The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

Also I finally had some time to finish the website, everything is up and running, you may check additional informations on the GM1 System here:

Thank you for your support, also great job too !!!
Yes for sure we agree it is a lot of work..
Concerning your question, I'm currently not planning to implement physical music output connectors to the controller but we never know )

This is in my plans, but I have to do tests on those units to check all details as i did on the T560..

Yes GM-1 is available for order, first units already shipped, website is on the way

digital RIAA is already implemented inside the GM-1 CPU, you can choose in the settings either you want him to apply RIAA eq to the SPDIF input or not (to permit adaptation in any case, you can that way supply preview signal PRE-RIAA or POST-RIAA)

It's almost straightforward to use once your system is well calibrated: There is two main modes, manual pitch and variable pitch mode that can be switched even when in cut. When starting a new cut, you first choose the size of the vinyl and the RPM on the setup menu, once you have chosen those value...

Greetings !! After a lot of work i can give you a sneak preview of what will be released in a few weeks, here are some pics of the new user interface. https://sawasoundengineering.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/PXL_20210413_115318082-scaled.jpg https://sawasoundengineering.com/wp-content/uploads/202...

I give thanks to each & everyone for your support ! Yes we do have some news on the hardware pitch system. It's been two years since i'm developping & enhancing the system. We use it everyday and i bring constant upgrades. For the release version, a lot of changes & upgrades has been done. Here is t...

Greetings, I'm coding last details of the plugin before release (licensing system, gear parameters, reference levels & serial port to use accessible on front end) and writing the user manual with all informations for the communication protocol. We did tested the plugin on hundreds of cuts and everyt...

The plugin needs to communicate via Serial port (usb) with a microcontroller that drives the pitch motor. It doesn't controls directly souri's motor. So for those who wants to get it now and interface it themselves with their own pitch drivers, i can provide you a version of it, you can send me PM o...

it is actually implemented on a gear system, i bypassed the original pitch motor that is too limited.. So yes, i can make the gear ratio parameter accessible for changes on the user interface. We are potentially limited by the positional accuracy of the driver you'll use, wow and flutter of the plat...

Mostly with Arduino or similar, i use it on a T560. I think the pitch signal format can be easily adapted to other lathes..

Hello everyone there, First of all, i'd like to thanks each & everyone who is contributing to this great place ! It's been some time now since I started developing new technologies for cutting records, that i will probably introduce to you in the future. One of them is a new variable groove controll...
