Ricci has always made two masters for each recording, an analog master for vinyl and digital master DSD for SuperAudioCD. For these recordings Ricci used a "field effect" recording technique, natural sound, without the use of equalizers, no sound expansion and compression systems..... all this to bring the listener to live again in his home hifi system, the live effect as if he were present at the recording. Great realism, great dynamics and great music!
