Weakly pressed records

[oliver]

This is fucking bullshit. I just ordered a brand new record and when i go to play it on my system at home, you have to crank the gain to max to even HEAR it! Also, the sound you DO get is fuzzy and muffled. BULLSHIT.

gawd. it was a pretty sick tune too...

I think im going to have to e-mail them and ask for a refund or new record or something.

blahg...

plus those records usually wear out alot faster
one of my favorite tracks had that problem and now one of the grooves is cut so its unmixable

i had a whole lp that was very weakly pressed as well so yeah i rarely play it cuz its one SICK lp.... just so i dont wear it out too soon

[oliver]

dude, its retarded.

i can actually SEE how weakly pressed it is. there are barely ANY grooves in the vinyl. you cant even feel the grroves. its basically smooth.

someone fucked up a damn good record.

if youre record is warped in any way you can get a brass weight to put on top of the label so it doesnt skip when youre touchin it

i dont know if that anything to do with the conversation though

[-ak47-]

yeah and i hate it when u get records so warped u cant even fuckin cue it without pressing down on he needle and VERY SOFTLY scratching the cue beat!

[Moon]

yeah warped records and weak pressing are completely different

warped records are manageable since they still play and last for a while (unless it was weakly pressed)

but weak pressing wear out too fawking fast and then they arnt djable anymore

[oliver]

yah, this isnt djable period.

but thanks for the tip on warped records =)
