LATHE CUT VINYL
GENERAL INFORMATION
Alongside audio mastering, I also provide lathe cut vinyl, with no minimum order, anything from one copy upwards. I cut on a highly modified VR T560, removing all original electronics, creating my own, customised signal path for a faithful recreation of your audio including a custom EQ curve made specifically for my cutter head. All cuts are made on a Technics SP10 MKII platter for total stability and zero wow & flutter.
​
You can choose between black or transparent vinyl, with options for printed labels, inserts and sleeves. I also offer a free 1 minute test cut for new customers, you simply pay for the shipping.
OPTIMUM RUNNING TIMES
Below is the maximum running times that I personally recommend for a nice, high fidelity cut per side. Going over these times can mean a trade off in volume and incur more distortion towards the center of the disc. Going under these times means, in most cases, will provide an even better end result in terms of volume and fidelity.
