Record press refers to the process and equipment used in the manufacturing of vinyl records. It involves several key steps: 1. **Mastering**: The audio is prepared and formatted for vinyl. This involves equalization and compression to ensure the best sound quality. 2. **Lacquer Cutting**: A lacquer disc is created where a cutting lathe carves the audio grooves into a blank lacquer disk. This creates a master copy of the recording.
