| Help? Problem With Holding The Groove On A Hot Pressing Also try without anti-skating (and don’t use more that the tracking force) @chakster Thanks.

| Help? Problem With Holding The Groove On A Hot Pressing I find it unusual that the overly hot groove would occur in almost the exact same spot on multiple pressings. I’m wondering if it has something to do with the mastering process? | |

| The "1st Pressing" LP Hysteria- Is the terminology wrong? LOL. I can appreciate that completely. Just curious: Is it for lack of generally agreed-on terminology or is it the subjectivity of grading tubes based upon "the sonics"....or both. In my career as an innovation consultant, I would often have to s... | |

Thank you.For me there are two parallel points raised in the article: the difficulty of making a living as an artist in the contemporary music business and, the loss of craft in the music industry. The latter is of interest... | |
