Many of us have seen recently how music can be used as great therapy with many medical conditions.
Through Lockdown we have seen music bring much joy and consolation to people who are living remotely or housebound; indeed it brings joy to all of us and can raise the spirits at any time.
A fine example of this has come into the spotlight this week.
A piece of music composed from just 4 notes by Paul Harvey aged 80 years who is suffering with dementia, has now been recorded by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
And most importantly given him a new lease of life.

If you feel inspired to record or release one some of your music on CD,DVD or BLU-Ray give us a call and we can help you.
During Lockdown and subsequently in the new world Covid 19 has brought us to, we have been proud to be able to work with the NHS and other health support systems.
By producing DVD’s with vital information and instructions to patients we can communicate with those who have no online access or those who are now unable to attend hospital sessions.
Audio CD /CD Rom are also being used to get vital information and support to the most vunerable in their own homes. If you would like any help or information about doing a similar thing, in order to reach customers remotely call us on 01702 530354 or email una@duplicationcentre.co.uk

If you dont want to just give your music away via Spotify or any other streaming/download facility have a look at our sister company The Digital Publishing Center :
https://www.thedigitalpublishingcenter.com/
It is free to sign up and pay as you go service…if you dont sell anything you won’t pay anything.
Upload your content to our servers and your customers can buy your music/video or information with “buy buttons” from your website or social media pages. We action the digital delivery to your customer once they have paid you and bill you a monthly 10% commission fee.
It’s really worth looking into this as a way to make some money with less live gigs and social gatherings in the current climate.
We are still seeing many “Lockdown Sessions” and recordings being released as albums in their own right.
If you haven’t thought about doing this it’s a great way to bring new material, that you have been working on during the recent Lockdown,to your fans.
If you didnt have too much inspriation during lockdown you could just release a single or EP CD.
We are also still seeing lots of tutorial style DVD’s being duplicated to reach those customers you may have that are following a course via DVD or who can’t get to the classes you usually run.

We live in an age where all things exist on the cloud, but this is only partly true for the text information’s we see when playing CD-Audio disc.
There are in fact two ways to add track text info to a disc:
In the beginning, not long after CDs were released in the 80s, an update was made so small amounts of text could be added to a CD. This text lives in sub channels of the disc so it won’t effect playback, but a CD-TEXT enabled player can read and display the information. Nowadays these players are less common, but still used in most car stereos unless you’re driving one of a few higher end vehicles.
A common assumption is that most computers read CD text, however this is not the case; iTunes, Windows Media Player etc. do not use CD-Text at all. They use a more modern system, the GraceNote – Compact Disc Data Base (CDDB). With this system none of the text used is actually stored on the disc, but all saved on the internet.
When you insert a CD and view through iTunes for example, the computer identifies the disc and then looks it up on the web. If it cannot find a match it will not display the text information, or may display a close match (from another artist!). So even if you have a CD which has CD text, but is not registered with the CDDB, its unlikely the text will show up on a computer at all.
We have customers who have experienced this problem and fortunately its very easy to correct.
We recommend using iTunes as it’s one of the easiest ways to upload your CD information.
The below link will show you how to do this in just a few minutes:
