Emil Berliner Studios does not have 35mm Film projectors. These are played back on 35mm equipment in the movie studio and transferred to 24 Bit 192kHz tape, as the film room doesn't have DSD equipment. Then back at Emil Berliner Studios transferred to DSD. I think a better solution would be for Emil Berliner Studios to temporarily borrow the 35mm equipment transfer ALL the 35mm Mercury Recordings at one shot and return the equipment. I guess this was not possible.The 35mm film recordings with the 24/192 PCM inter-step sound excellent. My best sounding Mercury’s so far are from Analog tape direct to DSD. But we are counting hairs and comparing apples to oranges as I think all the Mercury Living Presence sound excellent and that really has to do with the 3 microphone engineering and the total lack of any processing of the original master straight through to the finished SACD. These recordings sound sonically superb and extremely realistic, as they were not moneyed with.
So do not be afraid of the 35mm Film to 24 Bit 192kHz PCM. Also PCM at 192kHz is almost as relaxing as DSD and Michael Bishop of Telarc says that sonically 192kHz is nearly as acoustically transparent as DSD. And I have noticed that 192kHz DVD-Audios and SACD from 192kHz PCM Masters do not have that over etched PCM quality that PCM has at lower sampling frequencies.
Happy listening,
Teresa
