FAQ

Please use .wav .mp3 .m4a Please remember that the better quality your source material, the better quality your custom vinyl record will be.

Yes. With our partner MixPixie we are licensed for 46 Million songs. Now you can simply upload songs from your hard drive and we’ll cut them directly to disc.  The artists and labels get paid their royalties through our partner MixPixie.

If there is anything that we cannot obtain the rights to we’ll let you know.

Finally, please don’t rip audio from YouTube. It usually sounds bad and we don’t like it. If that’s the only source of your audio, please grab as high a quality audio conversion as you possibly can and we’ll try our very best!

We apply signal processing to the audio to ensure the best quality playback. Audio should be mastered before uploading to the vinyl maker. If you are cutting copyright material this will have already been done so you don’t need to do anything

No.  Spotify is a streaming service and so we are unable to process the audio through our equipment.

1. First you’ll need some files.  The best are .wav or mp3.  If you don’t already own them then you’ll need to download them from the amazon digital download store.  Then head over to the shop page and choose custom vinyl record with art, or custom vinyl record – no art.

2. Next, choose the size of of your record.  Vinyl records have a physical time limit determined by their size.  We have a 12 min max per side on a  12, 7 mins per side on a 10 and 4 mins per side for a 7 inch vinyl record.

3. Now pick the colour of the vinyl you’d like to create – we offer black or clear.

4. Now, pick your artwork.  You can select form a list of pre-designed options where we’ll input your text or you can go completely custom and design your own using our vinyl record sleeve templates.  We email these after you check out but you can always get ahead of the game and start making your record sleeve

5. Nearly there.  Now input your tittles (these are words that will appear on your vinyl’s sleeve and centre labels)

7. Click upload.

You can download the amazon’s digital downloads store or google play’s digital downloads store if you don’t already own them. Then upload them to us. Please be aware that streaming services are not the same as digital downloads. Services such as spotify and apple music do not have files that you can upload.

Yes.  In order to do this on an iPhone or iOS device you’ll need icloud drive enabled.  Then you will need to move the files you’d like to upload to us on to your iCloud Drive.  It is more straight forward ordering form a PC though which is what we recommend.
