CTW DJs LiamStyles Posted May 24, 2004 CTW DJs Share Posted May 24, 2004 Jeez, £14 for a two sided vinyl. Thats good. Think i will get a few of my tracks done up.

CTW Members LiquidEyes Posted May 25, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted May 25, 2004 Blimey that is cheap. I wonder how professional the job is (the website is a bit amateurish). Bear in mind that anybody could start up in that business - those vinyl cutting machines "only" (!) cost about 5 grand these days. That said, for £14 I'd give it a go!

CTW Members Aaron Posted May 25, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted May 25, 2004 (edited) looking at the site, i think he takes it striaght from CD or MP3 and cuts it to Vinyl Huge value for money i reckon! Edited May 25, 2004 by Aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW DJs Tony P Posted May 25, 2004 CTW DJs Share Posted May 25, 2004 in that case sounds very good, didn't know you could do it that way better get making some tunes then....ha ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 but will it cut vinyl with a limited shelf life? i thought some promo records ware out after only a few dozen plays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members Aaron Posted May 25, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted May 25, 2004 I think what your on about are Acetates, which wear out after about 15 plays? This bloke allegedly cuts on proper vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 does anyone actually still cut with Acetates then? granted it was years back when i 1st heard about them, when the technology to cut vinyl wasnt affordable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members Aaron Posted May 25, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted May 25, 2004 hmmm, i'm not sure... i must admit i've never come across them, i've only read about them in book etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members LiquidEyes Posted May 25, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted May 25, 2004 QUOTE (Mr_Happy @ May 25 2004, 14:27) does anyone actually still cut with Acetates then? I believe so, but it's becoming less popular now more clubs are getting CDJs and so on. The price of "cut it yourself" machines, which cut proper vinyl, has come down a lot over the last few years. I believe you can get a machine for about £5k. How good the quality is, I don't know. Presumably it depends how "pro" this guy is - whether he takes the time to set up the machine for your track, to get optimal levels, and so on. It's hard to believe these ~£5k machines would produce results as good as "proper" mastering studios. But for £14, it might be worth a go anyway...
