I was at the Audio Engineering Society Convention last October in NYC. One of the meetings was different 5.1 mixes played by the guys that engineered them talking about all of the things they had to do thinking in that 5.1 world. One of the questions that came up was specifically about how much longer it's going to take for consumers to pickup on SACD or DVD-A. It's already dead...the labels know it won't sell and don't want to waste the time producing these superior versions. If there's anything still being done, it's because of the artist's or engineer's love for that project and doing it on their own. It's really too bad!! -- Eric Seaberg Eric Seaberg - San Diego - [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Mac MINI server w/ 500GB external - Multiple SB3s and Transporter Tannoy and Genelec Bi & Tri-Amped Studio Monitors - 5.1 Surround Recording Engineer/Producer since 1971 - Member AES, SPARS, SMPTE and NARAS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Seaberg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7896 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45839 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
