Regarding encoded text, the masters we use must have as part of their data the title of the disc, the catalog number, information on each track, etc. Unless there is an error with my equipment (unlikely), it appears the discs you sent are not encoded in this way. Can you provide new masters with this encoding? If not, [name] at [company] can. Regarding tracking sheets, what you have sent is certainly useful, but the plant requires something of a more technical nature - typically a "frame accurate" timing sheet. Again, if you cannot provide this, [name] can. The encoded text is an industry standard feature, and the tracking sheet is for your protection should the plant produce 1000 2-CD sets with a missing or truncated track. |

If I had to guess the percentage of audio CD masters we receive that are accompanied by a PQ sheet these days, I'd say low single digits. |
