Original audio cassette rips for most, which are getting harder to find these days. Quality for nearly all is very good to excellent, but depends on source cassette health.
Volume normalized on each file to a max upper end of -3.3db with a boost/gain of 2db for low volume areas in order to ensure a smooth listening environment within the book and between books, no JUMP volume issues :)
Simon & Schuster Audioworks started their “Star Trek” fiction line in 1987, making audios of their sister company’s licensed Star Trek novels and novelizations. The first one rode the tail of the publicity and marketing frenzy for the movie, “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home”. They followed up quickly with some solid sellers from the Pocket fiction line, somehow squeezing the three, then-new, “giant” novels into 90-minute presentations. The early audios were read by either George Takei or James Doohan, “with Leonard Nimoy as the voice of Spock”, a clever compromise to cash in on the pulling power of busy actor/director Nimoy, and yet not be too taxing for the ever-popular Mr Spock to squeeze a little narration into his schedule.
The audios, especially in those early days, were abridged by their own authors, although as deadlines became more difficult to meet, George Truett became “the man” behind most abridgments. Music and sound effects on the productions are unique to this audio line, although some use is made of the key TV theme music for TOS by Alexander Courage. Original music was by Carl Schurtz, Sam Micale and Richard Emmett, among others.
As we approached the 21st century, S&S Audio (as they are now known) pulled back on frequency of their Trek releases - they had settled into adapting mainly hardcovers (simultaneous with the release of each one), and dropped the regular use of Trek alumni as narrators, but the ST audios were still a fascinating, and always enjoyable, aspect of the Trek licensing juggernaut. The audio program has survived some interesting package format changes, and eventually embraced the rising popularity of CDs (eventually replacing audiocassettes) and now downloadable mp3 e-files.
