So i've finished my mix and am ready to submit my work to a mastering house to be mastered. What's the best format to send to the mastering house:

1. Broadcast wave 32bit, 96KHz?

i have a song ready to go i have tried to eq it my self and it sounds a lot better but i am no pro and this song is going on the radio soon so i want to send it to a pro any suggestions on who to send it to for the best radio ready sound?

I'm recording on Protools, then putting my final mix onto 1/4" tape.
Assuming the Mastering House has both computer editing and 2-trk tape machine, should I take them a 1/4" tape or a CD with the stereo files on it and have them dump it to tape (cuz they might have a 1/2")?

Just wondering what you guys might think.

Greetings,

I had a notion today. Why are fiber optics restricted soley to digital transmission? Wouldn't it be possible to send analog audio over a glass fiber optic cable? Is anyone working on this? Or are the transmiters/recievers not clean enuff compared to electrical analog audio?
