voicewriter - cylinder version
I have the 74000 electronic cylinder recorder. It is very temperamental. At the moment, it won't cut a groove. But it's a bit cold now to be fooling with cutting wax. Lacking a supply of replacement parts, this antique office equipment is perfect for the clever tinkerer.

Re: Thomas Edison Voicewriter
Have you gotten anywhere with yours?
I've one with no wires and am wanting to get it running and control it with external controls -yet don't know what pins do what.
Mine is a VPD-3
seems near impossible to find info on these... why
