N.2 265 mm reels NAB Hub SM900 ¼" 762m (Metal Reel Version)
Analogue tape offers the optimum opportunity to produce high definition masters of great sound. They were used to record famous albums that made the history of world discography, as this type of technology introduces artefacts and distortions that are pleasant and enhance the music.
A professional analogue tape recording adds just the right amount of Punch, Warmth, Fuzziness and Rounding Off.
"With reel-to-reel tape, the range of sound and the sense of width and depth of the soundstage are different. Noise is barely audible unless you try to hear it. The realistic sound provides very realistic dynamics. "
It's a sound you can hold in your hand but only with tapes copied directly from the original master tapes."

Reference Master Tape numbered edition in elegant luxury box set.Intriguing is this new project by Luca Mannutza dedicated to the music of the great Wayne Shorter, his personal musical idol.Mannutza has managed to add his personal touch, working mainly on the rhythmic aspect of the music while leaving Wayne Shorter's harmonies and melodies largely untouched.By using metric modulations, odd metres and sudden changes of mood, Shorter's music takes a different direction from the original version. New doors open onto unusual musical landscapes driven by the remarkable talent of Mannutza and his quartet.
