How Vinyl Records Are Made

I love that records are back

The dog does help. 🙂

Putting the music into grooves is quite complicated. For exemple, the bass frequencies are removed because they would make the grooves so big the needle would skip continually. Then the record player (the one you have at home) boosts back the bass frequencies so you can hear them. And that is just a part of it...

To me records seem like a futuristic technology. Stamping wave files on a big disc and then playing them with a needle while it spins. Yet it’s been around 100 years.

This material kindles deep intellectual curiosity. A book I read with related ideas was highly stimulating. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint

He 'feels' like he is part of the process. That is SO sweet.

horrible video

luna the mvp 🏆

Is the music stored on the sides of the groove or at the bottom of the groove? Or is the music recorded on the entire groove? Thanks for your video and hard work making vinyl records.

Технический интерес: когда записывается звук на диск, то аудио-шероховатости на периферии диска должны быть более растянуты вдоль дорожки, а ближе к центру шероховатости должны наоборот - быть более сжаты вдоль звуковой дорожки. Чтобы звук на протяжении звучания музыки звучал с одинаковой скоростью. (Как я это понимаю).
Но ведь это по-моему сложно: достигнуть разности растянутости шероховатостей. Не так ли ?
Или всё просто ?

this is the worst " how something is made " video ever

CZECHOSLOVAKIA VINIL PATENT :-)

I wanna see someone take a blank vinyl, and carve a song out of it.

I observe that the title of this video is incorrect.

This video is all over the place

WOW GOOD STUFF!!

Wait until china take his job.

Not the best video to understand how its pressed.

I disagree. Luna helps a lot by being a source of positive energy in the office

Fantastic 👍

sound mastering is terrible on this video

The guy who owns the place seems a few lemons short of a lemon party

the most replayed parts of this video is when the puerto rican girl come on 😂😂😂

dog

Dude looks like Voldermort/Ralph Fiennes

audio in this video is horrible. ironic, huh.

How in the world did people make these before Spotify

I’m curious on why they stay them? Doesn’t that warp the record?

the dog definitely helps, they did her dirty lol

what are you talking about Luna is probably the most important member of the crew

Luna does help. She gives emotional support.

i love vinyl feels like pure music

Fun fact: Even if you turn down your speakers all the way, you can still here the music playing very quietly as the needle reads the record

I've lived through vinyl, 8 track, cassette tapes and cds... but I gotta say NOTHING beats Digital. NOTHING.

Imagine the years it took to first develop vinyl, the technology needed to even manufacture a single vinyl, just to play a Drake album.

Polyesterine records have no paper label, the text is pressed in the record and readable, because there is a layer of paint on the surface.
Would something like this be possible on PVC records?

It was a gap between the decision, that nobody wants records and the Renaissance of vinyl. So much people who had experience in the 1970's died, the equipment is vintage.
By the way, the CD was pushed by degrading the records, they were thinner, singles were made of brittle, cheap polystyrene, there was the attempt to imitate the CD sound, more treble, more distortion.
I hope, the quality level is like the 1970's.
One question, can you use the DMM technology, where the master record is done in copper, so there is no need for any coating?

There's a trap question, how many grooves has a record.
It's one groove per side - when the record follows the standard.
Because it's possible, that a record can contain multiple grooves on one side.
One example are miracle or surprise records or maybe a sports game, you have three or more grooves parallel and it's randomly, what groove you will hear.
Another example is a record for broadcast use, every song or jingle ends in a loop, you can't play the whole record side continuously, but this is intentional.
Number 3 is a stereo process, using two grooves and playing them parallel with a tonearm, what is equipped with 2 cartridges.

such a non-informative chaotic video

Love how they gloss over making the grooves. You know the groves have to be different for each song/album. How they doing that insider?

This is a bad video ngl

what about shellac?

Still no wiser

They don't show the master fabrication and the absolutely enormous amplifier they use to crave the the tracks. It's not a joke it's actually made like this.

Insider usually makes such good videos, this was a total letdown. I came expecting to see how the grooves were cut in, instead I watched 5 seconds of a dog that was totally unrelated. The video didn't flow well either, really a mess of cut together bits. Very sad
