OK...

I recently e-mailed my replication service & asked which optical transport assembly they used to cut their glass masters; & which burner they would recommend to write CD-R pre-masters.

They came back with Plextor on the OTA...

Hi,

Can anyone throw me some album titles that have been remastered and released on vinyl?

I realize this is probably a rather amateurish question for a very professional forum, but was still hoping someone might be able to help. A friend of mine recently had his demo mastered on the cheap (against my advice). It actually sounds decent, but a couple songs are fraught with clicks and hiss (i'm guessing due to the original recording).

I have been able through a studio to work on some mastering gigs as an assistant, the studio is closing and the main engineer is a nut.I was looking for some sort of well respected mastering course, workshop or school that i could travel to(i am in Toronto Canada).Something that would give me a fresh approach starting from the basics and hopefully eventually including new formats like 5.1 or S

As a mastering engineer, on average, how many adjustments do you make in your EQ, for example do you mostly work with high ends, or have the EQ notched at every frequency, and if so, what (shape) of this look like.

HI all, I hope I'm on the right forum, not being a mastering engineer. I've just completed a mix that I'm happy with. I'm sending it out to a really well known studio in my city to be mastered. The only problems with the mix were the drums, that for various reasons were hard to get thick enough as well as enough low end. I finally came up with the best mix I could and it's pretty decent.

Hi...i am a newbie to home recording and would greatly appreciate any and all insghtful comments to my predicament...

Hi,

As a classically educated musician also fooling around with a home studio in rather different genres than the classical, I recently came to think where the mastering of classical music differs from mastering rock, popular and jazz music; or is there any difference at all? And in a home studio, if trying to make a "home studio" master, which approach would you take?

Cheers,

Hi...please excuse my newb question ( I checked the archives).

Hello all-

I am recording in 24 bits at 48k in DP4 using a MOTU 896 on my 17" 1Ghz Powerbook. When I go to master and burn my tracks to CD (using Toast/Jam) will I experience significant information, sound quality or volume loss? Am I better off just recording in16 bits at 44k, since really thats where I am going to end up anyway? Do some translations work better than others?
