RECORDING TIME
In vinyl production, the volume level of the sound is affected by the length of playback.
I.e. louder record = shorter playing time / quieter record = longer playing time.
The times listed below refer to a loud and high quality recording. Up to 20% more can be achieved, for example up to 19.5 minutes for a 12″, but at the expense of loudness and sound quality:
7″ Maximum recording time is 4 min per side. For best quality we recommend a maximum of 3 min per page.
10″ Maximum recording time is 9 min per page. For best quality, we recommend a maximum of 7 min per page.
12″ Maximum recording time is 16 min per page. For best quality we recommend a max of 12 min per page.
AUDIO FORMATS
Provide us with a wav, flac, etc. audio format file in the best possible quality.
Recording from tape, CD or audio cassette is possible.
We prefer audio files without vinyl mastering and with ideally 24 bit/44.1 kHz, 24 bit/48 kHz and above.
PRICE OF PRINT
Simple printed pocket, printed label, printed insert card + inner cover (white, black, red, blue, green and eco cardboard) and outer medium hard PET cover:
1-4 covers: 20€ / piece
5-9 covers: 12€ / piece
10-19 covers: 8€ / piece
20+ covers: 5€ / piece
PREPARATION OF DATA FOR PRINTING THE CENTRE LABEL AND COVER
Data for digital printing ideally in curves, in pdf x-1a format, CMYK colour profile.
If this is not possible, in png or jpg format, with a minimum resolution of 300 dpi.
Add 3 mm bleed on the bleed.
If you are a graphic designer, or know a professional who can make the design for you, please download the template for the cover plate and center circle. However, if you are not familiar with using graphic programs, send us the image material you wish to use and we will create the design for an additional fee with a price based on the complexity upon request.
