The MoFi Mess and TAS rolling over for them

"I don’t think there was deceit."

I not only think it, I know it. There is a clip floating around on YouTube, in which one of the MoFi people is asked point blank if their mastering chain is 100% pure analog. He responds with a very unambiguous "Yes". That was a deliberate lie. If you watch very closely, you may detect the same subtle sense of shame register on his face immediately after saying yes as do I. Not everyone can pull off being a shameless liar. Those who can sometimes run for president of the United States, and win (once, at least. Fool me once, shame on you..... ;-) .

In his announcement of the upcoming release of the Steely Dan catalog on LP, Analogue Productions’ Chad Kassem states the first five albums will be cut to lacquer from the analog master tapes (Chad and mastering engineer Bernie Grundman go to great lengths to secure master tapes), the 6th and 7th from DSD files.

"I don't think there was deceit. Perhaps not being as honest of every detail about each stage of the mastering"

So what is it then , partial deceit? You either honestly disclose all or if you don't you are deceitful

Laughing...rolling over pays the Bills.

Happy Listening!

Whoever is quoted on You Tube lying didn’t speak for Mofi. I can’t find any materials where they say the records ate produced 100% analogue through every step.

Now that this controversy is out there, Mofi states how each record uses any digital steps in mastering the records. 

Will anyone not buy Aja or Gaucho UHQRs. because there are digital steps involved? I doubt because it peole know AP will try to create the best sounding records possible, just like Mofi does. Sometimes digital steps make the end relut records sound better.

It was one of MoFi’s engineers on YouTube. You can find it if you want.

Aja and Gaucho from analogue productions will be all analog. In Chad we trust.
