BSM used Neotech VR900-D2 180g vinyl compound which is the same as what is known as Super Vinyl or Clarity Vinyl — the best in the world.

Levi Seitz at Blackbelt Mastering (Metallica, Pearl Jam, Beyoncé, etc.) cut the multiple sets of lacquers required — crucially all from the same lot of lacquers. Being a massive Linkin Park fan himself — Levi already knew every little sound on this iconic album!

Dorin Sauerbier at Record Technology, Inc (R.T.I.) has been plating records for decades and is considered the best in the world — he also has done more One-Step processing than anybody. This is a vital step in the process to ultimately delivering the absolute best sounding version of Minutes to Midnight ever.

Record Technology, Inc. did the pressing — using the exact pressing machine used for so many Mobile Fidelity One-Step releases.

The slipcases, "Old Style" tip on original art jackets, and inserts were printed by world renowned Stoughton Printing Company.

The vinyl A-team was used for every aspect of this definitive version of Linkin Park Minutes to Midnight!
