For Equinoxe, Michel Geiss modded a MP7 into the Rythmicomputer which had seperate outs. I wonder if this was actually concieved early enough for Oxygene?
Surely, if it was just a case of feeding the basic signal from the MP7 through a Smallstone then everybody that owned one would have perfect drums in their covers?
Just one thing... If they used the original
multitracks, it's remixing the tracks, not remastering them.

They don't because nobody phases drums, it's just something unheard of, to phase kick drums and what not. They either forget to or just skip that step or are unaware that Jarre phased them in the first place.
Jarre could've opened the MP7 and used it's inside intrument volume adjustments to pick which instruments played. Which would lead to the need for overdubbing.
The second option is seperate outs on the MP7 and 2 Small Stones.
And 3rd option is 2 MP7's with 2 Small Stones or one SS but drums post-processed.

sticker 'Haut' & 'Bas', I think it's only a indication for the technician during the setup.
