Its that time again when I have to start weighing cost/service/quality
of disc makers.

I'm doing a short run of audio CD's. I might do a short run of
audio CD-R's first but probably not.

Any ideas of who to use - or maybe more important, who not to? Also
what is the going best rate these days? It's been about 4 years since
I released anything.

Thanks

What do you mean by short run?

I like the Elite4 from Diskmakers; a robot with a 4bay burner and inkjet
printer. Mac or PC. Uses USB & Firewire. not cheap $4200, but you can put 125
disc on and walk away.

The new Taiyo Yudn Hydro Shield CD-R discs do a great job of NOT smearing and
they have a glossy finish.

Ty Ford

Hey Ty,

How about for having someone press 1000 copies of CD's (not cd-r). Do
you know anyone that is good lately? The people change so fast with
that and I had a hell of a time with Crystal the last time I pressed.

You might try these people:

www.audiosphere.com

We had a run of 1000 CDs made by them for about $1300 including
shipping last year and were very satisfied. I don't know what their
current price is however.

They are right about exact on Oasis. I met the guy from oasis and
though a lot of him but it is always good to have another option.
Diskmakers is a bit of a production but I know they are good too.

Thanks
