Skyfall (Adele) Custom 5.1 Surround Sound Mix

Edit February 8th, 2013: I have uploaded the 5.1 mix from the Blu-Ray DTSMA track (now in AC3 640kbps) for your listening pleasure.

Hello! I thought I would share this with you all as this turned out quite well. I got my hands on the instrumental version of Skyfall thanks to Lilu. Link:
Thread 122532
I took the instrumental and separated it into 5 channels: Front left and right, back left and right, and made a dedicated sub-woofer channel from the instrumental. I took the version of the song with the vocals and put it into the center channel. So now, this is a true 5.1 copy of the song consisting of the vocals in the main channel, instruments in the front left and right, a dedicated sub-woofer channel, and slightly echoed instruments in the back channels! A surround sound speaker system will be required to fully enjoy this mix.

Edit: Original link was taken down, I am uploading a new version in AC3 format to reduce filesize to 22mb (from around 150mb), the AC3 is encoded at 640kbps. As a result, you can no longer (by default) play this file in Windows Media Player. VLC is the way to go. This file can still be opened in Audacity to view the individual channels.

Good job. Brings a whole new dimensionality to Adele’s already atmospheric ballad.

Can’t wait for it to open in the US.

I love that Bond song, can’t wait to see the movie tonight ^^ thanks for the 5.1 mix !

Thanks for the good job, but the mediafire link is dead 🙁

stunning !! impressiv work !! would like to listen it as well 🙂 but the link is down

i converted it into OGG 5.1 VBR 500Kbps max/ average 320 -> size 11Mo ….

I reuploaded the file with a new name and in a new format. Check the first post edit to see what has changed.

Cool, thanks!

Awesome! Thanks!

but there a, maybe, a problem

with my winamp the channels are inverted, the voice is on the rear

Thanks!

@darth2602 It is probably because Winamp does not use the correct decoders and/or is incorrectly decoding the AC3 file. Try playing it in VLC media player. If it’s still inverted I will upload a .wav version that will decode properly in all players. Be warned though, it’s 150mb for the .wav version due to it being uncompressed.

I have this version: Adele – Skyfall (Full Surround 5.1).wav (http://www.mediafire.com/?hzeiic5i8hn2m82)
