Lathe Cut Camp! Tucson, August 2-4, 2015
I happened through Nashville during Welcome to 1979's "Tape Camp", and it inspired me to do a similar thing for the DIY lathe cut enthusiast. So, I am! Here are the details!
Book here! http://www.LatheCutCamp.com
Spend three days in scenic Tucson, AZ learning (almost) everything you need to know about DIY Record Cutting! The focus of this camp will be on mono "semi-professional" machines, with particular focus on Presto 6Ns, which are one of the most common and affordable vintage machines around. You can do some amazing things with these incredible machines, and I will show you how. Bring your own music and we will put it onto discs for you to take home. We will touch on professional record mastering/pressing, but my main interest and experience, and the focus of this camp will be on the more DIY and experimental side of the hobby. There are only 8 spots available, so buy early!
Perfect if you are interested in:
Vinyl records and how their masters are cut
Learning how this strange black art works
Buying a lathe to make your own records
Ordering lathe cuts from a lathe cut service
Cutting your own music to disc
Topics covered:
The science behind vinyl record cutting
Lathe Operations and equipment
The pressing process
Lacquer dub plate cutting
Experimental and alternative materials (plexiglass, laserdiscs, picnic plates, etc)
ADD ONS:
Potluck Audio Conference (Formerly Tapeop Convention): This incredible audio conference is full of recording and music industry professionals coming together to share information and have a good time. This takes place the Friday and Saturday before Lathe Cut Camp and has offered Lathe Cut Camp Attendees a special rate, only $40 for a two day pass that includes keynote speakers, panels, tradeshows, live musical performances, Casita Gear Crawl, and plenty more. Some food and beer is included.

Amazing! I'd love to be there but I'm too far. Any chance of repeating it in January after Winter NAMM? (I'll be in the US by then)
Kind regards
