black vinyl or coloured vinyl?

Because of the best audio characteristics (noise, crackle, possible cutoff frequency etc.) black vinyl is normally used for duplication.

Coloured vinyl is manufactured by using clear vinyl with colour additives. This leads to eye catching results for the disc. But keed in mind, that you have to accept some more noise and crackle.



picture disc

The most amazing kind of vinyl disc is the picture disc. Here you can produce any kind of colour and picture you want by using the offset print technology.

First offset printed labels in size of the record are adhered on a special carrier material. Then this inner material of the record is coated with clear vinyl and finally the record grooves are printed into the disc.
