I honestly don't see how you could expect Namlook to approve of anything less. I kind of doubt it's a sales gimmick. If you do the math, 1000 copies, $15 each (or 15 euros, for our Martin) is less than 500 at $25/25 eur (he's cut the limitation in half from 1000 to 500, it seems, for most of these DTS releases -- and even the latest non-DTS ones, ie Gate Zero - Black Dust). <BR><BR><BR><BR>I would seriously like to see a good portion of the historic fax catalog rereleased in 5.1. But then, it most likely WILL be "fake" 5.1, since it was probably not mixed and monitored in 5.1.<BR><BR><BR><BR>Andrew<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>----- Original Message ----<BR><BR>From: mu <<A href="mailto:theendoftime@btinternet.com">theendoftime@btinternet.com</A>><BR><BR>To: <A href="mailto:faxlist@2350.org">faxlist@2350.org </A><BR><BR>Sent: Saturday, January 13, 2007 6:36:14 AM<BR><BR>Subject: (fax) Re: DTS 5.1 music - is it or isnt it ?<BR><BR><BR><BR>Hi everyone<BR><BR><BR><BR>                 i see some of the new fax cds are 2 - 1 is DTS 5.1 ? my question is , is this like a stereo recording converted to 5.1 or is it fully produced 5.1 music with panning between all 4/5 speakers ? i dont have 5.1 system but might be tempted if the music is made in 5.1 ?anyone tried or tested the 5.1 quality yet and do any of the 5.1 fax releases have panning tricks where it goes all round the room.Some 5.1 music isnt . . . its stereo masters converted to 5.1  , not recorded in  studio and sounds placed using 5.1 monitoring.Interested to know whether namlooks recording and monitoring in 5.1 , if he is then thats a BIG step forward.Though how do you then make a stereo version from a mixed amd monitored 5.1 mix >? i maybe in wrong place to ask this :) and shoudl go studio forum maybe !  but do wonder as i made music and  looked into 5.1  , i wonder if people compared the 5.1 versions and the stereo cd versions ? and noted difference.Leap forward or sales gimmick.I once setup eno style surround system ( bi wire secopnd set of speakers behind you to positives on your amp if it has twin sets of speaker outs on it and hey prestos , you have surround system with very nice and unusual 3d quality. <BR><BR><BR><BR>Ps i read somewhere 5% of people have 5.1 system in home ?<BR><BR><BR><BR>Ppsp  wouldnt it be nice if fax rereleased all their catalogue as 5.1 and even stuff like world reciever !!!!!<BR><BR><BR><BR>anyone have any answers ? <BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>faxlist mailing list<BR><A href="mailto:faxlist@2350.org">faxlist@2350.org</A><BR><A href="http://2350.org/mailman/listinfo/faxlist">http://2350.org/mailman/listinfo/faxlist </A><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR> <P> <HR> <P></P>_______________________________________________<BR>faxlist mailing list<BR>faxlist@2350.org<BR>http://2350.org/mailman/listinfo/faxlist<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
