Description
You are bidding on a NEAR MINT copy of the very rare 180 gram pressing, on specially formulated hard vinyl of the “Cardas Frequency Sweep and Burn-In Record”. Produced by George Cardas and mastered by Stan Ricker. Stan is known for his development of the half speed mastering process, and his part in the creation of the 200gram UHQR (Ultra High Quality Recording). A few of the LP labels Stan has mastered include Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFSL), Analogue Productions, AcousTec Mastering, Stereophile, Windham Hill, Telarc, Delos, Referen ce Recordings, and Crystal Clear! The “Cardas Frequency Sweep and Burn-In Record” is a unique tuning tool for system set-up, diagnostics and maintenance. The "Sweeper" side is mastered at 16 2/3 rpm and designed to be played at 33 1/3 rpm. The “Sweeper”, in addition to the standard tones, includes relative & absolute polarity checks, vocal channel identification and frequency sweeps that ultrasonically clean the cartridge stylus and degauss the entire system. The Burn-In side is mastered at two different speeds (16 2/3 rpm & 22½ rpm) and designed to be played at 33 1/3 rpm. Stan mastered it on a Neuman VMS 66 lathe with a helium cooled, Neuman SX-74 cutter head. A Sontec Compudisk computer controller and a Technics 5-speed direct drive motor was used. Keith O. Johnson designed the console and cutter head electronics.
