Swansea CD duplication, ready for the EP launch.

Plan backwards from the gig date

Swansea has two scenes running on parallel tracks and they both need CDs on the merch table the night of the gig. Sin City on High Street for the indie-and-louder end. Patti Pavilion out on Mumbles Road for bigger touring nights. Cinema & Co on Castle Street for the cabaret and intimate folk shows. Tŷ Tawe on Christina Street holding it down for the Welsh-language community and the regular Welsh-medium gigs. Add the Gower acoustic circuit, the Sea2Shore weekenders on the Mumbles coast, and Swansea Uni pushing fresh student bands through every term, and you’ve got a release calendar that’s never quiet.

Order today, send your audio and artwork, and you’ve got finished CDs in Swansea 13 working days later — twelve days for duplication and full-colour CD printing, one day with Royal Mail Special Delivery to any SA postcode. That covers a Sin City Friday or a Patti Pavilion Saturday comfortably from a three-week-out order. If your gig’s tighter, we’ve got an express slot you can book for £30, but message us first to confirm capacity — we don’t take express orders we can’t deliver on.

If you’d rather see and feel the print quality before committing to a full run, order a proof copy — a fully-assembled CD using your own artwork and audio, posted to any SA postcode. £4.99 covers Royal Mail postage. No commitment to a full run.

How long does CD duplication to Swansea take?

Door-to-door · including next-day Royal Mail

Thirteen working days door-to-door — twelve in production from artwork approval, then one with Royal Mail Special Delivery to any SA postcode. Replication adds four days for glassmastering. Booklets and 6/8-panel sleeves add a day or two. Bilingual artwork takes the same time as monolingual — the proofing round catches any text issues either way.

What artists say about us.

Real bands · real releases

From first contact to delivery, the team made the whole process feel easy. They took my artwork seriously, sent proofs back quickly, and the finished CDs look and sound spot on. Would absolutely use them again.

Excellent service from the initial steps to my 200 albums being delivered to the doorstep. Mega happy with the CDs — great price, great quality printing and audio. I couldn’t recommend this service enough.

A fantastic job producing CDs for our album. I had a short time frame to get them produced in, and the company managed to get high-quality CDs sent to us in plenty of time before our deadline.

06 / Common questions

Swansea CD duplication FAQ.

Got a question? Call 07769 383 510
How long does CD duplication to Swansea take?
Twelve working days for production plus one working day for Royal Mail Special Delivery to a Swansea address. Replication takes 16 working days. Add a couple of days if you’re including booklets or 6/8-panel sleeves.
Which Swansea postcodes do you deliver to?
All SA postcodes — SA1 through SA13 — covering the city centre and Maritime Quarter (SA1), Sketty and Uplands (SA2), Mumbles and the Gower Peninsula (SA3), Cockett and Penlan (SA5), Morriston and Llansamlet (SA6, SA7), and out to Neath (SA10, SA11), Port Talbot (SA12, SA13) and Ystradgynlais (SA9). Royal Mail Special Delivery covers every SA postcode the same way — next working day, tracked, signed-for, no surcharge.
Can you handle Welsh-language tracklists and artwork?
Yes — and it’s the same fee, same turnaround as any other release. Welsh diacritics (â, ê, î, ô, û, ŵ, ŷ and the circumflex generally) print correctly when fonts are outlined in your supplied artwork file, which our templates walk you through. Welsh tracklists for CD-Text embedding are no problem. The proofing round catches anything before press — we’ll send a digital proof so you can check every accent, diacritic and word, and only when you approve does it go to production. Bilingual booklets work the same way. We’ve handled releases on Sain, Recordiau Côsh Côsh and independent Welsh-medium labels without a hitch.
What’s the minimum order for CD duplication Swansea?
25 units for duplication, 300 units for replication. Most Swansea indie releases land between 50 and 200 units — enough for a Sin City or Patti Pavilion merch table, a Bandcamp run, and a handful for radio (Radio Cymru and BBC Radio Wales included).
Can I order a sample before committing to a full run?
Yes. Order a proof copy — a fully-assembled CD using your own artwork and audio. £4.99 covers Royal Mail postage, we cover the rest. The proof copy is standalone — you only order a full run if you want to. Particularly useful if you want to double-check Welsh diacritics print exactly as they should.
Are your CDs eco-friendly?
Our Ecopak and Card Sleeve formats are fully recyclable, printed on 350gsm and 300gsm card with no plastic tray. We’ve been pressing eco-friendly CDs since 2018 and it’s the default for most of our Swansea clients — the Gower acoustic crowd and the Welsh-language indie scene both tend to lead with Ecopak.
Can I get my Swansea order mastered too?
Yes. We work with mastering engineer Tom S. Ray. Send us your mix and we’ll handle mastering, duplication, ISRC and CDDB in one go.
Do you charge for ISRC and CD-Text embedding?
No. ISRC code embedding and CD-Text are included with every order, along with audio transfers and artwork amendments. No bolt-ons.
How can I pay for my Swansea order?
Card, PayPal or Klarna at checkout. All major cards accepted. Klarna lets you spread the cost over instalments at no extra charge.
