A machine actually cuts the grooves into the acetate like a lathe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe acetate is used to assess whether the music has been successfully transferred to disc. It is checked by the sound engineer. There may be only one copy made of a particular recording, sometimes more are cut and sent to the studio and band members for approval.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe acetate comes before making the master, and allows the sound to be checked without great expense. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is unusual for more than a dozen to be manufactured, so from the collector's point of view an acetate is a rare find indeed! If the recording is rejected the acetate may be the only record that survives. The rejected cut may simply be poor quality, however the artist may have opted to use a different take of the song, if so, the acetate becomes much more precious.\u003cbr\u003eAn incredible find - possibly unique - and certainly one of only a handful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklisting:-\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBackwards \u0026amp; Forwards\u003cbr\u003eJump\u003cbr\u003eThe Bugle Sounds Again\u003cbr\u003eMattress Of Wire\u003cbr\u003eThe Birth Of The TrueBackwards \u0026amp; Forwards\u003cbr\u003eJump\u003cbr\u003eThe Bugle Sounds Again\u003cbr\u003eMattress Of Wire\u003cbr\u003eThe Birth Of The True\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist\u003c\/strong\u003e - \u003ca href=\"\/nl\/collections\/aztec-camera\" title=\"Click to see complete listing of Aztec Camera\"\u003eAztec Camera\u003c\/a\u003e (click link for complete listing)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTitle\u003c\/strong\u003e - \u003ca href=\"\/nl\/pages\/search-results-page?q=Aztec+Camera+Backwards+And+Forwards\" title=\"Click to see more products with the title Backwards And Forwards\"\u003e Backwards And Forwards\u003c\/a\u003e (click link for more of the same title)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear of Release\u003c\/strong\u003e - 1985\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e - acetate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Label\u003c\/strong\u003e - Sire\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCatalogue No\u003c\/strong\u003e - \u003ca href=\"\/nl\/pages\/search-results-page?q=25285-1\" title=\"Click to see more products with the catalogue number 25285-1\"\u003e25285-1\u003c\/a\u003e (click link for more)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e - \u003ca href=\"\/nl\/collections\/us-imports\" title=\"Click to see more items from United States (USA)\"\u003eUnited States (USA)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage\u003c\/strong\u003e - Regardless of country of origin all tracks are sung in English, unless otherwise stated in our description.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional info\u003c\/strong\u003e - Deleted\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGlobal Trade Item Number (GTIN)\u003c\/strong\u003e - 5053201281483\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e - This item is in Excellent condition or better (unless it says otherwise in the above description).
