> This is also why modern vinyl releases sound a lot better than digital: they are mastered differently since its assumed everyone is going to be listening on good equipment.
I had always assumed they were taking the same master and just carving it into vinyl. I wonder what percentage of "modern vinyl releases" are actually remastering before pressing...
At minimum they have to move all the bass to the center and apply RIAA EQ.
You're certainly right, many aren't (I always check). A lot are though. I'd give it maybe like 50/50.
