LP made from a digital master recording...


The digital vs. analog thoughts, even debates I can understand...when the analog LP is from analog masters.  When an LP is pressed using a digital master recording as the source, does that LP still have an analog advantage?

Hard to say....

I purchased a 4 record set some years ago of Pink Floyd, Echoes.
All  are 180 gram virgin vinyl; a collection of their musical history.
It was expensive. 
All 4 records were washed properly then placed into new rice paper sleeves .

Not all the songs were from the original master analog tapes.
Some songs were digital remasters.

I can pick those digital songs out during playback on my system.
The digital songs are 'thin' sounding, almost tinny.
The digital songs are one dimensional....kind of disappointing actually.  I expected better. 

Of course, there could be many explanations as to why those particular songs did not sound as good as the analog songs.  But, one would believe many of the variable factors were eliminated.
