In order to produce commercial records, an original record must first made. It is a flat disc, usually made of aluminum coated with a soft layer lacquer. As the disc is rotated, a sapphire or ruby stylus cuts a continue groove in the lacquer cotang. The stylus travels around the disc, making impression that corresponds to the amplitude and frequency of the sou being recorded. When completed, the original may be played back to recre; the original recorded sound. If the sound produced by the original record satisfactory, the original is coated with silver to conduct electricity, and th electroplated with nickel. When the original is stripped away, a negative the original remains, with a raised spiral pattern corresponding to the groo\ in the original. The negative is called a master matrix.

By electroplating the mother matrix w nickel and stripping it away, stampers are produced. Stampers are negath of the original record from which the final records may be pressed.
