New Analogue Productions Nat King Cole vinyl: "Mixing directly to 45 RPM lacquer" adventures!

I doubt it. Gus Skinas of Super Audio Center LLC/Sonoma Systems
is still sending me check disks. Gus is bothered by the 30 cycle blow sounds of Nat's breath on the un-stockinged Neumann microphone on the three channel version.

I was playing my check-disk of "LOVE IS THE THING" upstairs and was called away to the phone. I ran downstairs and was talking on the phone and washing my hands in the bathroom and I kept on hearing this banging on the walls. It was so weird and strong I had to investigate. Yeah, it was Nat Cole's breath on the Neumann microphone bass-blasting through my speakers and floor right through the wall to the gut. I'm used to it after the DCC Gold CD and LP but on our new SACD and 45 RPM direct live mix it's even more "there". Turn your sub-woofer off when you play this album or your neighbors will not be happy (unless you're a total bass freak).

 

Steve are we talking about quite a long delay for the release of these CD's, baring in mind you may have to sort any problems out.

 

There are no problems.

Check with Acoustic Sounds. Won't be long now.

 

Anyone here would only know what they heard from Acoustic Sounds.

Just ask them but wait for a week until they all recover from the CES.

 

A review? The SACD/CD of THE NAT "KING" COLE STORY hasn't even been electronically assembled yet! No finished artwork, no nothing.

There are 45 RPM test pressings but they are different mixes than the SACD/CD.

Can't be much of a review.

 

Wow, he got a great head start. Glad he liked the set. It was blood, tears, toil and sweat to make it. Also it was extremely gratifying.

 

Wow, cool. Wait until he hears the three channel part. Some of those original multi-channel tapes hadn't been touched in 50 years.

 

Sounds right. Would it break your heart if they changed the prefix a bit though?
