Rediscover Master Reel Tape Releases From The Opus 3 Records

Opus 3 Records creates an Analogue tape copy, it is always a One-To-One Copy where, for example, no analogue sub-master is in between, in order to make it as good as possible with no added distortion, noise wow and flutter, etc.

Opus 3 Records - Direct From Original Master Tape Recordings

Opus 3 Records is unique in offering quarter-inch tape copies of their analogue tape masters, with around 50 titles available spanning solo piano, wind ensembles, orchestral, classical guitar, jazz (classic, modern and swing) and world music, as well as four ‘sampler’ compilation albums. That means analogue die-hards finally have access to some high-quality analogue reference material, free from any of the pops, crackles and other distractions that become inevitable with vinyl records. The master tape dubs are recorded at 15ips in the half-track format, with CCIR equalisation. No noise reduction is employed, and each tape is dubbed individually and directly from the original master tapes.

Opus 3 Records and the Analogue Tape Copies, consider purchasing this Opus 3 Analogue Tape Copy, which samples a nice mix of selections from Opus 3 Records blues artists, such as Eric Bibb, Eva Taylor, Lars Erstrand, Kjell Ohman and more.

Opus 3 Records is a record label founded in the late 70s by recording engineers Bo Hansson and Jan-Eric Persson at Firma Ljudinspelning, Sweden. The positioning of the musicians is planned to give the best possible musical communication between them and the most favourable interplay between them and the environment.
