The Modernization of Vinyl Record Pressing
Vinyl records are back, and as demand continues to grow for the wax format, pressing plants struggle to keep up. This has been the story of the last five years. 2017 is a year that brings the introduction of modern pressing machinery and true innovation to the industry. This panel will discuss how modern pressing and innovation will change the manufacturing process, and how artists, consumers, and record labels will be the biggest winners.
