Automatic groove speed controller for VR

This is where record cutters raise questions about cutting, and trade wisdom and experiment results. We love Scully, Neumann, Presto, & Rek-O-Kut lathes and Wilcox-Gay Recordios (among others). We are excited by the various modern pro and semi-pro systems, too, in production and development. We use strange, extinct disc-based dictation machines. And other stuff, too.

Someone should bundle it up with the PERFECT GROOVE software that was made free a year ago or so, that would be amazing, it would analyze and you could set the PITCH gates through your daw that directly would work on the variable DC bench supply.

I mean this isn't that big of a cake to do or?

Or even better with the simulathe vst because it’s easier to use in real time

I am really excited about this thread!

BUT.... does that port only allow two options, follow the LPI pot or function at full speed?
I'm also curious about that. Is it possible to make variable pitch by using this port?

Thanks,
Bob
Yes, normally there is a jumper... pull it out and it bypasses the pot.

Hi,

Yep! I'm not sure if the motor is expected to operate over the 100:1 or more speed range needed to run all LPI's e.g lead-in's and lead-out up to 300 lpi during cutting.

You'd be lucky... dc motors give 10:1 at best I think?
