The question I have is whether it is truly analogue or an ADAC process? A computer is required to do the topographical translation and mapping for the laser inscription. How do you think the translation is affected? From a digital audio file as we know it? Or would the topological meta data be derived using some other analogue recording instrumentation?

It's a very interesting proposition to replace cutters with lasers.
 
Oh great, another chance to buy the same music all over again at a higher price. :woot::roflmao:
 
^^^^ That will always happen! Past, present, future....it's all the same slice of bread.

I was thinking the same thing.......... although the backwards compatibility would make it more palatable.

C'mon Dave, You know you would want at least a new cartridge or two. Well, maybe a new tonearm as well. ;)

LOL, no the 'audio budget' just got blown for the year ......... I just ordered a pair of Revel Studio 2's
 
"3D-based topographical mapping alongside laser inscription technology"...bingo! lol.


 
Usual questions. Let’s see what the quality and price of the records will be, as well as breadth of upcoming catalogue plus compatible gear and judge then. But can’t avoid the impression that it sounds a bit like SACD on vinyl to me. We all know how well that went.

Not everything that is technically possible, is also commercially feasible.
