Jeid Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Hi, My band are planning on recording an EP in the next couple of months and we're trying to hunt down the best place to duplicate our CD's. Does anyone have anywhere that they would recommend we check out?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam 45 Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Depends how many you are making. Getting them glass mastered can be pretty expensive, making it hard to return a profit. My advice is buy completely blank CD's, buy some labels for them, and sit down and burn them yourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeid Posted October 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 We're looking for runs of about 200 with Jewel cases and inserts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeid Posted October 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 We can do the inserts ourselves, we'd just like proper print on the cd.anyone else got any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam 45 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 we'd just like proper print on the cd.anyone else got any suggestions?You can do that on your computer using Roxio Label Creator or you could buy a wee printer, that prints onto your CD. Uses a large amount of ink though.Just look through the internet. Loads of companies do it. How much are you planning on charging for this EP?

Jeid Posted October 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 We're planning on making it as cheap as possible. We like giving things away for free. But possibly a couple of quid each i reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alkaline Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 Sorry its taken ages to get back to you, we used Gillies Audio. They were very quick, reasonably priced and gave a good end product. Its worth checking them out at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MDP Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 I was looking at one of them. Bet it drinks ink like a motherfucker!not really, all i used was red and black, and it didnt even use up both cartdrides doing 100...and because there are 7 different cartridges on them, u arent throwing away any ink when 1 color runs out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam 45 Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 I just got a casio CW-75 and have been printing on the CD's myself. Looks well professional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
