REALTIME CASSETTE DUPLICATION was founded by Philip "Pip" Mc Caslin in 1986. After searching in vain for a high-quality vendor for his own music projects, he set up the company to provide short-run audiophile-quality tape duplication and related services to small-time musicians and independent record labels. Early clients included many of the original Subpop artists (Nirvana, Mudhoney, Soundgarden, Tad and just about every other Jack Endino effort; Green Monkey Records (Green Pajamas, Arms Akimbo, The Bombardiers, Prudence Dredge); other local groups such as Sadhappy and the many different versions of what would become Pearl Jam; along with numerous people from the regional jazz, folk, world music and singer-songwriter genres (Chuck Metcalf, Bill Davie, Laura Love, Erin Corday). By 1990 REALTIME was running the only 120-unit pro- Nakamichi tape duplication system in Washington, cranking out over 2000 crispy hot chrome cassettes a day for all sorts of wide-eyed, innocent Northwest musicians. The business soon began to offer Compact Disc manufacturing services in addition to cassette duplication as demand for the five-inch disc blossomed. By the mid 90's CD manufacturing had become the mainstay of the company, and REALTIME had developed a reputation for excellent quality, know-how, service and fair dealing in a local industry which oftentimes came up short in these categories. Over the last half of the 90's decade Pip established REALTIME as one of the most prominent CD & CDRom duplication companies in the Northwest. Clients included Popllama Records (The Presidents of the USA, The Posies, Young Fresh Fellows, The Picketts, Fastbacks ), DC Comics ( Batman & Robin Styleguides), Saltmine Creative, RealNetworks, Swamp Mama Johnson, Microsoft Corporation, Corbis Corporation, Fastrax, Amy Denio, JZK Inc., KCTS, KING, Seattle Opera, Seattle Youth Symphony, Black Cat Orchestra, Super Sonic Soul Pimps, King Sunny Ade, Aaron Parks - and many others. During the last year of the century the company phased-out its venerable real-time cassette duplication service to concentrate on short-run CDR & DVD manufacturing and the ever-popular CD & CD-ROM packages. REALTIME has continued to nurse a vibrant niche market since the dawn of the new millennium.
