Manufacture of cylinders records, and recording setup.

Post by edisonphonoworks »

The cylinder records now are double spiral and I use an aocustic process for recording. By using different diaphragms and weights, heat, leverage and dampening materials, very good recording can be had, much better in fact that the dubbed blue Amberols, and better results than with electrical dubbing. This week I put out quite a bit of recordings, and they were smooth, bright and warm at the same time,punchy and clear. Any questions.

The proper amount of heat applied to the blank issues the proper amount of contineous swarf, and a lot of it. Working on a recording for a museum who is preserving music on cylinder, a popular medium sill with archivists.
