Der Magnetic Fidelity Sound
Bitte beachten Sie, dass alle unsere Services komplett künstlerInorientiert sind. Wir versuchen nicht, uns irgendeinen Trends oder Stereotypen, wie Musik zu klingen habe, anzupassen. Wir glauben, dass Recording/MasteringingenieurInnen einfach nur die Personen sind, welche die künstlerische Vision in elektronische Signale, magnetisierte Eisenoxidpartikel und in Plastik eingravierte Rillen übersetzen. Deswegen werden Sie vermutlich feststellen, dass jedeR der KünstlerInnen, die mit uns arbeiteten, radikal unterschiedlich klingen und sogar noch viel radikaler anders, als andere Leute denken, wie sie klingen sollten. Unsere Meinung, wie es klingen sollte, ist immer verfügbar für unsere Kundschaft, wenn sie diese brauchen, jedoch werden die KünstlerInnen dazu immer das letzte Wort haben. Die Soundbeispiele auf dieser Seite sollen nicht demonstrieren, wie gut wir in den neuesten Trend passen. Im Gegenteil, sie sollen demonstrieren, wie sehr wir uns vom neuesten Trend unterscheiden, um die individuelle Ästhetik einesR jeden KünstlersIn zu treffen. Es muss dazu gesagt werden, dass die KünstlerInnen auf dieser Seite alle fühlen, dass das genau der Sound ist, den sie wollten.Naxatras II

Naxatras Recording Session 2015
The West (from Naxtras LP)
This analog recording was made using a minimalistic microphone set up, including vintage dynamic microphones, as well as vacuum tube condenser microphones, vacuum tube microphone preamplifiers, vacuum tube equalisers, vacuum tube compressors, and a vacuum tube mixing console. The stereophonic output of the mixing console was recorded on a highly customised Tascam 122 mkIII M9 master cassette tape recorder, running at 3.75 ips. The tape used was Maxell XLII-S CRO2 tape, loaded into custom precision shells, specially ordered by Magnetic Fidelity. The mastering was done using exclusively vacuum tube equipment and the master was finally recorded on a highly customised Studer PR99 mkIII 1/4" master tape recorder, running at 15 ips. ATR Magnetic Master Tape in 1/4" was used as the master tape, in a half-track stereo configuration. The nominal operating level was set to 510 nWb/m, with peaks going far above that. The analog versions of this album were produced directly from the analog master tape, while the digital versions were derived simply by playing back the master tape into high quality analog to digital converters, one for PCM at 192/24 and one for DSD at 5.6 MHz.

Lunar MGC
Lunar mgc are a three piece band from Thessaloniki, Greece, whose music is too interesting to be filed under a single descriptive term. They came over to Magnetic Fidelity and recorded an albums worth of material, Direct-to-Master, entirely in the analog domain, using 1/4" magnetic tape and vacuum tube equipment. During the session, we experienced a super moon, and earthquake, and some of the wildest dynamics ever to have been recorded within the realm of electrically amplified music. Engineered by Jesus I. Agnew. This is a track from their upcoming LP "Planet Geisha". Notice the rich sound of the Magnetovolt FudGe from the crescendo onwards.Planemo
