Dolby Surround CD Discography

Help Support QuadraphonicQuad:
Kinda OT again - are there any Dolby Surround encoded LPs (or even more obscure - DS encoded prerecorded stereo 8 track cartridges or DS encoded stereo open reel tapes [there are a few DS encoded compact cassettes])?

The Dolby Surround Discography has been updated. If you happen to find anything that I missed, please let me know.
Just got this CD/DVD box set in from The Netherlands.
The DVD has 22 songs with Dolby Surround encoding in 48x24. I just did a basic 4.1 Penteo up-mix/decode? with it as that seems to produce pretty good results for me. Don't know if you have this in a Discography any place yet Mark (I didn't see one?)
With various Electronic/Trance etc. artists, here's the discogs page.

Some of these turn out really nice and surroundy and others not as much, but interesting to me non-the-less.

cool find pupster. What are the visuals like?
haven't even looked yet, just ripped and ran with it
Interesting that the CD is not encoded in Dolby Surrond. Don't know where I would place the DVD as the Dolby Surround discography is for CD'S and the DVD music discography is for discrete DTS and Dolby Digital but I guess that would be the best fit.
yeah, it seemed like an unusual one to me, wonder if there are any more out there like this?
Mark I have a couple for the Dolby Surround Discography,
one Natural Surround and one Dolby Surround
Wendy Carlos - Switched On Bach 2000 Telarc CD 80323 , cassette, CS 30323

I saw on Discogs Wendy Carlos - Switched-On Bach 2000
"All-new interpretation released to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the original Switched-On Bach."
Wikipedia also suggests it is a new recording.
If it is, how does it compare to the original?

Good question.
I think it fares well in comparison to the original quad album. And I only have the cassette from Telarc.
Wendy Carlos was not happy with her classic opus in SQ matrix quad ..and had The CBS Technology Center master that disc in CD-4 for her listening pleasure. But for some reason she chose Dolby MP Matrix , on this remake., which is still a matrix ?

After 25 years, synth technology had improved and the original Switched-On Bach was sounding dated. With new digital instruments and MIDI, requests for more Bach, Wendy re-recorded the album with new sounds and tunings. This is not a remix of the original, it is another interpretation of the same pieces. Read more here Wendy Carlos, SOB 2K Notes
Yes, I have wondered why Wendy Carlos seemed happy with the Dolby Surround matrix but not the CBS SQ matrix - the only thing I could come up with is that the Dolby Surround system has a standardized decoder, unlike the CBS SQ system (fixed blend, gain riding, gain riding + variblend, variable matrix).
Anyway, back to the discography...

Thank you Mark!
I just looked through the list of new entries (*) and found one I'd be interested in (the music is very nice and funky):
https://www.discogs.com/release/28755232-Laszlo-Bencker-Jazzcraft
unfortunately, it seems to be a very rare one. But I also recognized the name as being on an earlier LP I tried in UHJ Ambisonic, also by Sonoton:
https://www.discogs.com/master/805112-Laszlo-Bencker-Lady-Robot
Too bad they didn't get into more discrete sounding surround!
stoopid
is as nasty does
Looks like a labor of love. Thanks for the resource.
Thanks for looking guys. Jeff you always gravitate to the rare and interesting.

Maybe I did not put them in the right place. The other McGills are under the classical but i thought this one had multiple artist
Yea, I guess that works . The main thing is that they are listed.
