I present to you the only copy of the very first vinyl containing some cult music from Amstrad CPC games! :)

This vinyl was produced by Yado Vinyl (France).
I simply sent my audio files (in .wav format) along with the artwork for the cover, and a week later, I received my personalized vinyl.
The advantage is that you can order them individually.

Thanks! But my question was more about how you recorded the wav. Is it from a real CPC?

I downloaded the audio files in .ym format from CPC-Power and then converted them to .wav.

Ohhh nooooo... :( Sorry to say this, but this defeats the purpose of project. YM is the worst format for what you try to do.
- YM may have frame skips, wrong loops, and simply sometimes cannot capture the subtlety of the original player in some (corner) cases.
- The engine you used is not the hardware: especially if you used the CPC-Power engine which, I'm sorry to say, is not very good and far from what a real CPC sounds like.

PM me if you want the WAV files for these games, from the real hardware. I have already recorded them for the CPC Scene Radio.
