Each track must always be associated with a single recording, but a recording can be linked to any number of tracks.\n\nA recording represents distinct audio that has been used to produce at least one released track through copying or [[Mix_Terminology#mastering|mastering]]. A recording itself is never produced solely through copying or mastering.\n\nGenerally, the audio represented by a recording corresponds to the audio at a stage in the production process before any final mastering but after any editing or [[Mix_Terminology#mixing|mixing]].\n\nThe diagram below shows some examples of recorded audio, recordings and released tracks and the relationships between them:\n\n\n<center>[[File:Recordings_Helper_Diagram.svg|600px]]</center>\n\n==Examples==\nThese are all different Recordings:\n\n*Studio recording: [[recording:9ce76fe1-769f-481a-afbb-3b9b81c6f433|Into the Blue]] by [[artist:8970d868-0723-483b-a75b-51088913d3d4|Moby]]\n*Remixed recording: [[recording:023b1e14-0e7e-4dc1-9ab4-9ef4f0e70ce0|Into the Blue (Beatmasters mix)]] by [[artist:8970d868-0723-483b-a75b-51088913d3d4|Moby]]\n\n*Studio recording: [[recording:f449e449-503b-4ca4-967b-4aff18bc218e|Voulez-Vous]] by [[artist:d87e52c5-bb8d-4da8-b941-9f4928627dc8|ABBA]]\n*Live recording: [[recording:d97813dc-a5fb-4ddb-b22e-7990cd253aae|Voulez-Vous]] by [[artist:d87e52c5-bb8d-4da8-b941-9f4928627dc8|ABBA]]\n\n==Style Guidelines==\nPlease see the [[Style/Recording|guidelines for recordings]].\n\n==Properties==\n===Title===\nThe title of the recording.\n\n===Artist===\nThe artist(s) that the recording is primarily credited to.\n\n===Length===\nThe length of the recording.

A proposed format:\n\n\"studio, YYYY-MM-DD: Label [ Matrix] [, Additional Info]\"\n\nEach segment should be regarded as optional.\n\n\nLabel:  The record label for which this was recorded.  This is useful when the same artist has recorded for multiple labels; for an artist like [[https:394492c0-cecf-40a8-b676-0e5706317fab|Jimmie Rodgers]], who only ever recorded for one label, this can be omitted.  Examples:\n\n* [[https:d43d12a1-2dc9-4257-a2fd-0a3bb1081b86|Johnny Cash]] recorded for Columbia until 1986, then signed with Mercury and re-recorded many of his Columbia songs.\n* During the 1920s and early 1930s, [https://ellingtonia.com/discography/1924-1930/ Duke Ellington] alternated recording for as many as four labels.  Though originally released under various aliases, many of these sides have later been reissued under Ellington's own name.\n\nMatrix:  Sometimes also called \"master number\", the matrix number is a unique (with rare exceptions) identifier assigned in the studio to a specific recording of a specific performance. Multiple takes of the same song on the same day will each have a unique matrix number.  Generally, each label has its own format so it makes sense to include the label and matrix number together.\n\nAdditional Info:  Other distinguishing criteria that help tell one similar recording from another.  This may include:\n\n* Recording session: The album or other project for which this was recorded.  Helpful for identifying alternate takes added to expanded re-releases of an album. \n* \"master take\" or \"alternate take\": The \"master take\" is the one originally chosen for release; an \"alternate take\" is any other performance of the same work from the same session that was not initially released.  Expanded re-releases or compilations often include alternate takes labeled as such.\n* First release date: Alternate takes are often released only many years after recording.  If known, the first release date can rule out their appearance on any released earlier than that.\n* Descriptive information such as unique solos or vocal nuances that identify a specific version.  See below for examples.\n\n=== Examples ===\nLouis Armstrong and His Orchestra:  [[mb:recording/df015a15-e3dd-4284-bec1-b36374663ecb|<bdi>Star Dust</bdi> (<bdi>studio, 1931-11-04: Okeh matrix W 405061-1, \"oh memory\" take</bdi>)]]\n\n\nJimmie Rodgers:  [[mb:recording/1fc654b3-7a16-464d-8502-01f02c56c70f|<bdi>Whippin' That Old T.B.</bdi> (<bdi>initially released take, 1933; has fiddle solo</bdi>)]] vs [[mb:recording/c112a6ce-78a0-4136-ae5b-bad46993cce6|<bdi>Whippin\u2019 That Old T.B.</bdi> (<bdi>alternate take, first released 1991; has guitar solo</bdi>)]]   ''(I need to update these to follow the format)''\n\n== Broadcasts ==\n\n\"broadcast, YYYY-MM-DD: Studio/location [, Additional Info]\""
