What is "Remastering"?

Many people are wondering what format to buy?

Remastering is when music which is already released (mastered) and is "remastered" for releasing again with slightly different characteristics. Remastering can be taking an old vinyl of 40 years and running through systems to change the sound (for better or worse) for release in CD. That was the most common form of remastering.

Because so many audio engineers choose to mix and master in lower sampling rates (like 44.1 or 9624) than we like, we developed a "remastering" process called SEA (systems for exceptional audio) that can take any master and remaster for DSD256. We spent 3 months developing an analog proprietary setup (not just a conversion) that helps to increase the dynamic range and the width of the sound with the final product being a DSD256 audio file. From the DSD256 we create the 8 other formats so that you can choose the format your listening system was setup for.

Many of these techniques are more thoroughly explained at our dedicated newsletter for learning about recording, sound and DSD. If you'd like to sign up, please go to:
https://dsdguide.substack.com/

Our commitment to DSD audio is stronger than ever!

DSD is one bit recording with millions of samples that provide the fullest dynamic and frequency range. Still playing FLAC and WAV? Experience DSD and you won't go back to standard files.

So, when you're ready to hear the music in its finest state, try DSD!

DSD is not for everyone. You need to have a DAC that plays DSD. That said, we have WAV, FLAC and some MQA files for you to choose from.

We also have GOLD CDS available - Master Quality Discs (MQD)

You can read more about them here.
https://masterqualitydisc.com/
And see our hundreds of Gold CD titles here

Want to upgrade your files to DSD256 listening?

If you've purchased a 9624 FLAC and your favorite album is now available in DSD256, you're in luck! We can upgrade any of your previously purchased files if you pay the difference... and you can keep your old files to compare. Contact us at support@bluecoastmusic.com for details.

We send out 3-4 newsletters a week... Blue Coast Records, Cookie's Corner and 2 for Blue Coast Music from this list. On occassion, someone asks "why" we send out so many. The reason is because the majority of people enjoy hearing from us.... and they buy more music. Note: if you don't open the first time, the same email will send 72 hours later. Why? We've found that many emails don't break the barrier of getting through to inboxes and the open rate increases by thousands on the second attempt. We feel we're supporting the majority of our subscribers with this approach. Thank you for YOUR support and feel free to contact us at any time.
