This might be a bit vague, but does anyone have any tips for mastering for vinyl? I know that vinyl has quite a bias towards certain frequencies, and that certain bass frequencies can cause problems with the stylus, but my knowledge is fairly limited in this area.

No-one? Or am I just dumb?

Sorry, havent been around. The guy that cuts the vinyl will have a limiter and an eq there that he might use. Otherwise we generally master for CD and that usually works unless there are a lot of bass or super high frequencies. Also leaving a bit more dynamics in the recording is a good idea. Theres not much to it from this end.
