No I'm not Cryoing vinyl now.
Never heard anyone doing it. What would it sound like?

I would not even consider doing cryo on vinyl.  There are too many stress risers in the medium.

It supposedly can and has been done.  I've never done it; have just been too nervous. Perhaps I'll experiment with it someday. The first ones would definitely be records I was not in love with.

I would think that immersion cryo would be out of the question and that vapour would be more appropriate in this situation. My cryo vendor does vapour so it would not be a problem.

Yeah, I think that the vapor process would be a better choice.  Full immersion cryo gets colder, but is not very forgiving on molded parts.
