"Another audio-event from Stockfisch: The first vinyl release in 2007 will be a DMM-Direct-to-Disc-LP (available from March 16, 2007). Stockfisch-Records perfectly meets the conditions for such a fascinating vinyl adventure: A recording studio with an outstanding FAZIOLI grand piano (model F 228), an in-house vinyl cutting lathe and contacts to numerous ingenious musicians built up over many years."

EQUIPMENT - Desks: SONOSAX SX-S and SX-ST

Microphones: GEFELL UM-75, MB 608 CL and the first microphones of our own development with the legendary NEUMANN M7 capsule and transformerless tube design -

Digital Converters: emmLabs ADC8 Mk IV (DSD) and NEXUS 28-bit (PCM) -

Dynamics: ELYSIA alpha compressor and DRAWMER S3 -

Speakers: STRAUSS Mastering-Monitor SE-MF-2 - Power amps: FLYING MOLE DAD-M100

What makes the result particularly interesting is the splitting of the analog stereo sum into three destinations. In addition to the direct analog signal for DMM cutting, we converted the mix into highest-grade DSD format (DIRECT STREAM DIGITAL/2,8224 MHz) - using a 1-bit converter - and into conventional digital audio format, 16-bit/44.1 kHz PCM, as well.

This direct-to-disc vinyl record comes with a SACD (DSD 2channel-layer) which also contains a CD-hybrid-layer. This seems to be the first opportunity ever available to compare three formats originating from the same analog source and transferred unaltered into two digital formats.
