question for manderley - were the tapes stereo, or were they multitrack (4,8,or 16) and needed to be mastered? If the latter, how long did it take Intrada to prepare them? I'm just wondering about the process, and since you were involved, thought you might know. The labels dont always answer these kinds of questions.
manderley said somewhere that he'd say no more on the matter.
Since the recording was done in England, I don't think the tapes were multitrack - but that's simply my guess.

Was Friedhofer trapped in depression around the time he composed this?
Why this question?
I read somewhere he had some dark times toward the end of his composing life. I would like to know if recovered before, these things affect peoples creative ability. Die Sister Die is a favourite of mine.
Glad to read that "Die Sister Die" is a fave, but I've never encountered any information on Friedhofer experiencing depression.
I have read about Malcolm Arnold's depression (though it's unlikely Arnold's depression would also somehow get attributed to Friedhofer)

Thanks, zardoz. I'm basically looking for advice on how one could get a multitrack soundtrack to cd. I read a blurb how Lukas released his first cd* but I dont know if it's possible for an individual (without alot of money) to do it today. For soundtracks that labels arent interested in doing.
Ah - you mean items such as Lyn Murray's "The Prowler"? That's a title I wouldn't expect to see on an album.
Sorry, but I'm not a technician/engineer - so I have no idea how one mixes multi-track tapes into a well-balanced album master.
I recall Intrada's 2004 edition of Goldsmith's "Bandolero!" to address such mixing in their liner notes, and this is only one such example out of many.
Weren't most studio recording sessions done in the mid-1970s on 3-track mono?
A number of Jerry Fielding albums ("The Outfit", "Gray Lady Down") were mastered from this type of source elements.
Perhaps Chris Malone might be willing to communicate?
He posted about his work on "The World Of Suzie Wong" in the thread on that Kritzerland release...

no, that wasnt multitrack and I doubt original copies (they were stereo 1/4" with mono music). Although being a noir from a relatively known composer, I would think there would be some demand.
Seems like some of the labels are cranking out the soundtracks, and older ones might require some work (like mastering). But anyway, I wonder if Lukas took out a loan, or had friends or fellow-fans who contributed their skills or money. Basically the tapes need to be digitized and mastered, which are both alot of money. And if you wanted to share it, there's the various copyrights, and even product requirements (the copyright owner might stipulate it needs to be factory made cds, with certain art).
As this isnt related to the thread topic, I'll stop posting about it. I was only trying to see what Manderley's experience was like.
