SM photo update (21 Oct) - including STARPORT signage

It syncs almost perfectly. Indeed, WDI already know this.
You have to remember with Soundtracker there is no single complete score - there are sections of the song stored as separate files, with parts designed to be played again and again if a train is running too slow until it catches up. Drum rolls, bridges, links - these may be heard once, multiple times or not at all depending how fast your particular train is running to always keep the music in sync to the ride (and visuals where applicable)
I recall a great Paris Mission One video where the launch was delayed and the pause score that normally loops once or twice was up to a dozen times before the car launched - and interestingly the looping section did differ slightly a few times. Hidden music!!

Hopefully, you didn't publicly embarass yourself with a moment of music fanboy jubilance. :lol:

Concerning Giacchinos score in Orlando, here`s a rough little test I did a while back: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1w5u5oeD4s
Thay's good to know. I never knew that they had hidden music, just 1 recording and such...:lol:

That fits so well!.
I'd love an orginal score, mixing in elements of the Star Tunnel music, and the score when you are at the loading pay. But any score would be better than none!

That's pretty amazing....just technically speaking. Thematically, it's perfect. Amazing what WDI can do.
Great vid, BTW....DL Score works perfectly. If we were to ever get score...would we get this?
Thanks. WDI spent several nights last year running a car with a makeshift audio system (very makeshift) in Orlando using the DL score. They were happy.That's pretty amazing....just technically speaking. Thematically, it's perfect. Amazing what WDI can do.

So....why am I sad, now?:brick:
Sheesh. That's terrible. They must be as disappointed as we are.
they should put a makeshift audio system in every car. :lookaroun
I just want some music!:lookaroun:lol:

I'm very very very very disappointed! Now I have to buy a portable iPod docking system that gets very loud, so I could listen to the music! :lookaroun

Don't take this the wrong way--I'm disappointed there will not be on-board audio.
But one drawback of audio is that fans like us are likely to memorize the music. You can hear it playing along in your head as you're riding. And that means on a pitch-black ride in the dark like SM, you know where you are on the ride path at all times, you can anticipate the drops and other synchronized motions, and you know how close you are to the end of the ride.
On most coasters, like BTMRR, you have a visual sense of what's coming up. I know that after going up the avalanche hill, the train will begin slowing down, and my ride will be ending very shortly.
One thing I love about SM (and maybe I'm in the minority) is that no matter how many times I've ridden, I can't seem to "memorize" the track, and elements like drops or the re-entry tunnel always surprise me. The ride always seems to go longer than I remembered.
When I rode DL's SM for the first time, I was already familiar with the music. So I knew what to expect. (Of course, that's true of any attraction soundtrack you memorize. But for some reason, SM is unique because the audio is you're only cue).

I actually know the track turn-by-turn, even in the dark... Guess I've ridden it too many times... :lol:
