"Pressing Vinyl"

In this town, for the last 15 years if you were really arrived as a band, you put out vinyl rather than a CD. Its that way in a lot of bigger metro areas these days.

Kids drive the market, not us fuddy-duddies :)

Precisely. And when the Lumber sexuals decide craft made beer and vinyls are out, where to next? :)

Atmasphere ;

I remember that , back in the day , CD's used to have different designations AAD , ADD & DDD denoting the analog and digital processing involved . This was printed on the back of the jacket .
Is there some type of designation for the all analog process ?

Whart,

MoFi records are pressed at RTI in California. Not sure if they use more than one plant. But I do know the wait time for many reissues is often absurd, which could be a function of both using RTI exclusively for quality consistency and having limited mastering equipment capability as new projects go underway.

Act- RTI for sure; don't know if they used any others. I was addressing an earlier post that suggested MoFi had its own pressing plant. I don't buy many remasters or "audiophile" records these days, but of the 'new' MoFi's I have, the quality is good and pretty consistent. That old MoFi vinyl formulation that JVC used was really as good as it got; I rarely listen to them because of the EQ (those I bought many of back in the day b/c it was one of the few "audiophile" labels that had rock music as opposed to sonic wallpaper). I know the delays were one reason Chad decided to go his own way. His stuff has been pretty good too, though, again, my experience is limited- I have some of his older stuff pressed on RTI (test pressings) that are great!
