The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

The second channel of audio isn't present in that previous video, it had the sound from the motor- something went wrong in the upload- just keep an eye on the pulleys and slider number 9.
Cheers.

Thanks guys, it means alot! :D Here's a vid of volume driving the motor. Look at slider 9 in the maxuino patch at the bottom left of screen. I'll show you how I achieved this sometime... I'm still figuring out how to implement the other factors properly. This system will allow multiple lathes to run...

I've just been successful in making the Maxuino midi clip follow the volume information from an audio clip in real time. This means that the pulse width modulation going to the motor is driven directly by the changes in audio volume. Great! It was easier than I thought it was going to be :D I will p...

Thanks fellas! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSENUgelA84&feature=youtu.be LSENUgelA84 This quick video is to show the pitch motor being controlled by midi clip envelopes. I still need to sort out many aspects of this pitch controller. At the moment I have to draw in the automation envelopes by han...

I have to agree with Stevie here. I haven't posted lots yet but I do intend to... I have read the majority of discussion on the forum and you come off as quite negative in general. You seem quick to accuse, take offence and hijack threads in your own interest. You have been caught with your foot in ...

Here is a quick and dirty proof of concept for my pitch controller. Track volume automating midi to control pulse width modulation for pitch motor. Ableton- Max for Live- Maxuino-USB serial port- Arduino- electronic speed control- bldc motor... 8c9aZbduexs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c9aZbduexs...

Glad to help!

James Sillitoe SP10MKII Lathe MKII.jpg Sillitoe SP10MKII Lathe MKII.jpg Here's another lathe I'm working on for my other SP10MKII. The plinth and mechanics are from a huge NUR Tempo II billboard printer. I was recently given a rare opportunity to scrap two massive printers for parts and this lathe ...

That's the MKIII you're thinking of, the MKIIs are a mere 6kg-cm...

Thanks guys! I can't detect any pitch variation on playback via SL1200MKII , it seems very stable. I made my experimental heads to weigh roughly the same as the 285gram aluminium Caruso. So far I've been cutting with the steel triangles from Jerry both with and without heating lamps, I've played a b...

Very nice, x64 working well! Great work man.
Thank you!

Still no joy here for either 8 or 9. Cheers for the customer support.

Awesome, thanks very much!

I'm running Live 8 and 9 32bit 2.4ghz quad 2011 17" mbp, same on 2009 2.8ghz quad 27" imac.
Cheers

_MG_1944.jpg _MG_1942.jpg This is made from a sliding compound mitre saw base and arm running on linear bearings. The saw base (that houses the linear bearings) is mounted within the plinth and has thick felt on top of it. The TT is mounted on top of it via M5 threaded rods running the depth of the...

Thanks but Live 8 and 9 aren't seeing it in OSX 10.6.8 I've tried both programs on two different machines. I put it in the vst folder and tried dragging it too, the only thing it seems to want to open with is Cycling 74 Max. (but I only have Max for Live in Ableton and it won't open within that eith...

OSX doesn't seem to open the file... Any tips?

Cheers mate!

Hi Hoodratmystic. Nice crank, but that lead screw looks too short (not enough travel) to move a cutter head from the outside edge of an LP to the label edge. To get a decent understanding of how record lathes work you need to do lots and lots of reading and searching of the forum, watch as many vide...
