    Master Tapes - Genuine or Fake

    Thanks! I don't have master tapes to compare with my digital recordings, but I'm very happy with the sound. I have a Studer A80 RCMKII, 1/2”, HS and I switched from the original cards to Jeff and Charles' NextGen. The sound is incredible!

    New Repro cards!

    I am a happy owner of NextGen record+repro cards. I cannot praise them enough. I have been recording on tape since the 60's and for the last ten years from digital files. If you've never tried recording your own tapes, you should. You will not regret.

    Do Mobile Fidelity Vinyl Re-issues Have a Digital Step in the Process?

    Sound is about what you hear, not what you read. To stop liking the sound of a vinyl after the MoFi confession doesn't make sense to me.

    Do Mobile Fidelity Vinyl Re-issues Have a Digital Step in the Process?

    I think the main reason to be upset is not being able to tell the difference between an AAA and an ADA without a confession.

    I could finally hear my NextGen repro cards. Wow! The name is perfect, it's not an incremental improvement, it's a substantial improvement, they're in another league! Looking forward to the record cards! Congratulations Jeff and Charles!

    If tape is so good why does it record so poorly?

    If you have a recorder, testing is very easy. Record on tape and compare. If you prefer tape, that's fine, if you prefer the digital file, that's fine too. You'll never know until you hear both sounds.
