Back in Full Production Today: 3rd May 2022
Tuesday, May 3rd, 2022Digital Publishing:29th April 2022
Friday, April 29th, 2022Did you know that we offer a platform for you to sell your digital products whether it be music, information or videos from your own website.
We developed this platform originally to give musicians the opportunity to actually make some money from providing a downloadable product …rather than it being free on Spotify. This idea then snowballed to being developed into something that can be used by anyone who wants their customers to access a product via a download.
So for example we sell Tutorial DVDs , Dance Shows ,Craft Making Lessons….as well as the many Music Tracks , Albums EP’s and DVD’s our customers upload, for their fans to purchase .
How does this work?
You set up your products and send us your content online or by post.
Your customers purchase your products by download or physical delivery .
Customers check out and pay through our payment facility and the funds go directly to your paypal account .
You pay us a monthly fee depending on the payment plan you choose with us.
If you dont sell anything you dont pay anything.
Have a look here at the website and if you need any more information call us on 01702 530354 and speak to Martin.
CD Text / Metadata: 22nd April 2022
Friday, April 22nd, 2022When the CD information or CD text is displayed on a computer, the information is coming from an online database. The database is usually Gracenote (the more common) or AllMusic.
The Gracenote database serves CD information to: Apple Music, WinAmp, Quintessential Media Player, and Finder (Mac OS). The AllMusic database serves CD information to: Windows Media Player, Rhapsody, and Real Music Player.
Registration on these databases must be completed by you for CD information/text to display.
You can find further information on how to submit your CD on the below links.
Selling Your CD’s and DVD’s: 7th April 2022
Thursday, April 7th, 2022We are finding that more and more, selling your CD’s in hard copy at live venues and gigs of any kind, is a vital source of income for artists.
For musicians it is usually just audio CD that they sell, but an idea worth considering is a live DVD as well.
Not many bands sell DVDs at music gigs and would be a very different and exciting piece of merchandise.
You can have a DVD in a single card wallet …just like a CD…so it is no more expensive to produce here..just few pence more for the disc.
You can get an instant price here:

Or you can call and chat to us for help and advice on 01702 530354.
We look forward to speaking to you.
Proofing Your Artwork: 30th March 2022
Wednesday, March 30th, 2022We offer both soft ( electronic) and hard copy proofs to you, free of charge.
Some customers just want to visualise or in the case of a hard copy, see the quality of their order and how it will actually look when printed.
So for example this customer wanted to see the colour match of his disc to the digipak:
It can be the case that printed parts will not exactly match the colour of the same colour upload, when its printed on a disc…just the fact that they are printed on different mediums can affect the tone of the colour sometimes.
In the case of a hard copy proof we print 2 copies and hold 1 here as a control and post the other to you by Royal Mail.
You then have the option to approve straight away if you are happy with the print or to alter it by uploading new artwork to us.
We will always work with you to get the best result possible for your order.
Not everyone wants or needs this so if you do, just need to mention that you would like this in the notes (which is a free field text section) as you check out.
We have all sorts of other advice in our artwork section here:
https://www.duplicationcentre.co.uk/artwork.html
Or you can call us on 01702 530354 and we will be happy to help you.

Vibe of the Week:24th January 2022
Monday, January 24th, 2022As we approach the end of January i saw this short reflection and thought it was worth sharing:
Try to take life day by day, so that you don’t become overwhelmed.
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet.
Be grateful for the little things.
Enjoy nature.
And try not to get stressed over things you can’t control.
We’ll help you maintain this with our professional CD, DVD & BLU-RAY duplication.
Real people here to help you with your project every step of the way.
Call or email us for advice:
