Open post teledyn 𓂀 @teledyn@mstdn.ca · 3mo ago Replying to @teledyn@mstdn.ca The ‘Analog Warmth’ of Vinyl Has Been Mostly Digital Since the ’80s, Says Sound Engineer | Headphonesty I'm not giving up on a pure analog signal path, but this confirms my worst fear: "The shift to digital processing in vinyl production began in 1979 when Ampex released their ADD-1 Digital Delay. This device, built specifically for vinyl cutting, soon became standard equipment in mastering studios across the globe." They cite one and only one at-time-of-writing holdout; there must be more! #theVinylFrontier #vinylrecords #analogaudio #musicianslife https://www.headphonesty.com/2025/02/vinyl-records-gone-digital-process/ A New Hope 😊 #AllAnalogMastering #theVinylFrontierhttps://lacquerchannel.com lacquerchannel.com
