Michael Weiss - Soul Journey - Kickstarter

After reading the article-kickstart , did i miss something they said they took the tape and transferred it to digital for mastering, 

"Michael and I proceeded to listen to the original tape and were blown away by the sound quality. We transferred it without any processing to 96/24." 

so its not an all analogue process? why transfer it to digital at all for the vinyl master? 

maybe I missed something but still sounds like I may be a great album.

Hi, this is Jerome Sabbagh. I came across this thread. We only transferred to digital so you guys can hear the music now somehow, and get an impression of the sound. The 96/24 files at least give you an idea of what the tape sounds like. We will of course master and cut directly from the tape, all analog, which should sound quite a bit better still. Just wanted to clear that up.

Thanks for your interest!

Hello.
I just joined this forum. Thanks Mifimadness for posting about my all analog project. This is something I've been wanting to do for years and I'm really excited about it. I am happy to answer any and all questions and I hope some of you will consider supporting this endeavor. As a musician I grew up in the pre-digital era, and still today vinyl is basically all I listen to. My first record as a leader was all analog, recorded at RVG for CrissCross. Subsequently after making three CDs I'm thrilled to present my music again all analog.
