Fung Hang Record (FHR), founded 56 years ago, has compiled the best selection of the various record companies and produced this world's first 33 1/3rpm UHQLP (Ultimate Hi Quality Vinyl LP).
Side A consists of 1 track of traditional Chinese music and 3 tracks of songs. The recording of all these tracks took place in a 540-square-meter church in Hong Kong. Todd Garfunkle (the head of MA Recordings) and Terence Lai were the sound engineers. To capture the natural ambience and acoustics, an original one-point recording technique was used to record the performance of singers and musicians live and directly in DSD 1bit 5.6 Mega hz format.
Side B offers studio recordings in the multi-track process. tracks 1, 2 and 4 were digitally recorded and remastered; Tracks 3 and 5 were recorded analogue on 1/4" open reel bands in 15 ips at least 43 years ago and remastered on DSD 1 bit 5.6 MHz.
All the selected tracks were sent to Abbey Road Studios to be mastered at half speed, and then a one-step processing was done at the factory to produce this UHQLP, which has the characteristics of super silence, greater dynamics, better imaging and more musicality!
UHQLP – Pressed with High-Quality Control
UHQLP is pressed on virgin vinyl with the newest generation, German-made pressing machine, under the supervision of AQCD Technology Company. With the help of an advanced German controlling system, time duration, pressure and temperature are critically set and strictly controlled. UHQLP is a vinyl LP faithfully made to the original master source.
Half-speed Mastering – Enables better grooves cut
Half-speed mastering was done by award winning engineer Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios in the UK. The cutting lathe running at half-speed (the original being 33 1/3 rpm or 45 rpm) enables the cutting stylus twice as much time to carve the most intricate of grooves. All the difficult-to-cut high-end frequencies become relatively easy-to-cut mid-range frequencies. This results in cuts that have excellent high-frequency response (treble) and very solid and stable stereo images.
One-Step Processing – Less is more!
Instead of the standard three steps lacquer plating process, UHQLP acquires one step processing. In One-Step, the Father stamper (the very first stamper plated from the lacquer) is utilized to press the vinyl record instead of 3-steps processed stamper (the stamper plated from Mother which was plated from Father). This process ensures the lowest surface noise and more musical detail and dynamics.
