Michael Jackson - Thriller (5.1 surround sound mix)

I created this 5.1 mix using 50 multi-tracks across 3 different sets of multi-tracks. This mix sounds different than the version on the Thriller album, ...the source tracks are from the "Starlight Sessions" which I believe was the session that preceded the album one. This and all the music on this channel are my own surround sound creations which I've mixed or remixed using either mastered or unmastered studio stems, or multi-tracks. I am not a professional audio engineer and since these are my unofficial mixes, they may sound very different from the official releases; whether this was my intention or not, my primary goal is to create enjoyable surround mixes. If you’d like to show your appreciation for my time and effort, I do have a KoFi page for donations here: https://ko-fi.com/methuselahsgrandpa If you like my mixes and want to submit a request to join my Telegram group, you can contact me here: t.me/JaredTheGood ....only a fraction of people who have requested to join my group have actually joined so make sure you respond to my direct message afterwards.

Even though Google Chrome, Firefox or other browsers may support 5.1, YouTube has chosen to restrict surround sound audio to the app only. Use the YouTube app on a TV, AppleTV, ROKU, Firestick, PlayStation, X-Box, Nvidia Shield, etc.. to stream surround sound. YouTube does not stream surround sound as high-quality audio. I upload my mixes here in the best quality that I can; as lossless 5.1 flac, 7.1 DTS Master Audio or Dolby TrueHD Atmos. Most of my mixes have lossless sources and so the only lossy conversion is the one that happens when YouTube streams it as 5.1 AAC or 5.1 EAC3 (Dolby Digital+) at 384 kb/s. To my ears, 384 kb/s is just not enough, I can hear lossy artifacts and the loss of fidelity. Low Volume When Streaming 5.1 Audio YouTube handles the loudness of 5.1 audio drastically different than it does compared to stereo. I have tried everything I could to my own mixes to adhere to the specs but it nothing ever worked. They reduce all 5.1 audio so much that you need to turn up the volume louder than you normally would for stereo content but BE CAREFUL with the ads, they can switch your AVR to stereo temporarily and it can be MUCH louder than the 5.1 music. Be ready to hit that mute button quick! Jared ( Methuselah's Grandpa ) No AI technology was used in the production of any audio, photo, or video on this channel
