A standard component in the release of a film on DVD is the sound enhancement and restoration process. We make the most of new technologies when we retransfer the audio elements that were originally recorded using the best technology available at the time. When possible (and budget allows) we acquire original 35mm magnetic masters of the original final mix "stems" (separated dialogue music and effects) or "predubs," which we bring into a digital environment at a high bit rate and do whatever cleanup work or enhancement is indicated by the state of the original.

On a DVD of a film such as The Conversation, where the soundtrack plays such a critical role in the narrative, the re-mastered track enhances the audience's ability to appreciate the telling of the story.
