At 8am we turned up to test the new final position of the subs on the stage front, and although the effect wasn’t quite as good as the original tested position, they still gave you a good effect |

 How Sensurround put me through College

I was in college in the mid 80's and I heard that Universal was trying to get rid of their old Sensurround equipment. |

REMEMBERING
SENSURROUND |
 "It
was in February of 1979 during a screening of "SUPERMAN THE MOVIE",
playing on it's initial theatrical run at the ABC New Street in
Birmingham, UK that I first became aware of "BATTLESTAR GALACTICA"
and it's imminent screening in Sensurround. The adverts and trailers had
passed and I can distinctly remember a roll-up narrated by Lorne Greene
describing the imminent experience of watching "BATTLESTAR GALACTICA"
in Sensurround with accompanying text. (It might be worth looking into
whether the distributor still has that somewhere in an archive). The
film started and Stu Phillips great score greeted the audience. Audio
wise, the mix was pretty impressive for it's time, particularly during
the Cylon attack on the Battlestar fleet, the attack on Caprica and the
Nova of Madagon sequences. John
