Looking for some input from those with a little experience in these areas.
Not really how to press a record, more of some technicalities surrounding the pressing of records.
I thank you in advance for any advice you can pass along on any of these topics!
Split Label Releases: Especially International (more specifically w/ 1 other european label for a european band). More-so when sharing a pressing internationaly. I have no experience of European plants or the differences in "the proicess". Never done a split label release at all, but really want to see this band out in the us. Cannot however budget my own master and full pressing w/ everything else I have lined-up.
Band Share / Payment: I have worked it out well on stuff reissued of cassette, and with friends bands on vinyl. Is there a general standard % of the press for the band though? Does it differ when shipping them overseas?, What about represses or when not having to make up a master? What about a payout as opposed to sending the band copies to sell (like if the band broke-up or simply preferred real money).
Label's Share of Digital: Typical label share after digi-distro fees... don't want to the band or my label short.
