Cool stuff! Neat to hear some of the subtle things that got buried in the original mix.
 
5.1 sector box set
That’s the version of Signals I ripped and started listening to after it came out, which was at least ten years ago? I think a lot of fans of the synth era haven’t ever heard it and would get a kick of it. There’s enough differences that make you wonder why they chose to put on wax the versions of songs they did, especially “The Weapon,” and even a couple of Al’s solo’s have bits you can’t hear on the official LP.
 
I know, and it’s awesome. There are a lot of subtle differences. Its almost like they used a different take for the album for the 5.1 mix

I am almost positive some of Ged’s vocals on “Subdivisions” are from different takes, not to mention how further into the background Neil’s voice is in that mix.
