newbie from holland

This is where record cutters raise questions about cutting, and trade wisdom and experiment results. We love Scully, Neumann, Presto, & Rek-O-Kut lathes and Wilcox-Gay Recordios (among others). We are excited by the various modern pro and semi-pro systems, too, in production and development. We use strange, extinct disc-based dictation machines. And other stuff, too.

as opposed to a discussion, im assuming it will be as close to factual information as gleaned from the discussions here.
would we revamp that older wiki, or make a new one?
I'll probably revamp the older wiki...

wow, this looks promising, surely it's not me who instigated this, hahaha ...
but it will save all newbies a lot of time! and you guys answering the same ol' questions over and over again.

Piaptk if you need any help writing about anything I'd love to help. I just finished read the beginning 8 chapters of Oliver Read's book "The Recording and Reproduction of Sound, 2nd ed." and would be interested in contributing to the home recorder section of this proposed Wiki. PM me if you'd like some help.

Ok, I got it started, sort of. It reminded me why I quit writing a blog. It takes too damn long! haha.

Anyway, everyone feel free to go and add/subtract whatever, and I will edit it as I get some free time.

Once we have a good reference established, we will list it as a sticky or something.
