Questions about mastering and this selection

Does this mastering credit apply to every edition of the album?

No. The credit belongs to the catalogue number shown in that row. Other pressings and formats of the same album may have been mastered by someone else.

Is this really everything you have from Ryan K. Smith?

Yes. This page shows every published edition in the shop whose product page credits Ryan K. Smith as mastering engineer — including the ones that are sold out right now. When a new record arrives, it appears here on its own.

Do all records by the same engineer sound alike?

The name alone cannot tell you that. The recording, the source used, the cut and the specific edition all matter too. This page helps you explore; it does not replace a listening comparison.

Why does a second name appear in some rows?

Because that edition was worked on together. We then name both people the way the publisher does, instead of crediting the work to one of them alone.
