Vinyl Pressing Services in Australia

 Low minimums — Vinyl pressing from 100 units

No matter what size record you’re after, we can press your vinyl from just 100 units.

And, with our full range of packaging available from this unit amount, your vinyl project will come out just the way you want it.

Exact Quantities

Many vinyl suppliers charge for extra vinyl that may be produced with your order. We don’t.

What you order is what we deliver and we will never charge you for overs.

It means the price that is confirmed is the price that’s paid. It’s a nice and simple way to help you budget for your vinyl project.

Cutting / Metal Work / Stampers

At Impress Vinyl we try and make it as easy as possible for you to get great sounding vinyl exactly as you imagine.

We take care of everything: cutting, metal work and lacquers. All you need to do is supply your audio as a digital file.

Arranged your own cutting? No problem — we’ll work with your lacquer to create incredible vinyl record pressings.

To maximise your sound, it’s vital to supply your audio in the best way possible. Refer to our audio data sheet for tips and specs.

Test Pressing — Physical

The process of vinyl pressing is analogue and has inherent limitations, so listening to your product before pressing your full run is recommended.

We’ll supply two pressings of your project to ensure you’re satisfied with its sound and quality.

Our aim is for your record to sound as loud and as close a representation as possible to your supplied audio, therefore, testing is not for adjusting your recording.

Should you need to resupply audio due to an audio-related error, costs will be incurred.
Should the issue lie within the cutting and pressing process, new test pressing will be supplied at no extra cost.

Our usual turnaround for vinyl runs with physical test pressing: 8–10 weeks. Due to COVID we are experiencing delays + 16 weeks. Please call to discuss.

Test Pressing — Digital

Speed-up the lead time on your vinyl record pressing while minimising any risk.

A physical test pressing is still created but rather than shipping it, we create a digital recording of it that you can listen to and approve.

This is also great for people who don’t have a quality system to listen to their physical test pressings. Our engineer will record it on their system for your listening pleasure.

Our usual turnaround for vinyl runs with digital test pressing: 6–8 weeks. Due to COVID we are experiencing delays + 16 weeks. Please call to discuss.

No Test Pressing

Pressed for time? Although not recommended — we get it. Skip the test pressing and head straight to manufacture.

While there’s no room for recourse if there are issues with your pressing, this will drastically reduce the lead time of your project.

Our usual turnaround with no test pressing: 4–6 weeks. Due to COVID we are experiencing delays + 16 weeks. Please call to discuss.

Custom Slipmats

Looking to add to your pre-sale bundle or merchandise range? Custom printed slipmats are a great, low cost, high impact and desirable addition to any offering.

Fantastic results can be achieved in full colour, in both photos or vector images.

Our slipmats are 40gm glazed bottom slipmats are currently only available in 12 inch size.

Artwork set up / Graphic design

Our templates page has PDF versions of all the artwork that you need to complete your vinyl project. These can be followed to help you set up your artwork and once completed can be uploaded with your order to be checked and approved by our art department.

Stuck on your design or don’t quite know how to set-up print-ready artwork? Our graphic design team will get your project unstuck and across the finish line. Book and sit in our studio for help from our in-house designers.

Or if you prefer to work via correspondence, that works too. Let’s get the most out of your project from the start.

How Much Does it Cost for Press Vinyl in Australia ?

  The price of pressing vinyl will vary from plant to plant and from country to country.  At Impress Vinyl we specialise in pressing vinyl for the Australian and New Zeland market so all the following information will be in AUD and based on the vinyl being picked up in Melbourne. Our pricing works by including all the cutting, metalwork, and setup costs in the vinyl costs.  Therefore these are things that don’t really need to be taken into consideration when getting your vinyl pressed but will come into play if you ever get a repress as some of these costs are one-off fees so won’t need to be paid for again (making represses of you vinyl more economical than your initial pressing, but more on that later). There are also many other factors that can affect the cost of your vinyl, record weight, size, and colour, type of cover and of course the amount of vinyl you will be ordering.  For the sake of keeping this post as simple as possible, we will look at the most popula...
