NEWAUDIO Injection Molded Vinyl Record Are Here! Listen to One and Compare to a "Standard" Pressing

Описание: REVISED AUDIO! I'm truly sorry that a software glitch either with my Lynx HiLo A/D converter or its compatibility with the Vinyl Studio program I use to manage vinyl recording caused the recording to switch from direct through HiLo to the computer's microphone! That's never before happened so I didn't notice. This REVISED video contains DIRECT recordings done using a different older computer that worked fine. Truly sorry about that!

The German company Sonopress last year announced that it was developing an injection molded vinyl record production process, calling the resulting record an "EcoRecord". The environmentally friendly process is similar to how optical media like laserdiscs, CDs, DVDs and Blu-ray discs are manufactured (Sonopress developed 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray technology).

With optical disc popularity giving way to streaming its both ironic and sensible for the company to re-imagine its technology in service of vinyl— the sole disc growth market.

This year Sonopress rolled out EcoRecords, with an order from Warner Music Group for a Liam Gallagher and John Squire release. Numerous orders have rolled in for EcoRecords, which are pressed using recylable PET (polyethylene terephthalate) instead of PVC.

I got ahold of a Kylie Minogue record pressed both hydraulically and injection molded. It's hardly the kind of music that will allow you to really hear any major sonic differences, but minor ones are interesting. No guessing games here: the first one is hydraulic, the second is injection molded.
