So did anyone else catch the synth reference in The Force Awakens? Hint: It has to do with that planet in the right of the image on the left. If so, leave a comment, and please do not reveal any other spoilers for those who haven't seen it yet, although anyone that hasn't might be due for some punishment. I've seen it twice already in 3D and 2D - a note on which was a better experience for me is below. That said, if you haven't seen the film yet do not look in the comments, but see my note directly below.
And for those that do not know, JJ Abrams is into synths.
A small tip for those that haven't seen the film yet: I saw it the first time in IMAX 3D and again today in IMAX 2D at the same theater. I'm not sure if it was the theater, but both the audio and video quality of the 3D version blew the 2D version away. The screen was sharper, brighter and the audio was significantly better in the IMAX 3D version. I almost think something was just wrong with the 2D theatre, the quality was that much worse. It was like going from stereo to mono.
Update: someone got the answer in the comments below, so don't look if you still want to guess.

Starkiller Base? Not sure.
ReplyDeletenope
ReplyDeleteIt's about the Starkiller base or at least part of it.
ReplyDeleteSome one should see the 2D first, then the 3D. Lets see if he feels the same.
ReplyDeleteIt's just a large Roland D-Beam..? ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure my Micron had a "Killer Bass" preset.
ReplyDeleteSolo, I usually prefer 2D. This wasn't a matter of opinion. The quality was that different in both audio and video. I'm guessing it was the theater.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes it does have to do with the Starkiller Base.
Or rather the difference in the sound system and projectors between the two. Just know the theater you are going to if it matters to you.
ReplyDeleteOscillator.
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteGood one regarding the D-Beam! :) I didn't think of that one.
ReplyDeleteIf you look at image upside down, and look at the planet, specifically where the laser beam comes out. You will see a keyboard bed. Looking from that perspective the big red button reminds me of a Waldorf synth ;) --Once you seen it, there is no way to unsee!
ReplyDeleteGood one el estereo! Regarding Waldorf, the red and black in the original Star Wars films always reminds me of the Q Phoenix.
