| About Lacquer Channel |
The Lacquer Channel recently renovated their facility in Toronto with two new prestigious
mastering rooms. The studios are equipped with the finest in vintage analog technology
and state of the art digital processing gear. This unique amalgamation of the best of
old and new technologies provides the engineers with the tools needed to make subjective
decisions objectively.
The Lacquer Channel is one of the only studios in Canada that continues to cut vinyl
records. The name Lacquer Channel refers to the disc recorder, or lathe which is used to
produce lacquer masters and dub plates. Lacquer Channel keeps its legacy alive by
continuing to keep making this important analog format available in Canada.
Chief Mastering Engineer George Graves is at the heart of the Lacquer Channel facility.
George began his career as mastering engineer in 1963, cutting vinyl records at the
Century Records pressing plant. He went on to work at the Mastering Lab, one of the
first independent mastering facilities in the world. In 1974, George Graves was brought
to Canada by the legendary producer Jack Richardson. George has mastered thousands of
albums, by artists such as Rush, U2, Alice Cooper, Peter Gabriel, The Tragically Hip, The
Guess Who, Kayne West and Sloan.
The Lacquer Channel is respected in Canada for their attention to sonic detail, and a
willingness to push the boundaries of music by exploring new techniques and technologies.
Engineers Phil Demetro and Noah Mintz represent the new breed of mastering engineers who
are fiercely devoted to the art and science of their craft. In the past ten years, these
two mastering engineers have gained their reputation by dedicating themselves to
mastering each recording expertly and creatively. It is their collective goal that each
recording they master reach its full potential as a manifestation of the artists vision.
Recent clients include Broken Social Scene, Canadian Idol, Sloan, Our Lady Peace, K-OS,
Saukrates, Great Big Sea, Shawn Desman and Death From Above 1979.
