High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A master recording is an original recording, from which copies may be made. When recording on to magnetic or digital tape, the original tape is known as the master tape. When recording on to a computer hard disk, it is known as session files. A multitrack recording master tape, disk or computer files on which productions are developed (or captured, in a live session) for later mixing, is known as the multi-track master, while the tape, disk or computer files holding a mix (mono, stereo or Surround) is called a mixed master. It is standard practice to make a copy of a master recording, known as a safety copy, in case the master is lost, damaged or stolen. Before a song or album master is released, the value of the master is determined by the cost to produce it.
