Hey guys just thought I'd post a little about the internship I'm doing at a local mastering house here in Phoenix.
So far the guy has been mastering a bunch of old 1/4" analog reels from the '50s
'60s, and '70s for a reissue thing. Which means I've been learning all the intricacies of analog tape...splicing, fixing edits that are coming apart, baking the nasty shedding reels, loading the tape, using an oscilliscope and the test tones, etc...Stuff I would never have been exposed to otherwise.
It's been a total geek out for me so far, and the guys is really cool. Past couple days I have been watching him edit the stuff once it's been processed in analog and dumped into the computer. Very cool stuff.
