Hey All,
I'm working with a new project and we've all got the itch to press the record to vinyl... even if in a small, limited run. Our plan is do something similar to Radiohead: when you buy the record, you get a download code. Log on, and you can download mp3's for the iPod or what-have-you, so that you get the great analog vinyl, and don't loose the portable mp3 audio. So, here's the barrage of questions:
1. Mastering - do you have to get your audio mastered differently for pressing vinyl than you would for pressing CD's?
2. Duplication - i've found only a few vinyl plants that are accessible to indie artists... suggestions?
3. Sanity - are we nuts? I've got John Mayer's Continuum on both MP3 and vinyl... and i so enjoy the vinyl. But are we nuts?
Thanks for your help... i look forward to your responses.
