  • 10 inch: Maxis, transfers of 78 rpm records and shellacs
  • 12 inch: LP and Maxi Single


High quality PVC/vinyl with 2mm thickness is used. For an extra charge of 25,- € it is also possible to produce lacquer records from Apollo.
It is possible to press a record with 45 as well as with 33 rpm (45/33 rpm). On request also with 78rpm or halfspeed (the studio time required for this will be charged separately (see studio prices).

Every single plate is checked and specially produced for the cutter. The result is extreme durability, which also makes it suitable for scratching. Transparent vinyl with a thickness of 1.0 mm can also be produced, but can unfortunately only be recorded on one side.

Technique:
Professional equipment is used for cutting.
Both a Neumann vms66 and a vinyl recorder cutter are used here
Once the conversion has been completed on an RME D/A converter, only analog equipment is used in the signal path. The studio is convinced that every digital component introduced reduces the frequency response to nineteen-point-something.
The rasterization of a continuous sound signal into discrete values is something unnatural and becomes audible and perceptible as harshness, especially in the treble range. Certainly you can't work miracles, but the analogue treatment of the signal makes it subjectively possible to "renaturalize" it (©mex, 2004), even if the original came from a digital source.
