Tracking Angle Visits Paul Gold's Salt Mastering In Greenpoint, Bklyn, N.Y.

Veteran disc mastering engineer Paul Gold runs Salt Mastering out of a small, Greenpoint, Brooklyn, N.Y. studio crammed with tape machines—including a few rare and unusual ones you'll have to watch the video to see— and a pair of Neumann lathes.

He contacted me to say he's just completed a "shaker console" he's been working on for fifteen years! And he thought I'd enjoy seeing it. I did. It's not like Shaker furniture.

Gold goes back to the "golden age" of disc cutting and has the documentation and stories to prove it. He calls it "Salt Mastering" he told me off camera, because he feels good mastering is like properly used salt: you shouldn't taste the salt, it just makes everything taste better.

This is a short but fascinating look into a guy dedicated to his craft.
