[bigbillquad]

are those Disney originals mixed in Quad, Bill?

if so.... WOW!!!!

I`ll have to get back on this being Christmas to verify before I play any of these LP`s I give them a cleaning with my new Ultrasonic cleaner and I`ve got a load to do...I`ll get there....

 

[bigbillquad]

What a rip off!

Yes, I think you are right Bill, this is not showing any actual centre channel, but is simply showing where each instrument has been positioned in the recording.

1972 according to the record label in Bill's pic!

Merry Christmas!

Hi Bill, what ultrasonic cleaner have you got? - I was thinking of getting one but there seem to be so many out there it's difficult to choose. Cheers.

Yes and I'm surprised that they had so many indicated as QS .
I'll see if I can dig up those 2 titles names for you , Soundy

The two titles identified as being a true quad source from Everest, etc. ;

Scott Joplin - Treemonisha (Zimmerman piano) ....Olympic 8139. ( same recording as on Murray Hill 931079 )

Richard Zimmerman - Scott Joplin, The Entertainer ......Olympic 7116 . (again same on Murray Hill 931079 )



It should be of interest to note that most stereo recordings (Everest etc ) fed through a QS Encoder properly should yield a QS quad matrix albeit not intended , mono sources are seriously doubtful.


Hopefully this is of some help Soundfield . Now you have to establish which are from a stereo source.

Looking at that Bacharach lp in QS , I was wondering if they also released the Canned Heat one in Japan ?

It was on Liberty Records .

This could be the original film sound arrangements .

I think Disney were first out of the gate to present films in surround sound in theatres .. (maybe 1937 ??)

Thanks Bill - I'd missed that thread somehow!

Thanks very much Fizzy, I'll look out for those Scott Joplin titles.

My last quad acquisitions of the year arrived last week.

A couple from EMI:

A rather battered VoxBox set (as many of them offered for sale seem to be, not necessarily because were they singled out for maltreatment by the original buyers (!) but rather the boxes were poorly made, somewhat flimsy affairs and the stick on paper artwork rarely fares well):

although the LPs are in fine condition and the recording was Dolby processed:

Finally, this Eurodisc LP in comparison is a much higher quality item in terms of presentation (and thanks to still being sealed, is in perfect condition):

I think I might have to buy a few more in the New Year!

Your welcome , Soundy.

Also consider the stereo source . I've playd with stereo into an Encoder and it can work , as most if not all have 4 separate input vol. controls ........so if done right you get a decent quad matrix encode by steering info from the stereo source into the rear .

Fantastic mixes! What I'd give to get these on SACD from DV...

Hi. fredy

I have listened to this QS Quad LP it has good Quad action in the back channels the main stage in front and a lot of banter back and forth from instruments left to right to front,
in respect to whether this is the music that Disneyland Records used in there movies & on tv I don't now, It came to my mind when I visited the US about 38 years or so ago I done the tourist think I visited Disneyland I remembered there was a stage which had a full band orchestra playing all the Disney favorites and the LP reminded me of that.
This LP was released in Japan From King Records and they would of got the master Quad tape from Disney Records to produce this LP.
I read some were years ago that Disney released some Quad LP but I cant remember any de tales.

great finds!
love these two, too.. and you don't see them come up that often, especially the Survival SQ in good nick seems to come up quite infrequently.. we have no discrete point of reference for the Survival Quad but if we ever do get a DV release i reckon the Surround Master will have been shown to have done a great job, it's fab and easily one of my all-time faves from SQ!
