What is lacquer master cutting?
This is the process in which grooves are cut by a cutting stylus onto an acetate coated aluminum disc. This is the first step in the process of putting your music on vinyl. In terms of the way the audio is handled, if you’re providing digital files, our primary concern is to transfer the information from digital to analog with as much consistency as possible. Factors such as program length per side, and frequencies that translate differently from CD to vinyl like excessive high/low frequencies in the material, are also considered while striving for the best fidelity and volume during playback. Please note that we are not “mastering” the material or making aesthetic decisions along the way. This service is also offered for an additional rate – please get in touch with us (info@samomedia.com), or contact your rep, for more details.
