Jason Hunter about the all-analogue recording session: The studio and engineering space were two small but cosy rooms filled with Vinyls, Artwork, Literature, and vintage instruments and recording equipment that inspired a very productive vibe and positive connection between the musicians and engineers immediately.


Analogue reel-to-reel direct tape copy from the original master tapes was made using two Studer A80 tape machines.

All tapes AAA pure analogue on SM-900 RTM tape on the bespoke custom-made reel spool. Limited 100 copies for each release. Format: Reel-To-Reel, 15 ips, ¼", 2-Track Stereo, 10.5" NAB Reel, Limited Edition, IEC CCIR. Most recordings on Jersika Records are made completely analogue – recorded live reel-to-reel to tape and carefully mastered to preserve the warmth of the sound. No noise reduction, equalization, compression or limiting was used in recording this record.

AAA Analog Tape: High-Fidelity audio reel tape duplication copy is a handmade product in real-time, by sound engineers and studio professionals with today's technology advantages: more excellent dynamic range, especially at frequency extremes; minimal signal processing; and unsurpassed richness and realism - it's the closest to hearing the music on master tape copy.

The tape copy is transferred in real-time, using studio-level reel-to-reel tape recorders on the freshly made SM900 RTM audiotape. Production of audiotapes is a very time-consuming process, so each label usually can only release a new album in batches.

Jersika Records is an independent jazz and improvised music record label founded by Mareks Ameriks in Riga, Latvia, in 2017. Most of the recordings on Jersika Records are made completely analogue – recorded live reel-to-reel to tape and cut directly to lacquer, but even those that went through the digital domain are carefully mastered to preserve the warmth of the sound.
