Lathe-safe. Streaming-ready. No guesswork.
We've been cutting dubs and pressing plates since before the millennium. Your track deserves engineers who actually know the sound.
Optimised for the grooves. No skips. No distortion. Ready to cut.
Warmth from hardware. Precision from digital. The best of both worlds.
2-3 days standard. 24-hour rush available. No compromises on quality.
Optimised specifically for lathe-cut and pressed vinyl
Sub frequencies centred and controlled to prevent groove-skipping and ensure clean tracking on any turntable.
Harsh sibilance tamed to prevent distortion during the cutting process without losing brightness.
Wide mixes narrowed in the low-end to mono, keeping bass punchy and cut-friendly.
No brick-wall limiting. We maintain dynamics that translate beautifully to vinyl's warm character.
Loudness and EQ adjusted based on your side runtime — longer sides need different treatment.
Pre-emphasis applied correctly so your cutting engineer can work with a properly prepared master.
