Ever since I first looked and saw the TrueHD audio for both films, I felt detested, mostly because they're just the original near-field DVD mixes from the original PCM sources and converted to TrueHD. The best check I remember was that the LFE channel seems to be in 16-bit, probably because it was taken from the AC3 source. Another thing was that the first movie has an LFE crossover with the front channels, which does feel distracting. Sure, if you got TrollHD's HDTV rip of the first film, it has a new mix without the LFE crossover and no low-pass filter for the LFE channel, but it's still Dolby Digital, and later rips like the Starz WEBRip of the first use the DVD mix.
Thankfully, my dream was finally fulfilled since I finally got both Cinema DTS discs for both films, and as expected, they sound amazing, though the first movie is a hassle for me, because this is the first time I know that a Cinema DTS disc has different delays for the rear channels. Case in point, 40ms on rear right, 80ms on rear left and 10ms on LFE, so I fixed them. Though to be fair, I likely took inspiration from the LFE sync from the TrueHD audio to get it right. The second film thankfully doesn't have any rear channel delays.

Found the stereo audio from russian tracker (192 kbps). Wanted to check it out as the UHD mono sounds filtered. Don't know if this is from an official release.
Changed the frame rate from 23.976 to 24.000 to match the UHD frame rate. Format is FLAC and syncs to UHD.
To my ears the high freqs are more open and music and the "radio" parts sound better. Anyways, if you want to check it out just in time for HALLOWEEN.

Been a minute since I've posted some new syncs but I've really active on other corners of the internet (namely my discord and various TG groups) and I thought I'd make a thread for these syncs. I got inspired to do these because I was informed of some weirdness with the Six-Track mix off CiNEPHiLES' release and found that most of their audio was completely busted. Both of these tracks are synced to the 1998 DVD but will sync to the UHD with a +3993 ms delay. I did this because I know a lot of people like Top Gun in Open Matte and since the two sources are delay syncable why not please both parties.
1. Original Dolby Stereo Mix
Unlike what is commonly reported on this forum and elsewhere. The PCM track on the THX Laserdisc is not the original stereo mix, It is actually more likely a downmix of the AC-3 Six-Track. I had access to a bit-perfect capture of the Pan & Scan LD release and found it was much less blown out and more dynamic sounding than the THX PCM so I believe it is actually the original stereo mix, I checked the DVD stereo too and it is also a Six-Track downmix, though not as blown out as the THX LD. Available in 16/44.1 FLAC 2.0 to all members new and old
2. Original 70mm Six-Track Mix / LD
The 1998 DVD 5.1 track is in fact the Six-Track mix at higher bitrate (448kbps) and with slightly less dynamic compression, so syncing this might seem a little redudant but I found that the LD sounds more refined overall than the DVD despite it's advantages. It's much more maintained in terms of volume and the LFE has the slight edge over the DVD. Either way the copy I used for this sync is correct and not out of wack like CiNEPHiLES' copy so it was worth it in the end. Available in 16/48 DTS-HD MA 5.1 for all members new and old
Hope y'all enjoy and until next time, Peace.
