Just done cab calloway , how many people are making jazz discs, amazing I love early jazz and blues as well very old early country. Thanks from the white lion in Swaziland.
Thanks for the amazing and interesting video! Where can I buy new record cutting heads for this Gakken toy record maker? Blank vinyls and used CDs are easy to get, but cutting heads I have no idea.
@@andystaffyman3711 I’ve found some in eBay, but was wishing to find something other than discontinued and fewer and fewer replacement parts. I really like this thing and would like to cut more vinyl with it.
@@nnewt8445 I've long been interested in home recording & have indeed used an Edison Standard Phonograph to make recordings on wax cylinders, much as they did in the 1900's. I have no kids to keep me updated, but am certainly interested form of recording on stuff like old cd's etc. Like the acoustic 'cartridges' I viewed on your channel!
Thing is, why waste a good CD on this, when the spindle-pack of 50 blank CDs have a clear plastic disc at the bottom of the stack that you could use. Some of those plastic discs are also black! Fun fact! When Emile Berliner first invented his disc-playing gramophone, the discs were the same diameter as the modern Compact Disc, and were only recorded on one side.
Yes, when I'm embossing my playback level is low, when i turn it up i get quite a bit of background/surface noise. but yours seems very clean even when you crank it up.
First of all, you're holding the tone arm incorrectly. You must always use the lever on the outside to lift and gentley place the tone arm on the record.
@@nundata this person obviously has nothing better to do than to than be a Debbie the downer.. I’ve been putting needles on records for 40 years (in my home and DJing) and I’ve never told anyone how in the hell to put their tone arm on a record. In fact I don’t think anyone told me how to put a tone arm on a record except when I was four years old and I had a Bugs Bunny record player and I was shown how to use it..

@@jonuno cool thank you I appreciate it
@@Gurkenkasper Thank you Christopher, very cool!
Interesting it sounds amazing 👏 👌
Glad you think so!
how many records u manage to make with one needle? i see some people say ten max... but is sound only degraded after ten ? or its totaly useless?
i polish the disc so helps to get a bit less wear on needdle but i think prob 10 / 15
What measurement did you use in the recording arm to record on a cd? Thanks
just a bit heavy and polish disk
man domany do you polish it before cutting?
@@uprightdoublebass yes i do mate . the same when im cutting a 12 inch 78 rpm on a proper lathe
Hmmmm Im sure I got a box of a 100 CD's somewhere??? lol Good vid mate!! Free n Easy!!
It sounds alot better when you cut it on the CD 💿 interesting 🤔 😉 😏
Fantastic result! When were these toys produced?
paul harrison thay were out this year i think
@@andystaffyman3711 Wow! Wonder how well they sell? Our kids wouldn't know what a record player looks like :-)
@@tiga4180 So... have your kids never seen a TV show or movie in their lives? Because I learned about record players from watching TV and movies.

How you getting so much volume onto the disc

Yes, when I'm embossing my playback level is low, when i turn it up i get quite a bit of background/surface noise. but yours seems very clean even when you crank it up.
The same question I have too. Also, what we can use as stylus instead of original one for CDs engraving?
Where can i buy that recorder?

who cares
@@nundata i do. As a record player owner, I-use the lever to line up the needle to the grooves and use the cue lever to set it down gently .
