Since 1968, Sterling Sound has been one of the world’s most respected mastering studios. It has helped shape the sound of legends like Led Zeppelin. Sterling’s reputation is built on one core value: respect the artist’s vision while pushing the vinyl format to its limits. Engineers like Ryan Smith take great care with every project, from lacquer cutting to full vinyl mastering, so listeners can experience the music exactly as the artist imagined.
