I hope at some point the Free Press or D.News does a feature on Ron.
He touched so many lives, including mine. I paid Ron to cut a
record, but getting your record cut was only part of the deal. You
got techno anecdotes -- in my case, including Ron's impression of Jeff
Mills sputtering in
This is my recollection of Ron's story: He had been fooling with the
lathe and figured out how to stop the screw action that pushes the
cutting head from the outside to the inside of the platter. Then
cutting a locked groove is a matter of tuning the source matterial to
exactly 133 1/3 bpm,

at night and borrow the 909? Or are all the beatboxes in the museum

I think he means the pitch of the sound goes higher and higher. Something you would hear a lot in an orchestra, particularly from brass instruments comes to my mind. Jaguar is a good example like he says.

In the context of the podcast (and the tracks he's talking about) it
sounds like he means something more like buildups and breakdowns. In
more 'proper' musical terms he's talking about adding layers of
instrumentation to increase both the volume level and musical
intensity.
In 'proper' musical
I wonder if he's actually referring to something in the mastering process,
ie his terminology is based around his equipment...maybe he's looking at
an oscilloscope or something while that track is playing back???

No, he was pretty clearly talking about music at that point.
Ron didn't have an oscilloscope in his cutting room when I was there.
He uses his ears, and as far as I know he checks for phase problems by
looking at the grooves under a microscope.
As for equipment, all I saw was some SAE graphic
