Frank Serafine on the Sound Design of “TRON” (1982)

Some time ago, TRON Wiki published an interview with Frank Serafine, sound designer of the original TRON film in 1982. It's a very interesting read, where Frank share some details about the sound effects design process, the mix, voice processing, and more.
