I'm currently recording a demo/EP in a studio. Depending on the results, I think I am going to have it mastered.
What is your preferred format to receive a 2 track mix? For tracking, it's going to DAT then we are mixing in the computer. After that, the format can be whatever. I've seen a bunch of places that say pretty much anything that is not in a 'lossy' format.
What about mixing someone else's tracking work? As I said, the songs/tracks are already on DAT...should I leave the raw tracking in that form? I know we are going to touch up the tracking on the DAT for minor drum timing issues. So get a DAT of the 'fixed' timing, or just the raw work and fix the timing at the new place?
The reason why I ask is I'm thinking of changing studios to record the other half of the album. While I'm getting okay results where I am, I think I could do better in a different environment.
