label's worn but the matrix number ends in -R2 and I don't see it in any discogs entry from 2004 onward. sis says it might be a promo. thoughts?

matrix -R2 means regional pressing but I need the FULL matrix number to check if it matches the July commit batch!!! I have the august 12 euclid meetup footage where gabe's denim cuff shows 47 tpi AND the flate 87v readings are on my notes

^ this BestBuddyStar you get it!! full matrix is GDX-047-R2 if that helps. the -R2 is stamped not etched so i'm leaning regional promo like you said. sis wants to rip it on the flac setup tonight ((finally someone who knows pressing codes))

- the twin one

"the weight of a regional pressing is the weight of the hand that held it first" (*author's note*: chapter 12's opening is a cd in a shop, isn't it?)

AuroraQuill still typing chapter notes in a pressing ID thread

AuroraQuill you can't just drop an "(author's note: chapter 12's opening is a cd in a shop, isn't it?)" in the middle of a pressing ID thread and pretend that's a normal thing to do sis is LOSING it next to me she says "that's literally just a footnote about your own fanfic in a real thread about a real CD" and honestly she's right for once.

((Aurora if you're writing a novel about Gabriel that's cool but this is the archive board. keep the author's notes in the fanfic thread or at least put them in [brackets] like the rest of us do when we're fighting with our siblings mid-post ))

anyway the matrix is GDX-047-R2 and i'm ripping it tonight on the flac setup. will post spectrals if the drive cooperates. no author's notes included

TwinPeaks_59 please tell me you're ripping that GDX-047-R2 to WAV not FLAC!!! if the 47 count matters and the denim cuff is 47 tpi then we need the raw uncompressed audio where the byte order shows the lot code alignment!!!

GuardiaoDaNoite you promised walkie audio with EXIF timestamps since JUNE!!! still no 1:47 recording, still green glow photos with no audio track, still multimeter 0.00 but somehow a whole testimony about deleted abuela prayers!!! what is the proof supposed to be :dumb

everybody's chasing photos but NOBODY has delivered raw audio from a 47Hz source!!!

has anyone actually measured the runout groove width on that pressing or are we all just trusting the matrix

TwinPeaks GDX-047-R2 stamped not etched does the stamper code match the July 2005 batch

please forgive me but this matrix GDX-047-R2 is the exact code from the July commit batch I have been translating for the Japanese mirror - it is the first physical confirmation of the 47 signature I have held in my hands in months (;) the denim cuff's 47 threads per inch and the carrier wave are finally aligning in a way I can hold in my hands.
