A remaster is a change in the sound or image quality of previously created forms of media, whether audiophonic, cinematic, or videographic. The resulting product is said to be remastered. The terms digital remastering and digitally remastered are also used.

Additionally, the earliest days of the CD era found digital technology in its infancy, which sometimes resulted in poor-sounding digital transfers. The early DVD era was not much different, with copies of films frequently being produced from worn prints, with low bitrates and muffled audio.[citation needed] When the first CD remasters turned out to be bestsellers, companies soon realized that new editions of back-catalog items could compete with new releases as a source of revenue. Back-catalog values skyrocketed, and today it is not unusual to see expanded and remastered editions of relatively modern albums.

Remastered audio has been the subject of criticism.[2][3] Many remastered CDs from the late 1990s onwards have been affected by the "loudness war", where the average volume of the recording is increased and dynamic range is compressed at the expense of clarity, making the remastered version sound louder at regular listening volume and more distorted than an uncompressed version.[2][3] Some have also criticized the overuse of noise reduction in the remastering process, as it affects not only the noise, but the signal too, and can leave audible artifacts.[4][5]Equalisation can change the character of a recording noticeably. As EQ decisions are a matter of taste to some degree, they are often the subject of criticism. Mastering engineers such as Steve Hoffman have noted that using flat EQ on a mastering allows listeners to adjust the EQ on their equipment to their own preference, but mastering a release with a certain EQ means that it may not be possible to get a recording to sound right on high-end equipment.[2][3]Additionally, from an artistic point of view, original mastering involved the original artist, but remastering often does not.[citation needed] Therefore, a remastered record may not sound how the artist originally intended.[citation needed]

As well as remastering the video aspect, the audio is also remastered using such software as Pro Tools to remove background noise and boost dialogue volumes so when actors are speaking they are easier to understand and hear.[1] Audio effects are also added or enhanced, as well as surround sound, which allows the soundtrack elements to be spread among multiple speakers for a more immersive experience.[1]

Shows that were shot and edited entirely on film, such as Star Trek: The Original Series, are able to be re-released in HD through re-scanning the original film negatives; the remastering process for the show additionally enabled Paramount to digitally update certain special effects.[8][unreliable source?] Shows that were made between the early 1980s and the early 2000s were generally shot on film, then transferred to and edited on standard-definition videotape, making high-definition transfers impossible without re-editing the product from scratch, such as with the HD release of Star Trek: The Next Generation, which cost Paramount over $12 million to produce. Because of this release's commercial failure, Paramount chose not to give Deep Space Nine or Voyager the same treatment.[9] In 2014, Pee-wee's Playhouse was digitally remastered from the original film and audio tracks.[10]

Remastered movies have been the subject of criticism. When the Arnold Schwarzenegger film Predator was remastered, it was felt by some critics that the process was overdone, resulting in Schwarzenegger's skin looking waxy.[11] As well as complaints about the way the picture looks, there have been other complaints about digital fixing.[12] One notable complaint is from the 2002 remastered version of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982), where director Steven Spielberg replaced guns in the hands of police and federal agents with walkie-talkies. A later 30th-anniversary edition released in 2012 saw the return of the original scene.[12]

Modern computer monitors and high-definition televisions tend to have higher display resolutions and different aspect ratios than the monitors/televisions available when the video game was released.[14] Because of this, classic games that are remastered typically have their graphics re-rendered at higher resolutions.[14] An example of a game that has had its original graphics re-rendered at higher resolutions is Hitman HD Trilogy, which contains two games with high-resolution graphics: Hitman 2: Silent Assassin and Hitman: Contracts. Both were originally released on PC, PlayStation 2, and Xbox.[16] The original resolution was 480p on Xbox, while the remastered resolution is displayed at 720p on Xbox 360.[16] There is some debate regarding whether graphics of an older game at higher resolutions make a video game look better or worse than the original artwork, with comparisons made to colorizing black-and-white-movies.[14]

Radiance, on the other hand, was one that we ended up omitting for power-level reasons. Most players who played the cards were caught off guard that radiance cards were symmetrical! We recognized that a lot of players who draft Masters and remastered sets are frequently only drafting it a time or two, and we didn't want people to run the risk of having a big moment ruined by a card not working how they thought it would in one of the only games they'd play of the format. It's possible that Incite Hysteria might have played out close enough to expectation to be squeezed in, but the spell was at a low enough rate that we figured it would be more fun to use the space for more exciting cards!

"[remastered]" ... encourages museum-goers to linger in the galleries, 

 looking for commonalities among the paintings in each assemblage.

 "I wanted it to be visceral, spiritual, inspiring," Mr. Waschek said.

Video: Reimagining Art in Worcester

 Worcester Art Museum Director, Matthias Waschek, shares his vision 

 for broadening the museum's audience with WGBH's Jared Bowen and 

 discusses the Museum's current exhibition [remastered], dedicated 

 to rethinking the presentation of the museum's 16th to 18th century holdings.

In May, the Museum hosted a conference that explored the future of libraries in the 21st century (learn more). While there is a wealth of information housed in WAM's Library, we are experimenting by bringing the resources of the Library into the [remastered] galleries with a selection of books that highlight art, literature and religion of the period for adults and children. Give it a try and let us know what you think!

One of the most acclaimed adventure games of all time is now back, better than ever. Grim Fandango's epic story of four years in the life (or death) of Manny Calavera, travel agent to the dead, has been remastered to look, sound, and control even better than when it won GameSpot's Game of the Year award upon its original launch. Grim Fandango still stands as a classic of the genre, with unforgettable characters and unique combination of film noir and Mexican folklore.

This is where we start to get into the meat of it, as there are many reasons why a recording may be remastered. Very broadly speaking though, it is often to improve the fidelity using the latest state-of-the-art tools, and/or to optimize the release for a new consumer format.

Adam touched on something else important in there, which is one of the key technical reasons music gets remastered: improvements in the mastering signal path. To make the most of these improvements, Adam likes to go back to the original mix tapes.

I'm quite surprised that almost no one noticed these bugs. It feels like that only a few people really played the remastered version and the creator is not one of them. However I am not saying it is a bad mod, on the contrary, I really like it and think it is really well done. e24fc04721
