Top 5 things you must know for CD Duplication Toronto

1. Need a master disc & creating the master disc for CD duplication Toronto – You simply have to make sure that your master disc is exactly how you want it to be on the copies. The duplicator will duplicate exactly what’s on the master disc you provide the duplication company. The copies are a mirror image of your master disc so it needs to be precise. Check your master to be sure it’s a perfect recording with all data verified so that the end user will be pleased. Here’s more information about the CD mastering and the manufacturing process.
2. Relevant artwork – An attractive artwork package is going to make a big difference in catching people’s attention. Make sure you understand how to design for offset printing and for silk-screening. Use the correct artwork templates and make sure you proofread everything. Always ask for a digital proof so you can double check everything before it goes for print.
3. How many CD’s you need? – For small quantities in a short amount of time duplication is ideal because the process offers quick turnaround times. Discs can also be produced in much smaller quantities, generally speaking 500 and under. Duplication involves loading content onto a master CD-R. The CD-R master is then loaded into a duplication tower where a laser ‘burns’ the master discs directly onto blank discs. CD Replication is for more larger quantities with more flexible timelines.

It’s very important to have visually captivating packaging in order to catch the eye of people, so get it right with some great artwork. Ask for advice about the best way to package your CD’s. Allow enough time for the design and print process.
5. Distribution – if your CD’s are going to retail make sure barcodes are on the packaging. Also make sure you are using packaging that will keep the disc safe for distribution whether its for handing out a trade show or mail-outs.
