Sparktank, if you have some links to a recent benchmark or comparison of mp3 encoders, that could also help people to decide what is definitely to avoid vs. what is generally preferred. (Haven't been following closely the 'mp3 encoders war' for many many years now, not to say testing them, so don't feel like recommending any in particular :))

Well I have always used dbPoweramp Pro (http://www.dbpoweramp.com/professional.htm)for MP3 ripping but from now on I am gonna use EAC (http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/) to rip to FLAC then Lamedrop (http://www.rarewares.org/mp3-lamedrop.php) to convert the files to share with non-flac collectors.

Afaik, dbPoweramp [Pro] at least in its recent versions is among the good n' easy tools for ripping & converting. The guys behind the software are pretty much involved with AccurateRip technologies (tip of the top!) that ensure error-free copies. Don't know about what mp3 encoder (and which parameters) it supports though. EAC is of course a good reference yet can prove hard to configure properly (and thus can lead to 'disasters' too).

I use dbPoweramp for rip and/or convert. I have installed a cracked version of dbPoweramp reference 13.2 edition and convert to mp3 using lame 3.97, helix or FHG encoders. It also supports FLAC & APE.
And I'm very happy with this program because does well the job and it's easy to use.

agreed.... :D

The reference converter is now at 14.1, some nice changes since then.
Haven't read them all, but I've updated since then :D

What if i update to the latest edition. Will i lose the privilege of this cracked version and stick with only a trial version?
Maybe it is best to leave it as it is:)

unofficially: yes.

we did not have this conversation

It all depends if new features, bug fixes and quality improvements (if any) are worth the hassle of updating and, well well well, performing any other wicked action.
Could be worth reading the changelog if available since it might state something along the lines of 'major update version 13.2.1, fixed a critical bug which totally ruined the sound quality of lossless files as well as truncated 3.1415927 seconds right in the middle of mp3 files'.:tksays:

Hey, no worries. It takes a while to learn to use all the ins and outs. This thread is just a teensy part of the overall download forum. The main board has the threads and topics listed. The X-Films are fairly prominent now. There is First Class, the complete X-2 Recording Sessions, and a complete version of the first X-Men, all floating around in the first 2 to three pages. I do highly recommend just lurking a bit, and browsing the forum. There have been some amazing scores posted in the last few weeks alone.

Welcome to the Shrine. :D

Hello everybody,
I depend upon your good will to find a score by Elfman I have been hunting for quite some time now. The problem is my lossless rip for this one has only 11 tracks (where it should be 16) and the titles mismatch, so it's probably fake.
Thank you for your consideration

Took a little deciphering to figure out the formula to your problem.

I can have a look, as I believe I have it somewhere.
In lossless.

Thank you :)

ok, technophiles. I have a converter that gives these options
LAME insane 320....I know, not best, just big.
LAME extreme vbr 48khz joint stereo
LAME standard vbr 48khz joint stereo
High Quality 320 true stereo.

Any thoughts on these? Most of my library, well all but two scores, is already converted to mp3, mostly 320. I get that i can't convert those without losing quality, but I am thinking about future conversions.

LAME Extreme VBR sounds nice.
I think extreme settings gives it a slower conversion and higher "maximum bitrate".
Which is good.

but why 48kHz? Is it video software? Or is the material to be encoded a DVD sound track?

I have no idea. Just saying what the thing says. I converted a flac file, and got bit rates averaging between 214-224kps.

There should be an option for 44.1, normal CD standards.
48 is usually 24bit audio or dvd audio.

Does anyone happen to have DARK SHADOWS: THE REVIVAL SERIES (2CD) Composed by: Robert Cobert? Many thanks in advance!

+1 for VBR 'Extreme' :) (roughly equivalent to the V1 or V0 preset on recent Lame encoders, 220-250kbps) but without upsampling pweaze... sure, it should be able to do 44.1kHz... what do the resulting flac or mp3 files say in their properties or when played?

Hey guys,
i'm looking for Driven by BT and Cleopatra by Trevor Jones,
both in mp3 format and 320knopen,I mean kbps.

You can find Cleopatra here (Thread 69636) at least the lossless link still works, then you can d.i.y. ^^

Hey does anyone have Magnolia soundtrack?
It's not the score album but the soundtrack with Aimee Mann songs.

Thanks.

Yep. Any wish as to which format, bitrate, flavour, host? (fishy lossless or vanilla mp3?)

Hi.

Still looking for Master of the World / Goliath and the Barbarians by Les Baxter if anyone has it at all?

Cheers

I find my collection missing The Magnificent Seven, can anyone help me out?

Shoshot thanks for Magnolia!

ahh thanks , just watched the movie and really love the score , especially the cue near the end of the movie :)

That movie was amazing! Really well done. Even the blue lines of light grew on me (they're used as symbolism). I saw it in IMAX, and it was most DEFINATELY worth it. The train crash scene was longer than I'd exprected (good thing!) and the sound during then made me feel like I was there. I reccommend people on here see it, especially in IMAX.

Those blue lines of lens flare were so annoying. They got more annoying as the movie went on. But the movie was great and I look forward to the soundtrack release.

The 'blue lines' are lens flares that are added mostly in post production. Personally I think they add another level of reality to the night scenes. Also more importantly they are becoming a very distinct signature of JJ.Abrams, you will also notice the same effect in his film Star Trek.

wich, I pretty much hated. HATED. With a bright and burning passion. To the extent that his name attached to ANY project pretty much guarantees I will ignore it... :)

Finally, a soulmate! :D
I hated Abrams Star Trek film too.
I still don't get why this guy has that god-like status. Nothing he has done so far justifies it.
His Mission Impossible movie was nowhere better than the other two that came before it.

It is because of the Lost thing. He has this high-concept rep now, and fanboys just love that. I think it is just too gimmicky. lost was cool enough. I saw the first half of the first season. I was CONVINCED it would be cancelled forthwith, and did not keep up. So, I saw a few here and there. Never saw the end. I survived. :)

guys you have it all wrong. The Abrams Star Trek movie was awesome,one of the best Trek movies ever made.
Lost just sucks, I never got into it.

You have to be kidding me. The mind-numbingly stupid story alone, which made not a lick of sense in the first place, was enough for me to hate it with a passion.
The scene with the two Spocks was just the cherry on top. What a waste of a good cast.
Only saw the pilot of Lost. It was good enough but didn't make me wanna see the rest of the series.

REALLY? really? VULCAN..GONE. TREK HISTORY...GONE. ENTERPRISE REDESIGN, HORRID. ENTERPRISE BUILT IN DOCKS ON EARTH...STUPID. WHOLE CREW MEETING ON FIRST MISSION WRONG and STUPID.

The movie may have been fine enough as a random sci-fi thing, but as a trek movie, it stinks. Bad enough to put me offa Trek in general. Worse than Phantom Menace was for SW....

---------- Post added at 02:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 AM ----------

It's just.....there is no connection to the classic series. This is not like missing the classic, or liking Next Gen. The new movie was just fundamentally **wrong**. It was not trek. And maybe, that was intentional. Now they can take the franchise anywhere. But, look. To those of us who are long time fans, this movie wipes out everything. The events in this movie change just about every major event to come. Including the first movie. Spock on Vulcan, praying? Nope. Spock getting reunited with his body in Trek 3? Nope. Tek 4? Nope. Nadda. Zip. Cause Vulcan, and everything it influenced, is gone. No Tuvok on Voyager neither. It changes everything. Picard and crew? Who knows. SS9, not likely. All of it wiped out on one guy's whim, and the studio's desire to milk that cow just a little dryer. Ugh.

---------- Post added at 02:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 AM ----------

I would rather watch Trek 5: the Final insult--I Mean Frontier back to back for 24 hours, than even a single 10 min block of the new movie. Really.

no no The Phantom Menace is one of the worst movies ever made, I have trouble watching it.
And I'm a Star Wars, well a fan of the original anyway. But I was never into Star Trek Voyager or Deep Space 9 so I don't know about those storylines that are connected to the Star Trek universe.

It is more like the...spirit...of the classics are gone, ya know? The new one just squished the ever loving life out of the premise, and replaced it with really overwrought cgi. :( Trek was always about story, character, exploration, and man's ultimate revolution, just happening to be placed in a sci-fi setting. The sci-fi was never intended to be first, at least in theory.

i did enjoy Star Trek by Abrams but I wasn't interested with Super 8. The score is another thing and that's what I'm looking forward to..

some things I didn't like In the new Star trek movie,such as Spock and uhura getting together, Old Spock,but overall I like it,I liked ther performances by Chris Pine,Bruce Greenwood and Anton Yelchin.
The music was also good.
But to me the best Trek film is The Wrath Of Khan.

Not so much. Some VERY talented writers worked on it, including many from the original series. In some ways, it was kiddified, but enerally it had more imagination and reach than the original. Cool music too. And yes, all of the original cast voiced it. Also, it introduced a second comm officer, Lt. M'Ress....a kaitain..humanoid feline, and I think she's sexy.

Anyone know if green lantern's score is getting a proper release?

Isn't true that the latest Trek movie happens in a alternate reality?

That's a pretty versatile concept, and certainly more original than just a remake, as it opens place to a whole new of different directions, since it explores aspects of the characters which none of the other movies ever did because they took for granted that we already knew all we needed to know about them, but in a alternate universe events that never happened in the "real" universe (young Kirk-old Spock, implosion of Vulcan, the death of Spock's mother, Uhura & Spock relationship) affect and change these characters as we know in this parallel universe, and i find this aspect...fascinating.
In other words, sure the destruction of Vulcan is a relevant event, but in a alternate reality is different as if it had been destroyed in, let's say, Star Trek III.

If you've seen this movie and disliked it, that is a valid point. And while i almost understand it (it's just a summer popcorn flick afterall), i find the view of many fans that take Star Trek as sort of a historical document of a canon that can't be meddled, a bit silly

I for one i'm very curious to know how the stories will evolve and how these characters are going to relate in the next movies, without taking into account that is not exactly as we seen it happening in the other films.

If it were just an alternate realit that would have been cool, but it's not. The point of all of it is that the villain from the future, came back in time, and changed the events in "true" reality, thus changing all that had gone before. This not an alt version, it has now become the only version. History was changed in the actual Trek -verse proper. It is a time travel thing that causes an alt version of events to unfold, wiping out the proper time-line, and they did not "reset" it, so it's all fucked now....

Is there a promo score from 'The Proposal' by Aaron Zigman available?

Gotta admit though, i think it's the only movie that is a prequel, a sequel (with the old spock) and a remake in one.

The one thing in the 'old' reality I was very disappointed with, was the really stupid death of Kirk in Star Trek Generations. I still don't understand why Bill Shatner let that happen. Mayby they will fix this someway in the new franchise, within 20 years or so, when the current Kirk-actor is old enough not to die stupidly.. :) :) :)

Wrath of Kahn is also my favorite. It was about friendship and the opposite of that. With that lovely music of Horner (and even I discoverd later that Horner used a lot of Prokofiev, i still adore that music) . The movie overwhelmed me in theatre when i was a teenager. The same way that the new Start Trek overwhelms the new teenagers. Every generation has it heros...

old, old dvd rip... and a terrible one at that :/

I know I'm looking for a complete one as well.. no such luck, though >.<

Ah well, that's a shame. I have never seen the movie, or the first one, or heard the scores. But, I do know it is a very wanted item. Meh. One of these days, it'll be real.

Hello!
Anyone have this

THE BEAVER (Marcelo Zarvos)

If it were just an alternate realit that would have been cool, but it's not. The point of all of it is that the villain from the future, came back in time, and changed the events in "true" reality, thus changing all that had gone before. This not an alt version, it has now become the only version. History was changed in the actual Trek -verse proper. It is a time travel thing that causes an alt version of events to unfold, wiping out the proper time-line, and they did not "reset" it, so it's all fucked now....

Nah! - I just checked all my Star Trek DVD's and they're all still there!

Yea. Well in the end, doesn't matter. Writers can just ignore any movie they want. I am surprised I am so passionate about it. Although I am a trekie, I have been more a fan of the various fx...the models and such. Sure, I like the characters and mythology, but not to an extreme, so I dunno why this new movie bugged me so much.

Finally, a soulmate! :D
I hated Abrams Star Trek film too.
I still don't get why this guy has that god-like status. Nothing he has done so far justifies it.
His Mission Impossible movie was nowhere better than the other two that came before it.

I haven't seen any of his other films. But I loved Super 8. It was really good. I honestly reccommend it. It's unique, and it's nothing like anything out there now (Blockbuster-wise, i.e. Green Lantern [FLOP], Cars 2, First Class)

Like I said, I haven't seen Star Trek, but judging by the storyline (and how people seem to hate it), I don't see why Abrams should take the heat for it if it's not his script. He just directed the film.

Well, it is a confluence of talents....or un-talents. :D

Was there ever any extra music to Angels & Demons besides the "Water" track that's a free download in mp3??
Like REAL extra music (not "cleanest dvd rip" with "slight sfx" or anything)

Nope. I don't think so. Judging from reaction around here, that is still an unfulfilled "Grail".

Sparky, did you get that list I pm'ed you? Want more?

Another Question. I know someone here was ripping episodes of the new V. I want to know if the promo I am linking is from those rips, r is it something different?

That's a rip.

Beltrami never released anything from this.

No word on whether or not he or the producers plan on it either.

Yup, gave it a quick test. It's a rip. And bad. Not so much for fx, they are fairly well repressed, but it was at the cost of sound quality. Fades up and down, and static. Says 320, but blech. Too bad though.

Isn't true that the latest Trek movie happens in a alternate reality?

That's a pretty versatile concept, and certainly more original than just a remake, as it opens place to a whole new of different directions, since it explores aspects of the characters which none of the other movies ever did because they took for granted that we already knew all we needed to know about them, but in a alternate universe events that never happened in the "real" universe (young Kirk-old Spock, implosion of Vulcan, the death of Spock's mother, Uhura & Spock relationship) affect and change these characters as we know in this parallel universe, and i find this aspect...fascinating.
In other words, sure the destruction of Vulcan is a relevant event, but in a alternate reality is different as if it had been destroyed in, let's say, Star Trek III.

If you've seen this movie and disliked it, that is a valid point. And while i almost understand it (it's just a summer popcorn flick afterall), i find the view of many fans that take Star Trek as sort of a historical document of a canon that can't be meddled, a bit silly

I for one i'm very curious to know how the stories will evolve and how these characters are going to relate in the next movies, without taking into account that is not exactly as we seen it happening in the other films.


THANK YOU! I'm tired of all this hate over the new Trek, which I enjoyed a hell of a lot better than any of the originals. To be perfectly honest, they all put me to sleep. The new installment was the adrenaline shot to the limp & withered Trek arm that it desperately needed to stay relevant, IMO. I don't particularly care for JJ Abrams, but I believe he successfully brought back the franchise for a new generation. I can't wait to see what happens next in the alternate Trek universe, and I also happened to LOVE the Spock/Uhura relationship dynamic. There's nothing wrong with a little romance, but it's very sad that so much hate is out there about it either because it's "just not right" based on the originals or because their skins don't match. Um, a Vulcan and Human relationship makes it interracial anyway. Deal with it.

The trailers and the first reviews make Super 8 look like a big homage to Stephen Spielberg with lots of nods to his teen/children films of old. Not exactly what I would call original. Looks like a solid film though. I might check it out.

The problem with Abram's Star Trek was that he never watched any episode of Star Trek nor did he delve into the whole universe before production began (he stated that himself in a couple of interviews)...and it shows. He just trampled on the established world, tore it down and re-built it the way he wanted it to be.
His grade of ignorance totally appalled me.
He may not have written the script himself but it were his ideas from what I heard. So he IS to blame.

I like the new Star Trek.
I also like the older movies, and some of the original ST series. and little to none of anything after that.
just saying

You can not be further from the truth. All over the film there are tons and tons of references to all the shows, even in the slightest details. It's the new Trek and the only way to go movie-wise. Remember, another flopped film or series would've certainly been the end. And do you honestly believe that Abrams never saw an epsiode of Trek in his life?

And do you honestly believe that Abrams never saw an epsiode of Trek in his life?

Yes.

Honestly, I would have put the franchise to rest way earlier than, say, Star Trek Voyager. I've never been much of a fan of the movies.
And if that's the best they could come up with to re-boot the franchise than I'd rather seen it die in dignity.

On the other hand, I've never been a Trekkie. I could have lived with a total makeover of well-known characters had the movie been awesome. It wasn't. I actually felt insulted by it and that's what bugs me the most.

BTW: How did this discussion even start?

I think I'll watch the new Star Trek after watching SG-1...

I could probably live with the Abrams Trek stories...

Just CAN IT with the LENS FLARES and SHAKY CAMERA!!!

(NOTE - Apparently Abrams did the same thing with Super 8...which makes me less inclined to see that.)

Of course, if Abram's Star Trek reboot means the Next Generation will never happen - that's a good thing in my book! :)

I just finished the download and yes indeed it's in 320 yet the 2 track's still missing..has this one been converted?...

Apologies for the missing tracks. I will upload the complete version once I purchase.

please, I did not mean to critisize. I was just answering a technical question, is all. Please do not apologise for sharing.

so before this thing goes off again somewhere...i'll just leave it at that. :)

I'll just politely wait till someone added the two missing track :)

I just finished the download and yes indeed it's in 320 yet the 2 track's still missing..has this one been converted?...

Actually, I did convert it. It was originally 256, but I know most prefer 320. Would it have been better to leave it as is? I am a newbie at a lot of this, so please tell me what you prefer or if the quality suffers by trying to convert. I don't consider it being critical at all. I am happy to share when I can and I want to try and deliver the best quality possible.

I'm no way near an expert when it comes to that but one thing I know is if it's from FLAC there's a good chance it would be converted to a good 320 (If done right with a good transcoder/converter). Personally, I don't hear much of the difference between the 247-256 m4a converted to 320 mp3 (it's basically the same) - "to clarify that, it's what I'm hearing anyway" IMHO

Lets just leave it to those who have more experience in dealing with the conversion thing to shed some light ... lol

256 to 320 is bad, atleast thats what most audiophiles will say

It is a quality thing. You can take 320, or flac, and convert DOWN. But you loose quality. Once that is lost, you cannot convert UP. So if you turn 256, or 128 into 320, it is not 320, because you can't add info and quality, dig?

This is one of those I-have-never-understood things. Why doesn't a program like iTunes and the like tell you the actual codec? Why does it say something is 320 if it isn't really 320? Is the program just not smart enough to tell the difference???????

well. if a score is transcoded from 192 to 320, a program like media player will read it as 320,. I don't no the details on how, but I guess there are markers or something. But the actual quality of the music, the sound, will still be the same as the original source.

Because these programs are meant to play music, and they don't distinguish between real and transcoded bitrates nor is it their function, thus will only show you the bitrate you use to encode the file when you play it.
So if you rip a track from a CD to 320k, and the same track from a 128k source transcoded to 320k (NEVER DO THAT!), the music player will tell that they are both 320k, which is not true.

It's not a matter of 'smart', it's just (by any practical means) impossible and the best you or a software can guess is still a... guess.
Just as you cannot say which software was used to save my wonderful avatar just by looking at it, nor can you say how giant and colorful (or not) it was before I resized it and modified it in Photoshop and compressed it to save space.

One cannot "recreate" or "reinvent" out of thin air information which has been discarded forever (hence the "lossy" name - it's lost, forever, dead, gone, annihilated).


--- WARNING: long boring rant coming

• A visual analogy: let's say you intend to read Shakespeare's Hamlet but don't really feel like carrying around a 600+ pages book.

Well, obviously you'll have to buy an abridged version. You can decide between many different versions though by different publishing companies, and in different sizes. Let's see what editors have to offer...
For editors who want to sell such a "Reader's Digest Hamlet", an easy way to proceed is to shorten the original text by discarding "unimportant information", that is: erase any information which *they* deem not necessary to get Hamlet's story right.

[That's what lossy codecs like Mp3, Aac try to do: rephrase Hamlet's story to make it definitely shorter, yet without changing noticeably the story and characters and happy(?) end]

• You decide for a 256-pages version of Hamlet. Wow, there are two different ones at your local bookstore. Will you pick any one at random because "256-pages is 256-pages"? Let's see what's inside, right?
As written on the back of the first book, its editor Lame Publishing Inc. has hired a gifted scholar with 10 years of experience at summarizing English texts. The guy did his best to keep most details of the story, even side-stories of little interest, so as to fit everything in exactly 256 pages, and so that each act, interesting or not, takes exactly 16 pages.
The second book by CrapCodecBooks just mentions it is shortened to 256 pages, but you don't know how. Judging from the first few sentences, the editor probably asked his 5-year-old nephew to erase 4 out of 10 words from Shakespeare's work. You can still understand a few sentences, but most are just gibberish.
Both are two-hundred-fifty-six pages, same price, same weight, which one will you buy?

[That's the difference between good and bad codecs, good and bad software... even if both produce mp3 at 256kbps, as they were instructed to. You cannot really judge the quality by the bitrate or the size/weight. Still, you can expect more pleasure if you know that a clever guy did the job.]


• Now you notice a third book nearby which has only 202 pages, here again by Lame Publ. Inc. Its back mentions that another clever scholar (a classmate probably) wrote this abridged version, this time by focusing mainly on the terrific tragedy of Hamlet, leaving out most secondary events and characters that don't matter to the action. And indeed, 199 of the 202 pages are devoted to Prince Hamlet, and some highly dramatic acts even take 40 pages each! At this point, you realize that this version, even if not exactly 256 pages as you wanted, is probably the best if you want a high quality account of Hamlet's story. And it's cheaper, wow.

[That's the difference between CBR, constant bitrate and VBR, variable bitrate. In the latter case, our clever mp3 codec devotes relatively more space to interesting/complicated parts of the music, the ones that mean the most to our human ears... even if to achieve such a goal it has to be forgetful of minor details you wouldn't probably hear... and even if in the end the file size and bitrate is not exactly what you wanted in the first place.]


• Great! you are now the proud owner of "Abridged Hamlet" by Lame Publishing Inc (probably the 202-pages Hamlet-centric one, or perhaps the 256-pages one if you don't mind the slight difference in quality and weight). Sure, you enjoyed the story a lot. Some day one of your good friends tells you that *his* 320-pages abridged version is really great, because if focuses on Hamlet, mentions a few side-stories too, and is typeset in a beautiful fifteenth-century-like font and so on.
Jealousy... At this point, you decide you want a 320-pages version too, dammit. So you buy a blank 320 pages notebook then copy the text of your book in it, leaving a lot of white space between the lines so that it fits exactly within 320 pages. You just copy it. You don't add anything to the story (except a few typos, lol) because you have no idea what to add, you're not Shakespeare and you don't own his full text. You don't know how to trace characters in a fifteenth century fashion.
Basically, you end up with a 320-pages notebook filled with the exact same 202-pages story, a lot of white space, and a few typos of your own. A heavier book to carry, which costs you some extra time and money although without anything new added.

[That's exactly why it's pointless and even harmful to re-encode some CBR or VBR mp3 to the 'highest 320 mp3'. You add absolutely nothing, no extra quality, no new sounds or notes or frequencies, it's just the same music, only (hopefully slightly) degraded one more time and taking even more space than before!]


• Now, what if you'd pretend the abridged version you own is Shakespeare's original work?
For instance, a friend is eager to learn about Hamlet and asks you for the book. Would you say "oh, I have it, please take a copy from me" without mentioning it's only a digest you own, a castrated, more or less altered version? He might reply "thanks but I really do want the original Hamlet, with its 600+ pages, even if I don't read it entirely or don't understand -yet- all the subtle details. I need the original one."
Will you still copy your Reader's Digest summarized version into a blank 600-pages notebook to give him? I agree he would probably enjoy the story and be thankful for that. Still you somehow tricked him into taking a suboptimal, reworked version for Shakespeare's very own words. Perhaps he really wanted to get this nice feeling that he really reads *the* text, not a subjective or modernized or dimmed account of it. Maybe did he want to study at great depth the original language, or is paid to write a summary of it (summary of a summary, yuck!), or to find the secrets of Leonardo da Vinci hidden in the verses, who knows. All he has is, so to speak, a fake.

[So please, never, never encode lossy audio files, aac, mp3 or such, back into a "lossless format" like flac. Lossless means lossless, and as such you always get a (huge) perfect photocopy of the book, be it a crappy digest or the original one written by William himself, as you get a perfect copy of a degraded mp3-compressed sound. Lossy to lossless is a complete waste of disk space and does not bring anything. It potentially misleads people, bringing about the risk of a suboptimal quality and further degradation through endless re-encoding]

• As a sidenote, the concern about saving as much quality and authenticity as possible is not just a matter of psychology, of feeling, of "useless authenticity that nobody can truly hear/understand".
Think about that: many great books from the antiquity were already quite rare in their time, and are now lost forever, burnt, lost, reused for (toilet) paper... Some of them actually survived to some extent although as imperfect copies, incomplete translations or shortened versions. Unfortunately, copyist monks with shaky hands and personal tastes were invented before digital copy machines - and some pieces of art in their true form have faded away forever. In many cases we still know at least a bit about their content - not all of it, not exactly or perhaps were they encoded in some secret language that nobody uses anymore.

[The same applies to music : lossless copies of original, authentic materials are so to speak perfect archives.
No need to worry about quality, to debate endlessly on forums, to track errors or missing bits of audio: lossless retains the original content. So-called proper lossless is very like owning the rare original.
It comes at a price: bigger files. It brings you one valuable thing: peace of mind.
Maybe one day a disc will get out of print or turn so rare that it's insanely expensive... Such a piece of art will only survive, be available and forever enjoyable through a lossless rip... rather than as a crappy 'mp3' noisy file full of clicks, echoes and missing bits due to generations of encoders in the hands of unaware users, various buggy software having eaten bit by bit, mouthful by mouthful, conversion after conversion the true sound of music.]


• On a more personal and 'philosophical' aspect - thus not to be taken too seriously - I occasionally read people offering 'not optimal' copies (...because it sounds good enough to them, because that's all that exists so far, or for any other reason). Such benevolent community members can be harmed, or puzzled, or made angry due to the other guys' expectations ("no lossless? pweeaz" "why only 128kbps?" "do you have the log file?" "where is my coffee?" etc.).
Agreed, sometimes such high-profile requests are kind of dry, ungrateful or rude - or so they sound (no pun intended).
Yet one has to admit too that not everybody has the same taste, needs or expectations whether insane or sensible. Some people (anal-retentive or with big hard disks - yep, that's two 's') just neeeeeeeed to have the tip-of-the-top, even if they don't fully enjoy it, so as to make sure they enjoy it the best they can.
What's good for me with my ears on my electronic device today perhaps sounds strange or does not work on yours tomorrow. Sharing is a matter of... sharing, not pushing oneself onto others. Be happy with the best the others have to offer, be happy and thanked for providing the others with the best you can. ;)

Shoshot very well put indeed.

I think you explained this about as well as one person could in a few paragraphs.

This should be a "sticky".

Thanks!

Anyone heard about the 34-track version of Chris Bacons/Gad Emile Zeitune's score to SOURCE CODE?

WHAT IS THIS YOU SPEAK OF?!?! :D

Here: MxO Archive - Music Archive (http://www.mxoarchive.net/music.html)

Use it well.

Thanks, I managed to find that link yesterday. I was hoping someone had the one made by DeusExMachina. From how it reads, his version has all the songs connected into one continuous mix. I would have liked to see how that turned out.

ShoShot, that was a brilliant explanation, and I agree it should be stickied!

The difference between books and music, apparently, is that an unabridged book will be named thus by any reputable publisher, while an abridged version will be called that. You won't be tricked into buying the latter if you want the former. Both are clearly labeled.

From your description I come away with the bottom line being that there is no way to know (without buying expensive audio software) whether what you have is what you have. In reality it could be what it says it is, or it could be almost anything else!

Moral of the story, I guess, is that how it sounds to one's ears is the final denominator. If it sounds good to me, then I should accept it as is; and pretty much ignore what the bit rate is telling me.

Still in all, it seems a pretty lame way to deal with music (pun intended). ;)

game of thrones


YESYESYES!!! IF SOMEONE HAS IT message me a link please? :p


this looks promising and Yes! please include me in your pm list (whoever will have this)... :)

and great explanation by shoshot... :)

Of course, there is one other distinction to make. e are not buying these, we are getting them for free, and so take a somewhat Zen attitude towards it...

Love your avatar! Great movie.

P.S. I see the forum finally got ads! I usually dislike them, but I'm actually happy with them. Maybe the site could use a few more on the bottom. That should bring some more revenue. Just as long as they're not those annoying pop-up ads! (The ones that turn full-page when you accidentally hover over them)

????? What ads? I have none on my screen at all....

WHAT IS THIS YOU SPEAK OF?!?! :D

All I know is it's circulating in lossy quality, and seems to be final mixes from the recording sessions, probably complete, maybe just expanded. It uses the original cue names instead of some of the album renamings.

I am wondering if someone could help me identify a piece of music that I am unfamiliar with. I have made a 35 second mp3 recording of the intro to ITV's Susan Boyle Story in the hopes of learning what this music is from. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I haven't watched the movie yet.

I saw Source Code last weekend. It's a good movie but nothing I would rush to the cinema to see. Home cinema is ok.
The actors are good and it's moderately suspenseful. The ending is a bit too emotional though. The explanation of how the whole source code thing works is also seriously lacking.
The only thing I didn't like was the score. It didn't fit the movie at all. Too bad Mansell had to drop out of the project.

????? What ads? I have none on my screen at all....

It was active when I posted for about 20 mins, then reverted back.

Also noticed this morning that I'd reverted to a brilliant white forum, instead of the Timewarp version I prefer...

Someone is tinkering... somewhere.

I have never ever seen an ad..? And Timewarp stay just fine. Hmmmmmm

Looking for The Borgias by Morris and of course Game Of Thrones :D

@Babydoll: Not wanting to flare your Star Trek hate or anything but... a couple of pages back you said that in the movie they destroy the actual Star Trek timeline. Ask any physicist and that can not occur. Any modification to a timeline, even the slightest, originates an imediate fork, or if you preffer, the creation of an alternate reality, equal in every detail to the "real" universe (depending on what version of the universe you are, you'll see the others as alternates and vice-versa)'till that point, and then, due to the modification, different in geometrical progression of affected events as the time stream progresses. Basically, Star Trek does happen in alternate reality. But even if it wasn't, as you said, any future movie can return to the original canon. Sorry for the nerdy, and totally off-topic, talk XD

@MasterZPrime: My friend, about 10 days ago, i made a post in wich i told you i would check my collection latter that day, trying to find the score to the 1st season of Alias... and then i said nothing. Fact is.... i got home and i forgot to look for it. My memory is not what it used to be XD If another amnesia episode doesn't occur today, i'll look into that, unless of course, someone else has already provided that score to you. Sorry for the memory lapse. :)

Finally, TF Dark of the Moon's score is coming and still no RoTF Full Score or even a decent DVDRip. I ask to those with far more tallent than i, please, make that one happen. :D

Mac!!!!! How's tricks, man. You post so little these days. Meh, I am over the Trek rant now, moving on....;D

By chance, does anyone have the V. Club release of "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour - Volume I" (2-CD) by Bernard Herrmann? Please send me a PM if anyone has this. Thanks in advance!

Is this a joke? There isn't even a trailer out.

Yes, of course it is a joke. He is commenting sarcastically on how things keep getting requested before they are even released, or made, or like the day they are out, and he has a point. It is getting a bit tedious....

Puh, good to know. :P

Actually, I'd also like The Dark Knight Rises. Just, you know - when you get it. Also, I'm still waiting for the next Star Trek soundtrack!! I need it now!!!! I HAVE TO HAVE IT!!! PLEEEEAASE!!!!!!!!!!!! (With sugar on top.) :)

O_O THE JIG IS UP!!!
*jumps through a window*

Who's doing the next Trek score anyway???? The usual team for DK Rises?

Its just that....you know, the huge releases get posted, with or without requests. Obviously DK Rises will get posted. Things like the Game of Thrones request border on rude to me. Things like" someone needs to get this...". Then, go get it. Asking is fine, but it is like folks think this is an on demand servoce or something....

Anyhoo...

Sparky, don't!! we're working without nets here...O.O

Oh, yeah, one more thing - I'm still waiting for the complete score for Titanic. No, I'm not talking about some leaked recording sessions - I mean the full 4-disc score, remastered, complete with the keys to James Cameron's house. So c'mon - who's got it?

If your sarcasm is hinted towards the Game of Thrones request - perhaps you should look at the link before you spew your mouth. The CD release comes out on the 28th. I think we all know that. HOWEVER, iTunes has a June 14th release date. Curious, no?

So, yesterday, right? C'mon folks....

If your rebuttle is aimed at me, my sarcasm isn't aimed at game of thrones.
It's in general, I think I've done it before in this thread.
And it will happen again.
It's just something to do liven up the place (well, in a lol sort of way...but I guess not too lol-ish)

Kind of like William Shatner sporting nothing but Canucks logos on everything he wears except the cowboy hat when at the final game of Canucks VS Boston.

So, yesterday, right? C'mon folks....
Yesterday or today, it's still available, which is the point.

All of you wanting Game of Thrones please note, it is under Varese Sarabande, and CANNOT BE POSTED ON THE FORUM. Just saying. :D

That doesn't stop other Varese soundtracks from getting distributed via PMs. :)

Sparky, don't!! we're working without nets here...O.O

(I'm trying to find a picture of Live Action Family Guy where Meg jumps through the window screaming "i dont want to die"... bug GIS is failing me :( )

I did not say it could not be SHARED, just not posted. You'd be amazed at what goes on behind the magic curtain...wait...ummm, nah it's good. :D

A quick search does not show it up anywhere yet.

Someone must have it by now. I'm 93.6% certain. It's all a matter of waiting... but, since I am personally addicted to the show, and know the music from personal experience, the waiting game sucks.

I would appreciate a PM from anybody with a link for it whenever one becomes readily available. You will be my hero for the month.

I came across this in other site, has there ever been a John Debney music for Superman Returns? (rejected/unused/additional)??

anyone??

:)

Bugz...who did Returns? There is a complete 2 cd score posted, 50 ish odd tracks...

that's true, well there's this guy that said he had this cd's by John Debney? (it could have been just a typo error)...thats why I opted to ask it here as well if anybody knows of any

that's true, well there's this guy that said he had this cd's by John Debney? (it could have been just a typo error)...thats why I opted to ask it here as well if anybody knows of any

typo. its john ottoman, I've seen the complete score. I'd up it but I can't seem to find it within my archive of files o.O

sorry, I almost jump out of my seat for curiousity...

there is in fact a re recordings made by John Debney but not for Returns but for the Original Superman movie...

Anyone have the Michael Small score to Kidco??

Thanks!

Who's doing the next Trek score anyway???? The usual team for DK Rises?
If it's still J.J. Abrahms, it will still be Michael Giacchino. Aside from the fact that he scored the last one, he has scored everything (movies and most television,) that J.J. Abrahms has made.
JonC

Bugz...the original Superman was 1979, by Williams. I would highly, highly doubt there is anything for it by Debney.

Much like Silvestri's BTTF, Debney re-recorded Superman in 1998.

This time with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra.

It is Varese, so can not be shared in the open.

Ah. I see....

I've been looking for Debney's Superman and would take it if anyone had it to share. Please? And thanks if you choose to.

thanks babydoll, i've been in that thread and just about days ago i even requested a pm from you with the 320. sorry i sometimes get a bit jumpy... lol

Lots of people want GoT now. Looks like someone will have to pull one for the team!

I have a question. The new Indiana Jones box set has a disc 5 with additional tracks. Can anyone tell me where these tracks fit into the scores for Temple of Doom, and last crusade?

I have seen one otr two episodes of the Borgias, but never noticed the score. I have not yet seen Game of Thrones. What's the musical styles for these two?

Return to the village seques into End Credits

the secret passage goes before Bug Tunnel / Death Trap

Indy and the Villagers goes before Short rounds theme

and Marcus captured/To Berlin needs to be seperated

I have seen one otr two episodes of the Borgias, but never noticed the score. I have not yet seen Game of Thrones. What's the musical styles for these two?

For Thrones it's ver much like The Tudors, I'd imagine the same for Borgias as well.

For Thrones it's ver much like The Tudors, I'd imagine the same for Borgias as well.

They definitely are similar. The main titles for Game of Thrones sounds almost exactly like the track "Wolsey Commits Suicide / Finale" from the first season of The Tudors.

I also would very much appreciate a PM for either score, by the way!

IS THERE A RELEASE OR A PROMO FOR STRIKING DISTANCE BY BRAD FIEDEL ?

I saw nothing for an official release.

The main theme of Game of Thrones:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7L2PVdrb_8

and the show is as beautiful as the intro is.

Oh, yeah. I've got nothing against the opening. I actually really enjoy it. Ripped it right after the first episode (along with the end titles, which was different almost every episode).

I really enjoy Djawadi's work, especially on Iron Man and Mr. Brooks. Just thought it was strange that it sounded so much like Trevor Morris.

It may go without saying, but if anyone gets The Borgias, or Game of Thrones, and wants to pm me, I would welcome that. :D

I'm also interested in those 2. Seems nice background music for reading my epic Robin Hobb novells on the noisy train.
