what should matter anyway, is the music, not the medium.
get that right, people will forgive any mixing or medium specific noise :)
Some true words here!

Remember that vinyl changes alongside with time so it´s like having a low pass filter acting as it runs.
Make ya mind up...
mate... AnX for... anxiety? All answers are on the video...
Different kind of degradation... LP filter as it plays the record (normal stuff for vinyl), not the number of plays you can get on a record before sound degrades...

In fact, I had a little play. Just run Ozone AI (CD/High) on it and hear all the bass added. The digital version then sounds much better, as the vinyl sound really narrows the image. :)

Easy to try. :wink:
To cut a vinyl is a true art as you have to control, at least, 5 or 6 parameters at the same time and all count. From level to frequency, from the amount of bass to the amount of stereo wideness...
It´s not easy! There is a video of Sound on Sound on Abbey Road where they interview mastering guys that cut vinyl. Everything is very well explained there!

Man, I had that kind of stuff but in tape with my punk band of 1990! Cheers!
I know that, I have owned several record labels and hand many vinyls pressed.

:o
hardcore punk metal ala napalm death. the track "you suffer" was a big inspiration!!
We released a single-sided clear vinyl 45 rpm 7" ... got us a review in The Wire.
Dunno if it sounded better or not on vinyl, but it got the track played.
we did get a little review in a fanzine done by probe records, they didn't tear us apart.
we never got played anywhere that i know of. not even john peel would touch us :lol:
don't know if we sent it to be honest, was only a short pressing of 100. hoping to shift at gigs, i think we sold about 20 to mates :hihi:
the folly of youth, we had no clue!!
all good fun though, don't regret a day of it :ud:
:ud:

Man, don´t take it too hard but if you are so interested you could watch the entire video and see that I explained everything there and I even shown the contact to my friend. It only takes less than 12 minutes of your long life...

All I know is that it was a machine from Jamaica from the reggae guys. All other details are top secret and I could not even ever see the machine despite he is a friend. Business mate... All I want is a good record anyway! But contact him, he might be less secretive now! I have 2 jobs and a lot of work right now!

That is nice! I opened one but the music business was already dead... It still exists, virtually anyway... LOL!
