from which album they are from…

That’s assuming it isn’t corrupted on the actual CD itself

Khannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!

I’d hoped that I could be strong enough to wait for my own copy of this release, but seeing it here (and seeing all the ensuing comments of excitement) broke me down. Listening to it now is just having that "scratch an itch" effect. The score is amazing; and this is, most definitely, my preferred version of the score. On the other hand, it’s only amplified my desire to have the set physically in-hand now. It’s also highlighting the short-comings of my sound system, but that’s another issue altogether.

It isn’t your sound system, buddy. The album has a very limited dynamic range; a result of bad recording and mastering – I’m sure it sounds underwhelming on any system. Which is a real a shame.

For those of you that have listened to it, are the extra tracks worth the price tag?

Never thought I’d be greatful to be unemployed – if I hadn’t been, MyPlay would’ve shipped my order and I’d be as pissed off and disappointed as everyone else for dropping $50 on this bomb of a release. The price of the vinyl will be worth it, I’m sure of it

Would anyone mind just posting the new tracks in a separate link? Seems kind of a waste to download the same tracks for the third time.
Here’s your separate links. 🙂

I wouldn’t count on it, dude. It would require some serious remastering work and a decent pressing plant to make this sound good on wax. This release was botched from the start, I don’t see why the vinyl version would be any different. I’m sad to say it, being a vinyl-only kinda guy myself.

Well word has it it’ll be different than the OST. I’ve been told this by numerous people. Furthermore, it would have been released already if it was not being properly mastered and pressed, don’t you think?

Well, that’s good news – I hope you’re right. Although the delay doesn’t necessarily tell us anything about the potential quality of the pressing. These days many, many pressings are delayed due to the increased demand on pressing plants. In fact, delays are more likely at the cheaper plants, as these are now saturated with major label reissues and the like. A delay with Interstellar could actually indicate that they’re using a poor plant (like GZ in Czech or MPO in France). The remastering itself isn’t what takes up the time, it’s the pressing.

Also, I believe it’s being released by Music On Vinyl, which has a rather hit and miss reputation. Fingers crossed, eh? 😉

I imagine like all the previous Z+ versions, they’re not DTS and just MP3 (maybe matrix encoded).

But it’s useless unless you have DTS receiver with the new DTS 11.1.
And you can’t use it on your own Z+ app either, it does licence checks to see if you actually purchased it and redeemed a key on it.

It’s the original remastering, not the CD rip. I’m not annoyed, because it happens.

A PLAGUE ON ALL YOUR HOUSES!!! 😡

Since we are talking about the fails of this soundtrack:
What’s up with this spike at around 15.7kHz on the interstellar soundtrack? Only some tracks have it but damn does it hurt my ears :/. : audioengineering (http://www.reddit.com/r/audioengineering/comments/2mszh4/whats_up_with_this_spike_at_around_157khz_on_the/)

Have fun with further listening 😀

Seriously, without going through every single comment in that thread (I have a life), what track is it, and which version of the score

Message From Home.
The HDtracks purchase.

That is incredibly loud. Usually never that loud.

The next track: "The Wormhole"
HDT again.

Not as loud as the previous track.

But, I think I’ve lost the ability to hear that frequency because it doesn’t affect me.
The reddit talks about some guys wife asking why he put a dog whistle in the music.
I can’t hear it, so I’m going deaf.

But, regarding the frequencies in general to the score, some parts do hurt my ears a lot.

Even Mountains has it:

I must be going really deaf (more than usual) because I don’t hear these clicks/pops.
With heaphones on.

heard easily if you turn it up a little.

Probably why I go deaf.
I used to listen to music loudly all the time on my walkman and the like when I was younger.
Plus a few concerts probably did irrepable damage.
By the time Marilyn Manson got on stage, I had no idea he was playing the very song I wanted to hear.
We were sitting in the nosebleed seats (cheap). I guess we got the brunt of the acoustics in that crummy place.

Going to change the system speaker properties to 44.1 instead of 48 and give the album a full listen again.

Playing back on Foobar2000 with ASIO4ALL drivers (most recent version) for output to 2.0.
ReplayGain set to "track" mode & "apply gain and prevent clipping according to peak".
22 – No Time for Caution.flac
Track gain : -1.42 dB
Track peak : 0.949219
Album gain : -1.68 dB
Album peak : 1.000000

The only DSP in effect is "AdvancedLimiter" which only limits audio if clipping occurs, but with RG enabled, that should happen.
System speakers also have zero effects enabled (Enhancements -> "disable all sound effects" including disabled "loudness equalization").

Try to hear these pop/clicks through headphones.

I did notice the first time I listened to the OST that there were some tracks that sounded like it suffered from clipping, but wasn’t sure if that was my system setup or not.
But, going to give it a thorough listen now.

———- Post added at 03:22 PM ———- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ———-

Well then maybe people just shouldn’t listen to the HDT version? Sucks to be them, I suppose 😀

They don’t touch the masters they get from studios.
It’s apparent on all versions. Regular and deluxe. Even the iTunes version as Tlyer points out with the clipping.

We all got screwed.

Same here

Even on the FYC tracks? That’s all I listen to, so if it’s not present on the FYC then I wouldn’t know. But if they are on the FYC then I’m deafinitely going deaf :awsm:

I’ll have to look for the FYC again.
It’s on one of the externals, and I don’t want to download it again.
Pretty sure the tracks needed to be fixed with Foobar2000 for VBR headers.

What did you do to it?
Technical details, please.

I’m going to have to download the FYC again. Pretty sure I lost it…

———- Post added at 03:43 PM ———- Previous post was at 03:32 PM ———-

FYC MP3 & OGG have it too.

Message From Home FYC MP3

Message From Home FYC OGG

"Afraid of Time" hurts my ears too when the piano starts out.

I’m going to have to download the FYC again. Pretty sure I lost it…

Used iZotope RX3, selected the effected part of the track, checked the frequencies using the spectrum analyzer and removed those frequencies using the remove hum tool (base frequency free, notch frequency ~15795hz (sometimes other frequencies also), filter Q 1500, harmonic gains -10 to -30dB)

Here is mountains after processing:

You win the internet.

Thanks much!

On those settings I posted earlier, I can’t hear crap on my headphones.
They’re Japanese, too. So you know they’re fancy.

:laugh:
They’re Sony.
Can’t find the exact model anywhere…. $45.
48kHz. some other stuff…

:treknod:

Thanks TechTuts for sharing your fixes, and for this description. I had a huge problem with this noise. I don’t have much knowledge regarding this and had fixed it using Audition by simply hand-selecting the affected part and Audition cleans it pretty well, but your method and spectogram look way better.

For people who can’t hear the noise, try listening to ‘Message from Home’ from the original release. Personally, I thought that was the worst affected. More than half of the tracks on the release are affected, though. The FYC tracks are affected as well. Hoping they manage to notice and fix this for the vinyl release.

Yeah, I boosted the high end on some affected tracks a few weeks ago to bring it into a range I could hear, and the score is indeed cursed. The Reddit page seems to have identified it as a stage monitor frequency, which seems to be accurate. When I was a kid/teen I could hear a high-pitched whine from televisions and "silent" alarms and such, but as people grow older those frequencies become inaudible. The only way to fix it is to literally knock out that frequency range, which also contains music. The "Interstellar" audio recording sessions are now entered into the recording engineer’s *d’oh* file.

Vinyl has it’s own issues (like fidelity diminishing with every rotation), so a remaster for that format might only help with a new batch of MP3s for the included download code.

@Sparktank: Maybe it’s just your headphones, I’m using Beyerdynamic DT-880 which (like all the BD) have a peak at around 8KHz..
For "Mountains" I’m just quoting of the reddit thread:

Try "08 Mountains" It starts at 00:30min and gets louder, clearly noticable from 01:00min on and has its peak at 01:30min – 01:50!

But as already mentionend here, "Message from Home" is the worst..just from the beginning on.

I don’t know why they didn’t notice these noises at production…It’s a shame. But the reddit thread is very interesting, the noise could come from a CRT (which can be seen in the making of at Youtube!) or other electric devices at the same electric circuit like the recording devices..
There’s also a guy who worked for a Hobbit Trailer, in which "Pippin’ s song" was used (LOTR #3 movie). In the movie itself there was a very strong high-frequency noise in that scene, but that (young) guy removed it for the Hobbit trailer – no one else of the production/mixing thread could hear it…people are too old in this business I guess.

Pretty much all of the LOTR tracks have that (eg. the shire, bag end, rivendell, the sword was broken).

Found the click in Tick-tock

Looks like they were careless when combining two bits of track

I can fix the other clicks/pops if you tell me what part of the track they are in

Edit: Link to fixed Tick-tock (https://mega.co.nz/#!hgBwkLzK!JzfgF90UBwkDUSClIHFiE_Dfa0DrBbjT8w71obg 8lVo)

No idea. I could also be deaf.
A friend was playing with frequency notes on his phone from the Zedge app.
He played one note that I couldn’t hear. His wife heard it, but not me.
It wasn’t until he put it right up to my year that I finally heard it.

I’m not investing in new headphones any time soon. These ones are already getting flaky cushions, but I can’t afford new headphones until it’s actually needed.
Even then, it’ll be just the same $50 headphones, too.

But, I still haven’t listened to TechTuts edition yet.
Later today, I’ll be able to play his version in a blind abx with the retail version. Maybe I’ll actually notice a difference.

Like the song of a thousand angels. 🙁
All happy and warm.

It’s beautiful~

Thanks for fixing it Technuts
saves me trouble

[Prof.Farnsworth]
Huzzahhhhhhhh!
Good news, everybody!

I couldn’t hear it a %30 volume level (of the total maximum I can increase volume on the PC) through headhones.
But increasing to %60, I can faintly hear it.

No wonder I can’t hear it when I listen to any of the albums.
My headset is always no more than %30.
I usually have it a %20 volume level.
%25 if I feel like living on the dangerous side. :devil:

When I listen to this score at %30, I feel pressure on my ears for some parts, so have to lower it or burst my ear drums.

So in short, it pays to be deaf to a certain degree. 🙂
[/Prof.Farnsworth]

He did let "uh oh" stay in the final mix of the Man of Steel soundtrack. For the retail OST, the film, everything.

it adds character :v

Wasn’t that supposed to be an easter egg? That was Zack Snyder’s daughter whose voice got picked up during the recording sessions.

And isn’t this the fault of the people in the sound engineering or mixing department?

IIRC, Snyder said it sounds cute so he demanded it stay in.

It’s an abomination.

IIRC, Snyder said it sounds cute so he demanded it stay in.

It’s an abomination.

Agreed, they should’ve removed it from Oil Rig, and could’ve let it stay on the end credits. But it doesn’t sound as if Zimmer or someone else mistakenly let it stay on the soundtrack.

Though, the story behind the "uh-oh" does indeed sound cute. This is from the Watertower Music facebook page:

"Zack (Snyder) carried his daughter on his shoulders on the scoring-stage. She was watching with total fascination. When Nick Glennie-Smith, our conductor raised his arms over his head to give the musicians the downbeat, she could help but go: "Uh-Oh!". Perfectly covered innocence by all the microphones."

mine are custom made.
they used to be peltor earmuffs, designed to mute gunshots.
when i opened them i saw they had a small car loudspeaker each. the max volume can make deaf people complain its too noisy.
and since they are peltor, when pressured (it almost hurts) against ears, no sound can be heard by anyone else, but once the earmuffs are clear, they can sound across the whole room, even with outside noise.

bought them on a flea market and i consider them the best headphones of all time.
dont know if quality is super duper crystal clear, but i think its close enough. all i wanted was complete, total isolation.
this thing puts the noise cancelling in noise cancelling. whoever made them, has my eternal gratitude

The CRT sine is at exactly 15,734 Hz (most of the time) and can be easily lowered with a notch filter.

Regarding the talk about headphones: many cheap circumaural, closed headphones (which I assume most of you own) aren???t well constructed. With a closed headphone, construction and material are everything so cheap material equals cheap sound. There are exceptions. And a word about Japanese headphones by the famous company with the four letters starting with "S": they aren???t the best on the market.

Those three basically are the same headphone. Their sound is pretty balanced but they aren???t for bassheads. Oh, and they come from Russia and are manufactured in China. Wearing them, you truly look like Princess Leia. But who cares if they sound well?

It???s the newest version of Audio Technica’s classic. It???s a professional headphone, it???ll show errors with immaculate precision but will sound well with most recordings. Great bass, perhaps a tad too strong. My go-to headphone for portable use. Oh, and it???s easy to drive.

Though they look pretty fancy. Bling all around 😉

I’m fucked if they get ruined or I lose them as sony doesn’t make them anymore

The cheapest I can afford.

I was making fun of emphasing on the Japanese name as I often hear people like to brag that because it’s Japanese or German hardware, it’s GOT to be the best product on the face of the 3 dimensional universe.

The last 2 I could probably save up for.
In time for Christmas.

remember, its custom made so imagine theres a small stereo loudspeaker on each side and a cord on the right side.

I was making fun of emphasing on the Japanese name as I often hear people like to brag that because it’s Japanese or German hardware, it’s GOT to be the best product on the face of the 3 dimensional universe.

The last 2 I could probably save up for.
In time for Christmas.

The Creative Aurvana Live! certainly is a good headphone. Its successor isn???t even half that good. The Creative was engineered by Foster; that company also produced the AH-D 1001 for Denon which is exactly the same headphone apart from some cosmetic changes.

But if I were you, I???d save for the Audio Technica. My Superman set wouldn???t be the same without it.

Talking about German headphone manufacturers: they are indeed pretty good. Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, AKG (actually they???re Austrian) are rightfully famous for several models they released over the years. Sennheiser’s HD-580 was pretty groundbreaking, its successor HD-600 still is one of the best headphones on the market even though it???s almost 20 years old. Though I would not ever say that all of these companies produce the best products. They have some models that are… far away from being good and certainly overrated regarding their astronomic price.

Anything and everything is nicer than Apple’s piece of shit earbuds. They suck.

Most smart software is FFMPEG-based.
FFMPEG can decode AC3 perfectly.

Though, since it’s a screener, ‘spect it to receive a DMCA takedown pretty soon.
The Hobbit screener didn’t last very long.

Those are good too. Though a bit light on subbass for my personal taste.

I told MediaHuman (http://www.mediahuman.com/) to convert just the audio starting at 2:43:57 to the end

Also Sennheiser HD25 1-II headphones are all I ever use lately

ffmpeg said the bitrate was 128… so i just converted it to 129 mp3

The quality should be 224k, that’s what the nfo says.

You reduced the quality of the track, even if you might think converting a 128k files with a 129k setting wouldn’t harm the sound. Believe me, it did.
I comapred it with Lockdowns End Credits and the quality on that is better.

You can’t convert a lossy source into another lossy format with a higher bitrate without reducing the quality of the audio.
You need to convert the lossy source into a lossless format like wav, aif, flac, alac,… that makes it not real lossless – it’s still lossy – but the quality of the audio is preserved like the original source.

How do you know the audio is 224k?

like i said the command line ffmpeg -i said it was only 128k

And sure Lockdown’s may be better.. he may have fancy audio software… i do not

It says so in the nfo. Go to the bottom there are the specs for the audio stream.

Extract the audio stream without any editing (maybe this will do it: AviDemux 2.6.8 v2 / 210115 beta (http://www.videohelp.com/tools/AviDemux) ) and open the extracted audio stream in Audacity (Freeware) and save the End Credits as WAV and all is fine.
After that, convert it to FLAC.

Probably raw ac3 is best.

Since this is a screener, it was probably scrubbed like The Hobbit.

Did the NFO say anything about any kind of watermark? Or watermark removal?

thx m8, for coming through, bow

Notes:
looks like my last prediction came through, this one is the smash hit!!
will this beat hobbit? only one way to find out GO GET IT!!!
was very complicated to do, a lot more than i thought, but doable.

Encode:
quality was nice, the usual problems, all very reddish and not that bright.
it was a pita to do, fixing the colours, so that white is white and blue is blue without drowning the others
also fixed brightness,contrast,saturation without going over

removed all kind of watermarks and for security i had to cut in the frames a lot, around 50 cuts were needed, all clear now
for the resolution i had to find a middle-way, 720×304 was too small and 720×320 looked a bit off, so took what looks best.
had to resync audio cpl times too, no worries all is sync.

will do me till retail
enjoy

:erm: Not sure what’s going on there…

If it was a DVD source, it should have been 23.976 telecined to 29.97.
Which means when you rip it, you should inversetelecine it back to 23.976 for clarity.

DVD screeners shouldn’t be all that different.

Unless it was an interlaced source.
But, still, you should be able to deinterlace to a smooth 23.976, original fps.

I know films are filmed in 24pfs, but NTSC dvd/bd are transfered to 23.976.

Not sure the reasoning behind the fps.
I imagine a lot of people will watch and say "it’s awesome" or some automatic bs.

The fact that such an ancient version of AVI-Mux was used AND such an outdated Xvid codec!!!
Makes me doubt the original encoder.
I’m sure they did a fine job scrubbing out the visual watermark details.
But still doesn’t say if the inauble watermark was cleared.

The 29.97fps is completely baffling.

Looked it up and saw some screenshots.
It’s deplorable.

Yeah, this guy has no clue how to export his edited screeners. There are plenty of other screeners that are at the standard 23.976 AND in 5.1, but he obviously edits in Windows Movie Maker or something that defaults at 29.97. The fact that his screeners are mostly in stereo make me think this is true, since WMM doesn’t support 5.1.

Give me those damn screeners! I’ll edit em 1:1 LOSSLESS!!!

I’m with DAK. There needs to be blurays for screeners.

It’s 2015. Handing people a DVD "for you consideration" is like handing out toothpaste and floss on halloween to trick’r’treaters. :notgood:

You do know the guy also has a bunch of 5.1 23.97fps quality screeners? Birdman, Imitation Game to name a few? They’re fantastic quality wise! The difference is for those he actually had the full-size source DVD while for stuff like Interstellar I guess one of the issues is that whoever he got it from gave him an encoded stereo file already instead of the full disc…

Also Interstellar WAS sent on Blu-ray as well as DVD, just that the encryption on these is like Fort Knox apparently.

No it isn’t… just checked

Very bizarre, tried twice, said file not located here due to host violation rule or something. I’m paraphrasing. Good that it’s not gone.

Thanks! its sound quality is pretty good! It’s much better than previous mp3 file which was recorded at a theater.

I think this should be included in the first post!

Just re-ripped it, here (https://mega.co.nz/#!Y8w2EYzR!3XvpHrzeHKkx0a5e4PebcSpY3elvOz4eOzgD0Bi 3Tug), removed the peak at 15.7KHz like I did with the soundtrack

It sounds similar to this (didn’t find a 15.6 KHz sound yet):
(be careful and reduce your volume before to the lowest level to avoid any ear damage)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSozmeBpRMw (don’t take it as a serious hearing test, because youtube compresses everytrhing a lot, it’s just an example of how the noise in some of the songs is)

[Prof.Farnsworth]
Huzzahhhhhhhh!
Good news, everybody!

I couldn’t hear it a %30 volume level (of the total maximum I can increase volume on the PC) through headhones.
But increasing to %60, I can faintly hear it.

No wonder I can’t hear it when I listen to any of the albums.
My headset is always no more than %30.
I usually have it a %20 volume level.
%25 if I feel like living on the dangerous side. :devil:

When I listen to this score at %30, I feel pressure on my ears for some parts, so have to lower it or burst my ear drums.

So in short, it pays to be deaf to a certain degree. 🙂

I can hear it at the lowest level (3%) of my max volume (Sound Blaster Z, Headphones) 😀

Nice headphones, i’m currently using some modified Fostex T50RPs with an O2 amp+ODAC, I occasionally use the AKG Q701 or Creative Aurvana Live. The peak at 15.7KHz is most obvious on my speakers (JBL LSR305s), almost unbearable on some tracks.

Probably botched DVD encode as well.
If he has so many properly IVTC encodes, there shouldn’t be any reason that this one didn’t get IVTC as well.

The program he uses is so outdated.
It’s been updated centuries ago, along with Xvid encoder.

I’m sure they look nice on the Galaxy S3 mini.
"fantastic quality wise" is purely subjective.
But only if the process was done correctly, which in this case, it wasn’t.

It’s 2015. Handing people a DVD "for you consideration" is like handing out toothpaste and floss on halloween to trick’r’treaters. :notgood:

The people judging what is the supposedly the best work of the year can’t figure out a BD Player. Seriously. The Academy’s membership is ancient, which is why DVD remains the standard to this day. You send out high-def discs and a good portion of voters will never see it.

Well "fantastic quality wise" out of screeners that are usually available. In many cases the full disc does not reach the pirate groups for whatever reason. This year, those 3 (Birdman, TIG, Theory of Everything) did and those are the best quality ones this year, 5.1 audio, full IVTC and all.

It’s not like popping a Blu-ray drive into the player is remarkably different from playing a DVD. It probably just costs more to author Blu-rays, and studios don’t want to waste the money.

Studios only want to spend time making a quality product if they think it’ll earn them an extra buck.

And I was wrong about predicting the Blu-ray would be in 7.1….it’s 5.1. Severely disappointed.

7.1 is not all it’s hyped up to be today.
There’s a 50/50 chance the audio will be 7.1 (strange setup) which is a real pain to transcode properly.

I’m starting to go through my archives and just transcode everything to FLAC that’s 7.1 (strange setup), just for legacy support.
Thank christ for MakeMKV.
But, just a much longer process.

Doesn’t look it was ever intended to be mixed/filmed for 7.1 surround sound.
Certainly not Atmos.

The Sound of Interstellar by SoundWorks Collection (on Vimeo)

http://soundworkscollection.com/videos/the-sound-of-interstellar
@4:35, you see all tracks are 6 channels (5.1).

I thought that Interstellar was mixed in Dolby Atmos, so I was a little surprised to see it was a 5.1 mix too, but I guess I shouldn’t be. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (apparently) had an Atmos mix, but the Blu-ray was in similarly in 5.1.

Sony might re-release it in Atmos.
If Atmos sales are still strong this year. I’m going to guess that if the sales for a re-release with Atmos is good, then they’ll consider re-releasing old movies with Atmos.
Concerning Gravity re-release (http://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=15426), that is.

In other words, all DVDs are 60i/50i (NTSC/PAL). Only HD formats such as HDC, HDSR, XDC, DVC Pros, hd files, Blu-Rays or actually watching the actual film can you have 24fps (23.976, or 23.98 as we call it in the industry).

IVTC.

You do realize that film-sourced material just gets frames repeated to match the 29.97 fps, right?
Video-sourced material doesn’t need to be telecined to 29.97.

You can easily IVTC the film-source to get back 23.976 if you convert to a different format.

Progressive, interlace, doesn’t matter.
Every "smart" encoder out there will IVTC to original frame rate, depending on source.

This DVD screener in 29.97 will look like shit with a lot of frames not suppsed to being there.
It will look a lot worse than interpolating frames to higher frame rates. Just watch for any motion and watch how things move.
It won’t look anything like the typical motion blur.

And I was wrong about predicting the Blu-ray would be in 7.1….it’s 5.1. Severely disappointed.

Once again….they DID send out BOTH Blu-ray and DVD screeners for Interstellar. The DVD was the one that leaked because the Blu-ray has insane security that the groups couldn’t crack.

Yep. I’ve worked in that part of the industry for 15+ years now, so I know how all of the telecine and editing conversion processes are handled and done. Whether it was 1999 or 2015.

So your whole post was really useless, as I already mentioned IVTC previously.

Just another shit thread not going anywhere.

Studios only want to spend time making a quality product if they think it’ll earn them an extra buck.

And it’s not the hardest thing in the world to operate a VCR either, but try telling that to your grandparents. Same principle here. As ridiculous as it seems, Academy members’ relationship to technology is one of (though hardly the only) reason for this Luddism. If anybody’s really interested, there are a couple of great articles on screeners ( https://medium.com/message/pirating-the-2015-oscars-hd-edition-6c78e0cb471d ) and the cost of Oscar campaigns ( How much does a Hollywood Oscar campaign cost? | Stephen Follows (http://stephenfollows.com/how-much-does-a-hollywood-oscar-campaign-cost/) ).

The DVD format is a 59.94/60i format. Standard defition. Sure, you can have a HD source that is 4:4:4 and 23.98 or even true 24PsF. But as soon as you down-convert that down to a DVD, the quality diminishes significantly and the media becomes SD NTSC or PAL (59.94 or 60i).

———- Post added at 05:36 PM ———- Previous post was at 05:30 PM ———-

Once you downconvert something, whether it is file-based or on a tape, you lose the original quality and framerate regardless. So a cross-conversion or an up-conversion can be 23.98, sure. But it will never look correct or ever as good or as high quality as it once did before it was down-converted.

That was my point. So what you said was correct SparktNk, you can indeed do that. But it isn’t true 23.98 anymore and it most definitely is not the same quality in video or framerate. Hope that makes some sort of sense. It works the same as audio. Once you lose that extra video resolution and those frames, even if you do re-convert it back it is not the same.

We all love this score, that’s for damn sure!

Not knowing either song, I can’t say for sure, but it’s probably just a coincidence. Hans has enough creativity without having to copy others’ work. I very much doubt it was intentional.
