Old vs. new


I have a simple(maybe?) question for you guys, I have some new versions of albums that I’ve replaced from older vintage records that I’ve  had thinking they would sound better than my older ones, but they don’t, since vinyl  has made a comeback , we’re the older versions engineered and mixed for vinyl and now the new recordings not mixed to favor vinyls characteristics?

... to reissue an album, a digital file is created from the analogue tape and becomes the new master.
Not necessarily. Some reissues are made from analog tape.

all the pressing machines, cutting lathes... are all vintage, they can modify it with new parts, but these equipment is no longer made.
You're mistaken - there are several companies manufacturing new pressing machines, such as Viryl and Record Pressing Machines.
