assemblyworker Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Not sure if is the right place to post, move if necessary... Does anyone know of a good place to get one off presses done? I know Dubstudio used to these a few years back. It's for one project so not going to get a DVS system. Cheers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Symatic Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 i've used dub studio about 4 times. they've all been good cuts, but to be fair i've not had any from anyone else so can't compare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assemblyworker Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 Cheers guys, will look into the Carvery. Good to know people have had experience of the cuts. A bit worried about getting one done and the record being gash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Symatic Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 with dubstudio he'll recut if you're really not happy. i imagine they'll have the same deal at Carvery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldielocksnthethreebrares Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Most good mastering houses will recut if your not happy. But it'll have to be their fault, if the bass is too low for the overall sound or comes in too late etc then I'd assume thats your fault. If its distorted etc they should fix it.These are one off 'cuts', not 'presses'. The clue is in the name, records are pressed in a press, dubplates or lacquers are cut on a lathe.A dubplate is an im-perfect lacquer & fragile as fuck!I believe those scratchable dubplates are cut onto polycarbonate laxen. A dubplate wouldn't really work as good as its an aluminium disc coated with a thin lacquer layer - very soft, scratches very easily & quite heavy. I give a lacquer about two weeks use use scratching!Depends on who cuts it and what they cut it on etc (how well it'll sound)... Lacquers, which are not supposed to be played, sound fucking amazeballs though, but once you played it its fucked, cant do anything with it (pressing wise).
