I think this is the first time in recent history (probably since 1929) that an original Edison studio recording head is working. I am using it to record catalog and live records with. It has taken a lot of research to make it work, I keep working on the carriage (not original to the recorder) to make it work better, I will post a vid of the latest version of the carriage. This recorder uses an advance ball, and floats on the blank. The more true the blanks are the better your recording, as any variations can cause the stylus to dig deep in spots, and not in others. I will be excited to do some live recording with it, would love to get some musicians together and cut some masters for moulded release. It seems the existing Edison studio heads, are all missing something, weather it is the diaphragm or cutting stylus. I will post more vids, of the new carriage in action. http://youtu.be/jtAJNo-YhSE http://youtu.be/MpVHs5nTa_k http://youtu.be/tipCmvpuaaE _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org
