Q. about "Sound of Music" OST

[jdmack]

Can anyone who has the quad tape of "Sound of Music" tell me how the mix sounds? Since that movie came out in early 1965, I have to imagine that the soundtrack was recorded on 4-track at best. It doesn't seem like there would be many options for placing sounds in the sound field.

The Sound of Music had a 6-track soundtrack on the 70mm prints. The original 35mm prints were mostly Mono. However, a limited number of 35mm prints were released in stereo). I assume the quad mix was created from a mix down of the original 6-track master.
