Description
Spring & Summer were cut onto side A and Autumn & Winter onto side B. At 20 minutes per side this was very tight as cutting long sides without the tight packing of vary-groove can be tricky. “We knew we’d have to adjust the pitch (amount of groove lines cut over a set diameter) manually, saving space where possible” John states “Mike Valentine provided a CD version of the ensemble playing Four Seasons and this was used as a guide prior to the session; helping establish possible settings. At 96% disc space used from an approximate source we knew things would be tight on the day”.
AIR’s technical director Tim Vine-Lott provided balanced tie lines from studio one with John carrying out listening tests to ensure a good signal was getting up to the mastering room. Ray Staff was also on hand to offer wisdom and guidance prior to the session as one of the few engineers in the country who has done this before.
Talkback was setup between the two rooms and John cued the studio once the cutter head was down and lead in groove cut. There is no editing or stop/start possible in this process, Vinyl records are ‘normally’ one complete groove from start to finish.
