The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

I'm working on a Scully LS-76 and the preview time on it is 1,8 seconds for 33.3 rpm and 1.3 seconds for 45 rpm, I use Nuendo/Cubase and make one file/track for the program and take a copy of that and make a new track as preview, I then just move the program file with 1.3 or 1.8 seconds so that it s...

Here's some photos of my MCI JH 110 M, with preview head. Notice there is no record button. It would probably not be so easy to ask Beatles to go back in studio and start all the recording all over again, because the cutter person accidentally pressed record over the master tape (Though, I believe t...

- When two grooves overlap or touch as a result of overmodulation. Twinning is also caused by improper groove-to-land ratios or defective lead screw.
