Europadisc DMM

Europadisk was started in 1977 by Jim Shelton as a vinyl master plating facility using the latest advanced European techniques. Vinyl record pressing & packaging facilities were added soon after that. The Neumann Direct Metal Mastering VMS-84 lathe was added in 1987, which along with the SP79 transfer console, SAL84 cutting rack, and Neve DTC formed the backbone for one of the finest vinyl mastering rooms of the time. Lyrec cassette was also added at this time. Pressing, silk screening, packaging, glass mastering facilities, and graphic design and film output facilities were added in the 90's, and in 2004 a DVD press was the final addition to what was essentially a complete one stop manufacturing facility under a single roof. After 28 years in business Europadisk at 5:00pm on Friday July 23 in 2005 officially closed for good.
