Sylvain Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Last year, French musician Daniel Chenevez had a new EP out. It was distributed online, with no physical release. But he also distributed 3D printer files of two of the songs+sleeve so that people could print their own copy. I think this was a brilliant move... http://danielchenevez.fr/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out of Breath Records Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 too bad 3d printed records sound pretty terrible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryantark Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Sylvain, glad you joined, keep making music! Never use the library computers for personal use. Would love to make my own mix tape on vinyl. Would love to recycle 3D printed records I no longer want into new 3D printed records. Would hate to crater the value of rare vinyl. I have never heard a 3D printed record, but I kind of hope it isn't as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry they sound terrible AND fuck up your needle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt123 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 The dimensional tolerances of every 3D printer is different (depending on how much you spend on the printer). This is more of a publicity move than anything else. .005" is typical for higher price range printers. I'm going to say it sounds like a fart at best on most if not all 3D printers.
