![]() I got a Reference Acetate from the person that cut my master lacquer: It doesn’t happen often but you may catch something that we didn’t, or just have a question. We have a rigorous Quality Control process for checking tests. One set of stampers can typically press about 1000 regular weight records. Stampers most definitely wear out due to repeated pressing (scratched, split, worn down, etc). Please note: One set of stampers = ~1,000 records Best for very large LP runs, or up to 25,000 records Best for smaller to mid size runs, or up to about 6,000 records The main question to ask is: “How big is my pressing project?” NO exceptions.ĭo I need 2-step plating or 3-step plating? We take quality very seriously, and absolutely do not schedule press production runs without all materials on site. Having your auxiliary materials on site and ready to go when your project is finished with pressing is a must to optimize the safety and quality of your pressing - and gets it into your fan’s hands faster. Once your records come off the presses, it’s important that they are packaged and shipped as quickly as possible to minimize exposure to elements. We physically can’t press your project without the labels and stampers. ![]() Why do all components of the project (print, music, custom materials, etc) need to be present before you start?

In reality, even if we did offer this service, it would end up costing an incredible amount of money to obtain the necessary parts (master lacquers, stampers, set up fees, labor, vinyl materials, labels, paper packaging, etc) - it just wouldn’t make reasonable sense for you to pay for those parts/service to make just one record, any more than it makes sense on our end to set up and schedule a press for just one record to be pressed. Our facility and project flow is designed to accommodate pressing runs of 300 or more records. Unfortunately we cannot press a single record or 'one-off'. The fewer amount of records you press, the higher the cost per record becomes. The minimum amount of records we press is 300 copies. What is the minimum amount of records you will press?
