Now, I'm wondering if there is an LP, CD or download release that has true mono versions of the Star Club recordings. When you're listening to music being played, live, in front of you, the singer's voice isn't only coming out of the right speaker. Magical Mystery Tour was not included in the set as it was not originally issued as an LP in the UK. The set was released on compact disc on 9 September 2009, the same day the remastered stereo recordings and companion The Beatles (The Original Studio Recordings) were also released, along with The Beatles: Rock Band video game. Your ears are getting more auditory information than you get with mono, but more information does not as a rule make for a better listening experience or even better audio quality.

I was amazed at the number of differences I could hear; not just mixing differences, but really big differences, like missing backing vocals on the stereo Fixing A Hole and of course a whole lot of missing special effects from the stereo Lucy.The set debuted at number 40 on Billboard's Top 200 chart and the magazine reported that 12,000 copies were sold in its first week of release. By rejecting non-essential cookies, Reddit may still use certain cookies to ensure the proper functionality of our platform. A mono version of the Yellow Submarine album was released in the UK, but it was simply a fold-down (two stereo channels combined into one channel) from the stereo mix, not a unique and separate mono mix. For Mono Masters, disc 1 uses a mid-1960s Parlophone label design and disc 2 uses the unsliced Apple label design. This one I only had one rather taxing problem with--Help was dish warped (played convex on one side, concave on the other!

There's a complicated answer there, but you can hear for yourself what a good stereo Beatles mix sounds like if you decide to listen to a later record, like Abbey Road.Original copies sold in the US have a shrinkwrap seam along the center of the top, bottom and mouth sides of the outer box. The Beatles in Mono is a boxed set compilation comprising the remastered monaural recordings by the Beatles. Unsurprisingly, this is because stereo is a really good audio format, and we know how to engineer in stereo really well by now. I now noticed that it was in fake pseudo-stereo, which I don't think I even noticed when I first got it. For a lot of music, especially older music originally engineered to be in mono, a stereo mix can sound strange and off-putting while the mono mix sounds delightfully musical.

However, the mono mixes of " Don't Pass Me By" and " Helter Skelter" had been previously issued in the US in 1980 on the Capitol Records Rarities compilation album. I imagine you would need to remaster it from original tapes and then how it was recorded, number of tracks, microphone placement etc. Also omitted from this set, but included in the stereo box set, is a DVD containing the mini-documentaries included with the stereo remasters of the different albums.Released in 1982, The Beatles Mono Collection is a boxed set of all Beatles' albums which were originally issued on mono LPs in the UK ( Please Please Me to Yellow Submarine). like in this case The Beatles, I don't see that Paul and John were placed one behind the other, but rather one next to the other. From what I’ve read, they used the original master tapes to make it, so it’s not just a repressing of the old mono releases. The box contains a new two-disc compilation album titled Mono Masters, which compiles all the mono mixes of singles, B-sides and EP tracks that did not originally appear on any of the UK albums or Magical Mystery Tour.
