id like to see a discussion about the magical 22 minute per side limit. How many db does the level drop per extra minute over 22 minutes. Also id like to know about groove depth and why some cutting engineers simply wont cut the groove as deep as others, how that affects playing time and level...
There is so much garbage vinyl masterings these days. Wish several of these current artists had their records mastered and cut by experts like you guys. Many many amazing records cut at masterdisk. The resurgence of vinyl has meant the record companies and artists just want to sell records and not paying attention to a producing a great vinyl record
Apparently 50% of US vinyl buyers don't even play them. But yes: get it cut right and it can be pressed. Artists just need to slow down and allow for test pressings, manufacturing faults, printing faults, shipping delays etc, and stop expecting immediacy in the process. And more producers/engineers need to educate them on this fact.
Who you going to believe? Some guy who's been doing it for decades and owns the studio? Or an expert with their own UA-cam channel, who's got their info from watching other experts on UA-cam, and has no experience in the real world. I know who I'm taking advice from.

This just makes me not understand how sibilance works on magnetic recordings even more
What about Software that simulate lathe cutting?
Can you name a few? Do they auto master too?
There are two : perfect disc (software) and simulathe (vst plug in), both are free.
