Hello fellow trolls...

Anybody knows a good source of ready-to-press cakes/biscuits? Looking for black, color and eco mix biscuits. Located in Europe and ready to order a large quantity.

Yes, cutting on vinyl and mastering from there gave them the vintage feel they were looking for since they are a reggae band. Most reggae was only pressed on vinyl so playing reggae and being 100% digital might not be 100% what you want. The music I make is based on sampling sounds from vinyl and wh...

I had a dub cut by dr dub (Mex) and the resaults were more than fine. My client's audio was hard limited WAY too much (even for CD listeners), levels stuck to -4fb to -3db average, and we wanted to press a run on vinyl so we asked for a dub cut on the vms to see if its worth it. Sound was very fair ...

I will soon. check your inbox.

I've been a professional ever since I stepped out of my teenage years and Id rather hire a professional to cut on a vms and press 300-500 copies rather than record one by one 100-300 records... You asked how to start producing copies for basically no money (20K is not much). I told you. You come ba...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oPx-0uI2lM This is my latest record production pressed on vinyl. Cut and pressed at http://only-vinyl.com/ . Recorded off vinyl with: Shure Whitelabel cartridge and stylus, Vestax PMC05II dj mixer, Yamaha O3D for the A/D. No limiting, just normalized. No special audi...

Thnx for the reply. If you have any posts here that address this Id be glad if you posted the links here. I really can't afford all this money for private personal use and there is no money to invest for industrial / commercial use. I was wondering if by any chance i can get away with it with 20k-30...

Hi there, eventhough I have this account a few years now Im really kind of new. Im basically a music producer and Ive been making records for 17 years now in my country. Just a few of my releases have been pressed on vinyl but Id like to press more of my music. I was wondering: What costs am I looki...
