Gosh, I hope they don't do another "dead-track" on DRACULA. The recording advancement between DRACULA and FRANKENSTEIN was nothing short of incredible. There is only so much pure ambience in DRACULA that can be retained when you reduce the hiss inherent in the original soundtrack negative or even original release print. The last time they "fixed" the soundtrack, they almost wiped it clean so that every pro-active piece of audio seemed to come out of thin air. There was absolutely no sustained ambient sound.
