Ted Kendall can probably answer this better than I can as most of my work is concerned with the 70's onwards. In my case I'll receive the analogue master tapes if I'm lucky but projects are often taken from vinyl or cassette. Everything is transferred to digital as the main destination is normally CD and download nowadays. The projects that end up on vinyl are nearly always mastered digitally. I say nearly always as I have one project in the works that has been fully analogue all the way through and the artist is hoping to keep it that way if possible.
