Author Topic: Transformers 4: Age of Extinction DCP audio question Jonathan Goeldner Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1360 From: Washington, District of Columbia Registered: Jun 2008 posted 06-28-2014 11:14 AM                     I'm a little confused by Deluxe's audio indication of the audio mix - they denote: Studio: Paramount Rating: PG-13 Feature Run Time: 02:44:54 End Credit Offset: 02:38:10 Image Format: 2048x858 Scope File Size: 216 GB Audio Format: 5.1 yet when the list is broken down it also includes a 7.1 mix - it's both... right?  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

I've confirmed the 7.1 mix and it is playing at some of the theatres we service.  |  IP: Logged Manny Knowles "What are these things and WHY are they BLUE???"

How utterly odd. Outside of 'A Good Day to Die Hard's assaultive Dolby Atmos mix, I thought the volume level in certain scenes on AMC Tyson's IMAX Digital system auditorium was waaay too loud - I actually cusped my hands over my ears (which I rarely, well... never do) I didn't have this problem during the Atmos presentation, here though, the volume was relentless and beyond irritating.  |  IP: Logged Allan P.

AND IT IS STILL LOUD  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 07-11-2014 01:08 AM                     On my CP850, the fader is on "4", which is loud enough for my guests. Any louder and they start complaining.  |  IP: Logged
