All cutting done on one of only a few existing VMS-80 lacquer cutting lathes and a custom vinyl mastering console. The lathe is quite simply the finest disk cutting lathe ever produced. With it's "modern" 1980's technology, a master cutting engineer can fit a longer side at a louder level than any other lathe. You will find many disk cutting businesses that have sprouted up recently are not using this superior equipment. Even experienced cutting engineers can not produce the same results on lesser quality lathes. Channel separation, distortion specs, bass quality and transient integrity are all vastly improved with our cutting equipment. And like it was in the "good old days" modern enhancements and modifications extend the low frequency response, improve high frequency tracking and allow us to cut a louder and more dynamic record. I have used this lathe for many years and know it intimately.
