New color vinyl albums to package your cassettes!

Posted on April 29, 2021 by duplication.ca

Looking to add some flash to your cassette packaging? Maybe even give your next tape release the deluxe package treatment? You’re in luck– We’ve expanded our selection of Vinyl Albums for Cassette with four new funky colours!

These vinyl albums for cassette hold one tape, resembling classic audiobook packaging. They have an outerlayer film that allows for large trapsheet cover artwork. The size of these albums really makes your cassette stand out in comparison to the classic Norelco case packaging. Dimensions are 7 1/8″ x 4 5/8″ x 9/16″, so in height they’re somewhere in between a DVD and Blu-Ray case, but much shorter in width. They look awesome stacked in a bookshelf!

Inside you have a tray to securely place your audio cassette. There’s also space in the inside cover with enough room to house a booklet, liner notes, or other goodies like pins, patches, or stickers. You can go all out with this packaging! The album snaps closed like a DVD case, keeping all contents safe and secure.

In addition to these new colours we still have stock of the classic black or transparent Vinyl Albums for Cassette. Transparent albums allow for double-sided printing on your trapsheet, so you can maximize the artwork and design. These are available for purchase on our cassette duplication calculator for easy ordering. If you wish to combine cassette duplication with any of the colour vinyl albums, just mention it in the ‘notes’ section of your order, and we’ll modify the quote!

Silkscreen Disc Printing for CD, DVD, and Blu-Ray

Posted on April 20, 2021 by duplication.ca

Silkscreen disc printing is not only the standard approach to CD graphics, but the best quality print you can get for your album. Compared to inkjet print you’ll see better colour accuracy, waterproof protection so the ink won’t run when wet, and no risk of bleeding or banding. At Duplication.ca we offer a number of silkscreen disc printing options, starting at 1-colour print all the way to full CMYK printing. Have trouble visualizing it? Let’s break it down for you!

1 color silkscreen disc printing

1-Colour Silkscreen

The simplest and most affordable option, ideal for when you’re only interested in text (artist title, album title, tracklisting, whatever you have in mind!) We can print any colour on silver disc, or use a one-colour flood with a silver disc knockout like pictured above.

2 color silkscreen disc printing

2-Colour Silkscreen

This is a good option if you want text or an illustration with a solid colour background. With 2-colour silkscreen you immediately see the advantage over inkjet printing. Solid colour floods without any streaks, and only for pennies more than 1-colour silkscreen. This is the best value silkscreen print option.

3 color silkscreen disc printing

3-Colour Silkscreen

With 3-colour silkscreen you can begin designing much more complex images and illustrations for your CD artwork, without the bleeding you may find with inkjet print.

CMYK + White silkscreen disc printing

CMYK + White Silkscreen

If you want to print a photo image, CMYK is the way to go. First thing we do is add a white flood so every colour can pop off the disc. From there we have no limitations, we can print press photos or any design you’d like, just like a major label release.

Now that you know more about the silkscreen process, we leave the choice to you. No matter which option you choose you will receive professional quality silkscreen printing from our dedicated and eagle-eyed technicians. For designing tips you can check out our silkscreen tutorial page. If you have further questions simply email us, we’ll get back to you as soon as we can!
