Wanted: surround SID remix
Posted: 03/10/2004 - 9:37
After listening to Jarre's "Aero" and Bjorn Lynne's "Soothe" I thought: why not have a SID remix in 5.1 surround?
These days programs like Cakewalk Sonar 4 Producer Edition have built-in surround editing capabilities. You don't even have to have expensive Dolby or DTS encoders for DVD distribution: Windows Media Player 9 and higher supports surround playback in Windows Media Audio files. So, the technology is readily available.
Question is: who will be the first one to produce a decent SID remix in true 5.1 surround? It can be any tune in any style, I don't care - as long as I hear distinct sounds coming from my rear speakers, too.
