Re: OT: surround
If you can even get partial mixdowns of tracks, you'll get a better effect
than just running everything through a surroundizer.
Another alternative I would suggest would be to use the surround as
'filler'
rather than trying to pseudo-'surroundize' the sound. That is, put a
quieter, reverbed mix into the side channel speakers. Don't overdo it
though
