As a few people have pointed out, AppleOranges12 is actually going back to first principles of sound reproduction. The needle feeds the newspaper horn, which amplifies the sound like a megaphone. If there was a spring motor to run the turntable at a consistent speed, we'd have a party. :) And to address the other "controversy": yes, even at the correct angle, a heavier playback mechanism definitely wears records out faster. That's how it happened in great grandpa's days, anyway.

I've actually tried with a turntable styli but the record seemed to have suffered from a little grey grooving afterwards when inspected under bright lighting. Despite this, the sound quality does not appear to have been compromised. My conclusion is that uneven styli pressure plays a part in wearing a record down.

The fact records make sound will forever be pure wizardry to me

You are doing not too bad a job at regulating the speed, nice work! I used to enjoy doing this too, bit of humour, good to surprise people who don't know what records are haha

It astounds me that people are this amazed by what he's doing. He's basically recreating exactly what the old gramophones and phonographs did. What, did you think that in the 1800's they used to plug it into the fucking wall? The fact that people actually think this video is FAKE is even more dumbfounding. I don't care who you are, everyone should know that records date back well over a hundred years; before things like electricity were used for such purposes. It's obvious then that the sound existing within the records (whether it be a '78, '33 or even a wax cylinder), is generated through vibration. Then again, I suppose these things may not be common knowledge to the younger generations. However, it would only seem appropriate that this video would be viewed primarily by those interested in records; anyone who at least meets that criteria should have half a sense about them in terms of what this video is.

Sshhhhh..cool down baby

I've been trying to put together an idea of how to continuously supply constant steady rotational power to the record shaft.. best I can figure for an all powerless system, is utilizing one of those key crank style clockwork spring motors that release at a slow controlled rate, found in wind up clocks, and toys. - As for the needle damaging a record, couldn't one just be coated in a very fine film of a higher heat point wax? With a fine film I imagine the sound quality would still be mostly acceptable with some experimentation of waxes. - Lastly, speaker cone, I would suggest some kind of firmer cardboard/paper with a thicker exterior layer, it's rigidity will help carry sound, and the thick exterior layer will help prevent sound from bleeding through. Also, a progressively long and widening cone should make for the best sound balance. - Attach all of the pieces in a removable fashion to a solid base structure, and you have yourself a pretty sweet little apocalypse sound system👍

dude that is so sick, nice work!

Quite ingenious. A Cardtalk is easier to play, but uses the actual Victrola needles (sometimes called iron nails) which wears out the record slowly. Also, any hand-operated speed control is going to be variable - which works better for spoken voice than for singing. There's a video by PhonographBlue of an actual Cardtalk; and another from India showing the basics of making one. The Cardtalk is 24" X 8" but could be made another size. Just remember, for better volume, the tubes in the cardboard should go lengthwise (24" long each tube), not crosswise (8" long each tube). And the cruder the nail you use for your needle, the faster the record wears away. It should be hard steel with a VERY fine point. [You can go to the Victrola needle page for info (on 78s we used needles many times - but that was on pure vinyl records) and click on the suppliers link to buy their needles.]

John Stuart I am writing all of that down. Thanks. Very informative, my dude.

Use a similar setup in reverse with a roll of wax (or something) to record incoming soundwaves through the cone into grooves, instead of playing them from grooves on the vinyl. I love physics.

that is sooo cool. i also love records.. i just tried the paper one a few minutes ago, mind you mine wasnt that good, but it worked somewhat. AWSOME!!

I have some old vinyl records that I got from a thrift store, will be trying this!!

A 78 record made before vinyl was mae out of Clay, wax and Shallec. Sometimes fine metal filings. It was made this way to sharpen the new needle while playing. but generally the needle needed to be changed eacj time the record was played

I tried this on a Christmas record my parents don't care about. It works. It's really creepy though.

@worldatwar117 You'd use a holder on the bottom of the pencil. Something small to just fit the bottom of the pencil EXACTLY. The bottom of (preferred type of stick) should also be quite smooth so it can spin gently.

Good work. I like it :)

Very interesting record project you created here!!...Friends, Lloyd.

Listening to music during Corona

You can pour water mixed with chocolate syrup, baking soda, and sardine oil on the record, and then put it in a freezer for 20 minutes. Then, peel the coating off the record, and shine a laser pointer on the grooves. Let the laser reflection bounce onto a paper cone (like an ice cream cone wrapper) and you'll hear the record. You can make the sound louder by placing an AA cell inside the cone.

I use to do that with my fingernail on the turntable. It was the best way to fix a scratch skip. This is why I've always said a record is alive, all it takes is a voice (a needle, your fingernail) to pick up the sound

@SuperNickid

@Texjones8540: Actually don't do that you can make more scratches on the record, and also break your nail, or worst damage the gruve worst then a Crossly Record player. To understand why the sound also comes out when you used your own finger nail, it as nothing to do with the record being alive, it is just what is considered analog, instead of digital, take a look a the record, you notice that it look like a bunch of tiny bumb or really tiny scratches, does are not tiny bumb or tiny scratches at all, they only look like this because it is way to small to see what they are, they are really microscopic holes that the record needle did during recording to print the song being played in the studio, and make the same holes as the audio wave pick-up from the song, so when you play the record instead the needle vibrate in does holes making the exact sound wave of the music previously recorded.

this video is so anemoia

Even gramophones mess up the records, because the mechanism is the same: the grooves touch a metallic needle and make it vibrate, but at the same time the needle touches and deteriorates the grooves.

I want to know what McCartney talks about

That record is probably old as dirt and still works just fine.

That's incredible! Though I can see why you wouldn't want to make it a regular habit. :P

excellent idea, that way we dont destroy the disc that fast.

its not the material that you use for the needle,a wood toothpick wont work,its how much pressure you use,the original needles are basically iron spikes,that sewing needle wont really hurt these charcoal records,what he has there is better than what they were originally played on.with vinyl records it will do damage,but if your looking for softer material for a needle,most record players(*good ones*)use diamond tip needles,they just don't rest much weight on the record to redefine the grooves.

we used to have record player like that. in the old days that used no electricity.

@Elektriber no.. this is not something he came with the idea this idea is already done 100 years ago! The first record players didn't use electricity and were just a turning mechanisme that you had to wind up and then put the needle on it... I builded my own one to... i will try to upload a vid about it for you :)

when that music starts to play it reminds me of fallout 3. good times

Amazing you can spin a pencil at a near constant 78 rpm

It'd be fun to play anti-records in this method.

records store sound using viabrations on the grooves and all it takes is a needle nd some thig that will amplify the sound to replay not diital stuff that needs electricity
