NOTATIO

Hi folks,

I'm looking for a decent (online) place to send my PDF scores and receive prints up to or close to the standard of G Henle or Baerenreiter, or Schirmer.

What do you folks advise?

I got outstanding results by Halstan, exactly two years ago: https://www.halstan.de/

You can choose the paper, the binding and so on. Great black print. They are the external facility publishers as Baerenreiter and Henle use for printing their editions. I am not sure if they still provide such service for privates and for small runs. I ordered just two copies of my 60-pages score.

I have read good opinions on Aurioprint as well, though I haven't tested myself: https://aurioprint.onepage.me/

Both facilities are located in Germany.

This is great.

Happen to know rates and overhead cost? I imagine I need to order 50 or so at a time.

Are there any places in the US?

As far as I know, Halstan is a German company having its facilities in UK and in US. Check with them. https://www.halstan.us/

Here are my data:
format: 24 cm x 32 cm (9.45in x 12,6in)
binding: saddle stitch
Cover: 240 g/sqm (designed by me)
paper: 100 g/sqm
pages: 80

2 copies.

I payed 57 euros with shipping (Germany to Italy).

I think 50 copies could benefit some discount.

I'm pretty sure Subito can do it and I've worked with them on projects before (although quite some years ago):

I've heard good things about Black Ribbon too, but don't have any personal experience:

The size is called NE (New Edition) and is very pleasant for making parts.

Very close to 10 X 13, which is common in the US (like a Kalmus or Lucks orchestral part).
