| Post subject: | How To Reissue A Record on Vinyl |
Hi all, Just joined the the forum but longtime Intrada fan here--currently listening to The Last Starfighter Expanded; amazing! I was hoping somebody could shed some light on information about reissuing records on Vinyl for a limited special edition release of like 1K to 5K copies (or less, like 500). I've been trying to find some information on this throughout the web but I have found nothing at all, not even a hint. I've been playing around with this idea for some time now just out of pure love for film music and the lack of film scores available on Vinyl but I have no idea if this is even possible because of the lack of knowledge I have on the cost of rights, mastering and pressing would be. Appreciate any information or if you could point me to the right direction. Thank you! |

Welcome to the forum, pgrassini. Intrada is going back to selling soundtracks on vinyl, so people publicly disclosing the ins and outs of the process on their forum might not be in their best interest. Vinyl reissues from others could also squash their plans for respective CD reissues. I will say that the vinyl soundtrack market already seems a bit saturated given its niche with companies like Intrada and La-La Land now becoming part of it. |

Your question was a good one, though. Perhaps the answers to questions of licensing costs comes through contacting the rights holders of the albums of interest and seeing if they buy into your business model. Manufacturing information should be easy to obtain for cases where you would control that aspect. The few vinyl manufacturers out there have said to be on a swamped schedule due to demand in this new wave of interest. Mastering for vinyl is of course a special consideration that many companies and newer customers don't seem to care much about, as it's presumably mostly about the artwork and method in which the records are played. I have no doubt that Intrada will master for the format in a most proper manner. |

I would prefer labels to get back to the future... SACD or DVD Audio, or Blu-ray Audio. Instead we get stuck with old technologies like vinyls and CDs... |

Hybrid SACDs would be nice; that format is still going really strong in classical music as many labels still do releases on it. DVD Audio is dead. Blu-ray Audio is certainly the future though (and unlike DVD-A, it plays normally on regular Blu-ray players). Yavar |

Talking about vinyl, I remember hearing YEARS ago that some company was going to start selling a record player that used a LASER to play LPs, and that it would sound as good as a CD.... anyone remember that? |
