Обозначения в каталогах и изданиях, используемые лэйблом:

Префикс:
The first part of a catalog number is a prefix that contains a variation of "AD," based on the 4AD name. Some standards are:
* AD = single
* BAD = EP
* CAD = Full length LP
* DAD = Double LP
Some other "AD" variations have been used less frequently over the years, including (but not limited to):
* EAD = Electronic download
* GAD = reissue (usually mid-priced)
* HAD = remastered or significantly altered reissue (usually with some combination of bonus tracks, re-mastering, or new artwork)
* JAD and MAD = "mini album" that is longer than an EP but shorter than an LP
* SAD = Super Audio CD release (as in the recent Dead Can Dance 2008 remastered reissues)
* TAD = temporary release
