 @kelly also, typically, I think that most hip hop artists who wanted to add a "vinyl" sound to a non-vinyl sample would simply drop it in an SP-404 or similar and use its excellent vinyl sim, with filters, flutter and wow, and crackle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ01-DDLwV0 @kelly putting things on physical record was as far as I know pretty much limited to "we want to scratch this". Of course once CD turntables came out most people just moved to ripping CD-Rs and using those instead @darius right, yeah, that also tracks, no pun intended. i was specifically musing about post-Paul's Boutique producers who specifically wanted That Warm Sound (as opposed to, probably these days people add a vinyl overlay i'd imagine?) or to sample something that they created out of necessity to avoid copyright problems; this is all already so wonderfully more specific than i expected and i am geeking out hard over here @kelly You can check out the dub-plates.org website circa 2009 where they specifically advertise their dub plate pressing service as "a quick way of giving dj an authentic warm sounding format to play" in addition to its normal utility of being a "rough draft" of what your commercial record will sound like on vinyl https://web.archive.org/web/20090105151910/http://dub-plates.org/ |
