SACRILIGE!! :yikes Ss. I shall tell Sangoma Annie you Edited her out. She will ell be Mortifeed...!!!!! :ugham: :
You’re no longer listening to the music; you’re in the song! Would this work for classical music? Get real! In fact, I should be doing the audiophile thing by complaining and calling this mix ‘gimicky’ but first I’d have to wipe this big stupid grin off my face.

Normally not my music at all but the surround mix is fantastic! Nice review here: http://www.highfidelityreview.com/destinys-child-survivor-an-sacd-review-by-sanjay-durani.html especially this bit:
Thom Cadley (QQ member ThomC.) mixed the Surround on this and many other great discs!
Would you like a list?
I was going to say yes but you beat me to it , thanks!!
That's 44.1k for ya..
"Brothers in Arms"
My buddy Chuck Ainlay spent about three months doing the surround mix on this at Mark Knopfler's surround room in London. Chuck has been working with Mark on all his projects for quite some time.
Anyone that knows Chuck's surround mixing work knows he will bring "BIA" to a whole new level of listening experience. Chuck described Mark's room, equipped with a full surround ATC scm-300 monitor system, as the best surround room he ever worked in. He was thrilled with the results he was getting from the masters and the system.
To those that think mixing from a 44.1 16-bit source will not yield any advantages over the original, consider this: D/A technology and quality has come a L-O-N-G way since "BIA" was originally produced. Far more resolution is possible now from the source than what the original D/As were capable of back then. Additionally, the new surround mix was performed in the analog domain - not through a 44.1 digital mixer! Chuck would have made full use of every great analog and/or digital tool at his disposal during the surround mix.
I, for one, will be anxiously awaiting MY copy of "Brothers in Arms," which I'm certain I'll use as a surround playback reference source.

Yeah I read that somewhere here, still loving it . Here's a comment on that on sacd.net: Mixing:
No problem! You're very welcome!
Are there any others of his you've heard already? (I don't think he did a duff mix yet!?)
