Beatles/Abbey Road Japanese Reel to Reel Upgrade

In addition to the groundbreaking CD version of the best Nimbus supercut of “SGT. PEPPER’S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND,” we will also release the huge bestseller “ABBEY ROAD ORIGINAL JAPANESE REEL TO REEL”! This masterpiece was very well received with comments such as “The sound is better than the remastered version!” and “You can enjoy the analog feel of listening to the master tape directly on CD!” This was a popular album that had been sold out for a long time, and requests for re-release were immediately received. This has led to the realization of the long-awaited re-release, but it is more than just a re-release. On the contrary, I got a Japanese reel that was in even better condition than the last time. On top of that, the reel tape was played on the ancient masterpiece Revox A77 MK4 and transferred directly to this disc. Last time, the high sound quality attracted a reputation, but this time it is a re-release with an improved feel that even surpasses that, making it worthy of the name “SECOND EDITION”. The previous version also had extremely high sound quality, and the reason it became such a big hit was that it was able to capture the delicate breadth and depth of the sound reminiscent of the original LP onto the CD. However, this second edition uses open reel tape that is in excellent condition and was provided by a different person than the first one. Furthermore, this time we used a professionally fully restored Revox A77 MK4 (a different machine from the previous one) and digitized it. The open reel deck was carefully adjusted for the main board to an accuracy of less than 0.5 dB in terms of channel balance and frequency characteristics, and after various adjustments were made using electronic measuring instruments based on test tapes made with a STUDER machine. It’s a direct transfer. This version is absolutely perfect. We carried out the transfer after reviewing not only the tape itself but also the playback equipment as mentioned above, so you can experience high-quality sound and a natural analog feel that even exceeds the previous version. The previous version also had a wonderful high-quality sound, but even with the plump texture of Paul’s bass that resounds in the opening “Come Together”, you will be able to feel that a further upper feeling has occurred since the last time. Furthermore, due to the good condition of the reel used this time, the hiss noise is reduced compared to the previously released version, and the vocals are also localized exactly in the middle. If you listen to it not only in this song, but in other songs where it stands out, such as the bass of “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer” played by George, you will be able to realize that the rich sound was contained with better reproduction than the previous version. . Therefore, as was the case with the previous version, when comparing this version with the current remastered version, the difference is even greater. Of course, the remastered version is not bad, and it is natural that there are people who prefer the overall well-organized finish that makes it easy to call it something for everyone. The idea of ​​turning past albums into CDs, not just those of the Beatles, has changed dramatically since the beginning of CDs. At the time, it was thought that the sound with the least amount of noise was better, but now the question is how to faithfully contain the sound of the original master tape. Then the enemy of age appears and it becomes even more difficult. In that respect, it can be said that the Beatles’ 2009 remaster was a great success. However, as a result, the record itself has been revived and is now being touted as the original UK version, but no matter how close it is to containing a sound similar to the master tape, the record itself has deteriorated. A problem looms. LPs are prone to sound deterioration around the circumference. In this respect, reel tapes were reevaluated because they can contain the amount of musical information regardless of the condition of the disc, and the previous version was released to prove that point. However, this time, it is the second edition of the upper version that can easily enjoy the sound that boasts outstanding freshness and realistic analog feel that surpasses that on CD! Highly recommended edition!
