Jobby Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I placed my order September 8th and my vinyls were signed. The whole thing is pretty weird. I ordered mine about half an hour after they were made available so if mine aren't signed, I'll be pretty miffed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edeslash Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Took a look at Fabri's pics - prepare for disappointment: the scribbles are identical. I'll just repost this here for clarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabriPav Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I'll just repost this here for clarity. They definitely aren't. TT of Matt, @ and the whole AIR are definitely different. The pics don't make justice because it's hard to capture it properly with the flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halo eighteen Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 It's just vinyl etching - completely common and normal. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_a_vinyl_etching Matrix Number/Vinyl Etchings - Matrix numbers are alphanumeric codes stamped or scrawled into the run out groove (inside rim) of a record that indicates one or several of the following: record label catalog number, mastering codes, stamper codes, name or initials of the mastering engineer, and/or ciphers indicating the pressing plant or mastering house used. Sometimes there are inscriptions or phrases (often humorous in nature) written in the run out groove. These are scribed or stamped by the mastering engineer as directed by the record label or the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clairbear Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Yep, that's the liquid crystal thermal reactive lid in action! Looks great! We had our first hot day of spring here yesterday and it changed colour throughout the day - went from black/brown to green - and that was just from being inside the house!

They warned about that. If you keep it in direct and constant sunlight/heat it'll stop working after a while. What are people doing with their boxsets though? Are you going to mount the vinyls and artwork? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessicaSarahS Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 We had our first hot day of spring here yesterday and it changed colour throughout the day - went from black/brown to green - and that was just from being inside the house! Nice! What are people doing with their boxsets though? Are you going to mount the vinyls and artwork? I'm going to frame the artwork, but I'm listening to the vinyls. After I play with the box for a bit, it'll go into my closet with the other boxsets that I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 So in cold weather, will the box go blue? It's quite sad how excited I am to mess about with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumosasuke Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 So in cold weather, will the box go blue? It's quite sad how excited I am to mess about with it Nah, it only changes colour with applied heat. From Room temperature to hottest it goes Black->Red->Yellow->Green->Blue. I tried making the Muse EP cover art with mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandertheninja Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Beware that if you keep it constantly under the sun, after a while it will stop "working". Really? Not cool. It's my new toy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerotec Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I received my boxset this morning. The Making of DVD is great but Save Me, Liquid State and Follow Me are missing. Are they hidden or something ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furygirl Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 It's just that my vinyl player is broken at the moment Do people not call them record players anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, I guess no one calls them records anymore anyway. They're "vinyls." I have boxes of vinyls in my basement and no vinyl player to play them with!

Blype Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Got an email today about HD downloads. It just says its available monday gmt. I hope it starts at midnight 'cause thats nine or ten in the morning here, and I'll need all the time I can get. Might even get my first listen on HD before my boxset arrives. Also, it says HD files won't work in itunes. Any tech savvy people know if its possible to get the files on an ipod? Edit: me and my stupid questions.

To make them work on iTunes/iPod you need to convert them from FLAC to ALAC. There's plenty of software which does that http://www.bigasoft.com/articles/how-to-convert-flac-to-apple-lossless-audio.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
