They began in 1978 using Tom Stockam's Soundstream tape based machine running at 50/16. Engineer Jack Renner was not happy with what became the CD standard at 44/16.
Here with other principal Bob Woods back in the day demonstrating the cutter using Threshold Stasis One amps. They also used smaller ones for monitoring purposes:
I had the good fortune of playing a minor role in the Atlanta Symphony Firebird recorded later in 1978 via my mentor Dr. Cooledge who wore many hats: TAS reviewer, bass singer in ASO Chorus and member of ASO board. He was responsible to getting Telarc to Atlanta. Woods has some videos on YT where he reminisces about those days. I had hair back then, too. :)
I can't tell you how many titles were released on vinyl, but I have a number and you can still find some of the remastered ones Woods spoke of at various sites. The first was Fennell with the Cleveland Symphonic Winds which introduced the famous drum and Renner's wonderful miking technique following masters like Wilma Cozart-Fine. Still remains a favorite of mine. The 1812 with the cannon blasts is infamous for making most cartridges jump out of the groove! My Dynavector really can't fully handle it either.
The CD didn't enter the market until 1982 or so and they later transitioned to multi-channel SACD before eventually ceasing operations.
