Good questions
12-Inch vinyl FAQs
What is included in this package?
Engineer audio review, cutting, plating and stampers, 180 g black, clear, or opaque white vinyl, white lined anti-static inner sleeves, full-color center labels, your selected jacket, assembly, a poly bag, digital test pressing, multiple QC checks, and domestic shipping.
How long does production take?
Standard production is approximately 6–8 weeks. That timeline begins after your artwork, audio, required documents, and approvals are complete—not the moment you submit an inquiry.
How much music fits on a 12-inch record?
A 12-inch record is the industry standard for full-length albums and most vinyl releases. Playing time depends on RPM and the audio itself; longer sides require tighter grooves, which can reduce volume and increase the potential for distortion.
| Speed | Optimal | Standard | Maximum | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 33⅓ RPM | Up to 18:00 per side | 18:00–22:00 per side | 22:00–24:00 per side | Albums and longer releases |
| 45 RPM | Up to 12:00 per side | 12:00–14:00 per side | 14:00–15:00 per side | Shorter releases and maximum fidelity |
Send us your final track lengths and we’ll help you choose the right approach.
Do I need vinyl mastering?
Not every project needs new mastering, but your audio does need to translate well to the physical format. We can review what you have and help determine whether vinyl mastering is the useful next step.
Is shipping included?
Domestic shipping is included in these package totals. Transit time is separate from the 6–8 week production timeline. Contact us for international shipping.
Can I choose specialty vinyl or different packaging?
Yes. Ask us about specialty vinyl, upgraded print, inserts, inner sleeves, obi strips, numbered cards, and custom packaging. We’ll price the configuration based on what you actually want to make.
