Frequently asked questions
Is DeadWax free?
DeadWax is free to download with core features included. An optional premium upgrade unlocks advanced stats, unlimited entries, and more.
What does "dead wax" mean?
The dead wax (or run-out groove) is the blank area near a vinyl record's label. Pressing plants often etch secret messages or matrix numbers there — it's a hidden piece of each record's story.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Your collection is stored on-device. Browse and edit without a connection — everything syncs when you're back online.
