I'm hoping someone can correct me.
The master tape is? - a long piece of tape, with a bazillion little magnets on it. A split second after the recording, those tiny (realigned) magnets start influencing each other, and start trying to shift position.
Unless I'm mistaken, tapes should be stored in a fridge/freezer.
There's also a small electromagnetic field trying to realign all those tiny little magnets, it's called planet Earth. The tapes need to be stored in a lead case (possibly a little dangerous for the handlers).
Every remaster I've ever bought is missing something. When I play the scratched/tick/popped original pressing, I always pack the new one, and sell it.
Or am I lost?
