Information Security teams are to monitor all forms of digital media in order to prevent widespread awareness of SCP-3812. Special care must be taken in order to prevent unnecessary exposure to SCP-3812.Ĭurrent containment efforts focus on mitigating SCP-3812’s influence on population centers, as well as research into the full breadth of SCP-3812’s anomalous capabilities in order to establish a more comprehensive containment procedure. The acting MTF GY-66 Team Lead, in conjunction with Site-86 research staff, is allowed fiat authority in regards to any aspect of SCP-3812’s containment. Keter-Class Containment Proposal Brief 2: SCP-3812 is to be constantly monitored by Mobile Task Force Ganymede-66 “Starlight Knights”, who are to maintain a 5km quarantined area of exclusion around SCP-3812. See containment proposal brief below for more information. Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3812 is currently only partially contained 1. It might seem pernickety to some, but seeing as vinyl is pitched as a premium, luxury item, it is my belief that new records should be as close to perfect as possible.SCP-3812, appearing here as a policeman in riot gear, as viewed through a Brunning-Kant Viewer (right). Last on the list is colored vinyl inconsistency, where you might notice small blemishes or differences in color on a solid colored record as pictured below. These full color printed discs make great collector’s items, but unfortunately suffer from additional surface noise caused by the full-sized label applied on top of the standard vinyl disc. And while the jury may still be out on that one, most seem to agree picture discs typically sound worse than standard black or colored vinyl. Where there is likely to be an audible difference is with splattered effect or multi-colored records. In my humble opinion, there is usually little difference in quality between black, and other solid colored vinyl. Parallel to this issue, there is much debate about the color of vinyl records and how this affects the sound quality. How much is too much? Well, that depends on who you ask. Arguably, you can put some surface noise down as just the nature of the beast, but heavy surface noise on a new record is clearly unacceptable. If wet cleaning doesn’t clear things up, you could have a bad pressing. In many cases, new records come contaminated straight from the factory and usually benefit from a light clean. In fact, as a matter of good practice, I wet clean all my new vinyl before the first play. In many circumstances, you should be able to fix this one yourself by wet cleaning the vinyl, either by hand or using a record cleaning machine. Surface noise on brand new wax is another common complaint. (The video below is an extreme example, but demonstrates the problem very clearly). In my experience, it’s usually best to return the record unless you’re particularly determined to make it work. To say this is less than ideal would be an understatement. A record clamp will help you secure the disc in place. The only way to fix the problem is to crudely widen the spindle hole with a knife, and then manually center the record each time you play it. Sadly, if one record is off-center, the whole batch is normally off, meaning that any replacement record will almost certainly have the exact same problem. You’ll hear it loud and clear on longer, more drawn out notes or chords. This glaring pressing error will result in small speed discrepancies as the disc spin causing audible wow and flutter pitch drift. Advertisements Advertisements Off-Center PressingĪ record pressed off-center – meaning the spindle hole is not central to the grooves stamped on the vinyl – is perhaps the worst culprit of them all. Whatever the cause, you should seek a refund or replacement if you notice these on any new record purchases.
