Happy today because....

I arranged to get some of my better bootlegs remixed into 5.1 audio dvds.

Looking forward to the reults

I've never understood how one can take a simple stereo mix and magically transform it into 6 channels...

because i never saw anyone being able to turn a mono recording into stereo either...

I was curious also. So I arranged to send some stuff to see what he can do.
I'll keep you posted how it turns out.
TBH my AV amp simulates surround sound from stereo sources & it is quite good for concerts with all the crowd atmosphere.

I just thought about this a bit more.
Some DVDs of really old films have had the old DD5.1 treatment somehow.
All the old James Bond films for instance.
& then look at something like The Wizard of Oz. Is there not a DTS version of this?
I don't think the original had anything more than a mono soundtrack either.
Some seriously good gadgets needed there methinks.

Actually, this has been done quite a lot with stuff from the '50s and '60s...

By the same token I've also heard a lot of complaints about these fake stereo mixes. Unfortunately I don't know of any specific examples, and I've never had the opportunity to compare the before and after results.

TBH the sound on the James Bond (earlier) movies is not the best on the DVDs.

happy today... I'm home, and my cat ( who was in a shelter while away) missed me so much, he's not left my side all day. In fact, he's sitting right in front of my PC screen, and playing with the mouse!! wherever I go, he follows. It's nice to know you are loved.

Nice to see the critters again when you've been away, isn't it....
Well, we're glad to have you back too!

It has been a beautiful, beautiful day (weatherwise) today... the sun was shining, a gentle breeze.. inspite of mother nature doing her best to make things difficult, the raging winds, the 100 plus degrees not that long ago, the garden is awash with colour and looks lovely. The bees are busy on all of the flowers, the birds are bathing in the birdbath, ladybirds are seeing to the aphids making an appearance; seeds I planted just a week ago are breaking through, so my winter crop of vegies are on the way. A day to sit back and appreciate everything. Cool nights, warm days. Just perfect. Sometimes, it's the small things which can fill your soul and lift your spirits. such a lovely, lovely day.
And it  made me so happy....

Happy today because

...I'm gonna go see The Sting (1973) at an independent movie theatre (gotta love those...), and I'm swamped with the most exquisite music recommendations from friends, yay! Busy busy busy...

Tomorrow, (Friday) is our anniversary...17 years. Wow, that has gone so quickly, honestly. Second time around for both of us, but we are soulmates and feel like we've been together forever. Met at a school cricket match...both our boys played for the school... wasn't looking for a relationship, was quite happy being Ms. Independant. Well, that changed. We're not married, for no other reason than we never got around to it!! Nothing against being married. But, after 17 years, I think we qualify as being an old married couple huh? Probably go out to lunch, see how I feel when I wake up... but, I'm happy...very happy...
(and as I'm typing this, he, sitting on the couch, just let rip    ...oh he's a charmer alright!!) *laughing*  if you can't fart in front of each other, it's not true love..excuse me, I have to go...outside.. to get some fesh air!!
