Hi Analog forum:
I have a friend who has unreleased material from the 60's and 70's on reel. He says these mix downs need to be mastered before they can be pressed up.
I know this is a simple and stupid question but what do you use to master a tape recording via analog? Whenever you alter or master a tape recording I'm assuming you would have to dub it onto another tape but wouldn't that fall victim to an inferior generation of the recording? Perhaps I should google this but I know this is THE place to learn and be taught.
much appreciated,
Tanoka
