Author Topic: Sensurround Rob Brooks Film Handler Posts: 57 From: NY, U.S.A. Registered: Oct 1999 posted 02-07-2000 03:33 PM                     I showed Earthquake back in the mid 70's in Sensurround. The first night plaster fell off the sides of the theater. The paint store next store came in the next morning to find all their shelves on the floor with paint all over the place. They sued the theater. The sensurround was removerd quickly. I guess it was a gimmick that didn't pan out. But I must say the earthquake affect worked more authentically then anyne expected. ------------------ Rob  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-07-2000 06:15 PM                     Best Little Whorehouse 4 track mag prints in Canada at least had surround tracks but they also required the 12K switching amplifier in the MPU to be set I still remember it playing a theatre with Teccon preamps and the calls over the whistles in the surrounds . I told the manager they were wolf wistles for dolly parton funny he didn't buy that  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-10-2000 01:09 PM                     IF ANYONE NEEDS A SENSURROUND UNIT TO DO A REVIVAL SHOWING OR THAT SORT OF THING LET ME KNOW AS I HAVE ONE.
